Traveling with Japlish - India Edition

japlishと旅~インド編~ | Japlish

2004, India

India is a country famous for the saying, "Once you go, you're hooked, or you never want to go back."

Just before summer vacation, a travel agency told me, "The Asian countries you can get tickets to now are Mongolia and India," so I went there.

In stark contrast to my last trip to America, I decided to travel without a set schedule or a guidebook.

There were loads of cows and goats on the streets, and monkeys even came onto the hotel balcony, so it was an exciting trip.

By the way, I didn't think about whether I wanted to go again or not, but I did go again 9 years later lol

In Old Delhi. I bought a turtle shell mask as a souvenir nearby.

A bridge near the Ganges in Varanasi. The Ganges is dirty, but I swam there! Then I got a haircut.

What was impressive about the Taj Mahal was the squirrels and monkeys in the gardens around it.
