As the train berthed in Jaipur and we
fought over the price for an auto rickshaw before finally arriving to stay with
our couch surfing host Bhaumikk and his family. We are so grateful they took a
liking to us, because the following day Kara was ridden with a severe intestinal
sickness. Bhaumikk and his family took were amazing, feeding and hydrating and
offering many traditional medicines. It was pretty severe and after visiting hospital
(twice) the diagnoses was ‘rainy season’. When Kara was up and moving again we explored Jaipur (from the comfort of Bhaumikks air conditioned car) visiting several palaces and the famous Amber fort. Jaipur was hectic- but we were fortunate enough to get the local run down.
Tot siens,
John and Kara
