The Maldives and one last sip of sea - March 23rd to 29th 2017

If there was a country which we did not expect to visit during our adventure between Singapore and France, the Maldives totally was! Not on the way, not for backpackers…

Crossing the Arabian sea - The movie

Who knew we would end up in a cruise ship for the most difficult part of our adventure! Crossing the Arabian sea had been a challenge from the beginning of our trip. Our plan to take a cargo ship had been countered by Indian immigration. We were stuc…

India by boat - March 19th to 22th 2017

I have to admit this part of the trip happened to be much more interesting than what we expected in terms of sociology. We went from our hotel room in a super popular neighborhood of Mumbai, with rats and garbage, to a shiny cruise boat, full…

Rajasthan - February 15th to March 1st 2017

Agra - February 12th to 14th 2017

It was by chance that we ended up in Agra to celebrate our ten years together.
