Rather than up the Indian map, today I travelled back down, to Delhi.
And all because I should have applied for a Chinese visa the last time I was here. Instead I thught it’d be nice to escape to the moutains, forgetting completely that while we might have found a way for Dot to get in, [...]

Welcome to Nathan’s geography lesson, brought to you live from the staircase of the Roof Top Guesthouse, Delhi.
If you can make any sense of what I’m waffling about then please email and clarify it all for me. I’m getting confused by it all.

Evening all,
Just to let you know I’m still Delhi being harassed into buying all sorts of things I would never need, with tomorrow being the day I try and get some answers on this elusive Iranian visa.

Hi guys, I know it’s been a while since I last posted any pics but connection here in India’s not the slickest but finally I think I’ve managed it, fingers crossed.
We’re still in Agra, had to stay an extra day as I felt just too ropey to ride. Don’t know what it is, maybe dehydration [...]

Morning all, just a quick one as I’ll jump on later with some photos and hopefully a video from the other day.
