It’s been a while since we blogged, but Bhutan was quite a remote place with few connections with the internet; but what an amazing time we had there. In simple words the scenery is spectacular, the people are courteous, well-educated and welcoming, and it is an oasis of calm, particularly after India. We did spend […]

We had a great time in Shimla. It was warm, but not like the plains of India, and everywhere was walkable and traffic-free. We found some lovely coffee shops and bars to chill in, and generally relaxed after our first (almost) month in India. It was a good break as there has subsequently been a […]

India is fantastic, and we are enjoying ourselves tremendously, but there are things that have annoyed us. These include dust, driving and bureaucracy. This blog will start by addressing the three matters in a light-hearted way as they are all part of life here, and will end on a positive note by talking about the […]

Afer leaving Pushkar we went back to Delhi for a couple of days. We did some sight-seeing at Humayan’s Tomb (see Delhi pics) and the wonderful Lodi Gardens, but also met up with some traveller friends we had met previously to exchange ideas on where to go next. We dodged a bullet somewhat as we […]

Well what can we say so far. Well it’s hot, India is changing, and they are very holy. Agra was superb, but we then moved on to the Pink City of Jaipur. This is a city modernising very fast, with a new underground etc., but our hotel was stuck in the past. We believe that […]

We are loving this trip already. After we got used to the stifling heat (around 40 degrees) and the traffic and general hubbub, we have enjoyed Delhi and Agra enormously. There are loads of pictures on the Delhi and Agra pages if you’re interested. Our homes for the next 18 months Delhi was much […]

The blog title just about sums up the madness of the last 24 hours. Yesterday afternoon at this time we had just managed to complete packing the rucksacks – it was a bit of a push, but we managed to get everything in that we wanted. Then we bid fairwell to Reading, got on the […]

All of a sudden it feels as if Morzine is closed. Last week was the week of closing events with the restaurants, bars, and even the slopes themselves having closing parties. There was everything from hog roasts, to 80s and 90s discos, bands, and just free drinks. We took part in some, but there were […]

It is definitely the end of the season. Today, we are sitting here in 24 degrees of heat with brilliant sunshine and the snow is disappearing fast. Having said that we skied our 76th, and probably last, day yesterday and had excellent snow until lunchtime. It was so good in fact that our friend, Lucien, […]

We’re going green – well almost. Spring is definitely on the way and there has been plenty of sun and rain. This means that unfortunately in Morzine we have lost the snow and it has turned green. It still looks beautiful, but is is not as beautiful as when the white stuff is around. Then […]
