These 'cyclos' as they are called is one of the common means of transportation in the city. Mostly for tired foreigners that is. The cyclo drivers exploit the foreigners to the max by asking them for higher fares and by promising them a quick tour of the city. One driver drove me insane by trailing behind me for at least 10 minutes. I was feeling so harassed that I had to go into a shop and pretend to browse for some time in order to shake off his annoying presence.
I love travelling and so far I have been to a few countries. But I have not been wise enough and kept a travel diary. I missed out on recording and sharing so many experiences. Each place has it's own sounds, smells and looks. Each town, in each place is so unique. It occurred to me that the best thing is to keep a blog about my travels where I can write down my subjective impressions of a place as well as try and provide useful information about the place from personal experience. So here it is. Am beginning with my very first trip of 2009.
I also love photography and have recently taken it up a bit more seriously. My gallery is in constant progress so keep checking in time to time for new stuff... and new travels!
