Me: Confirm karo yar Vietnam kab chalna hai?

Tejas: We need a mini trip before that. How does the Delhi-Nepal roadtrip sound?

Me: How about Delhi-Lucknow-Varanasi roadtrip?

Gourab: I have been wanting to do a dhaba hopping roadtrip from Delhi to Amritsar. What say you guys?

Me: Punjab? Although I am a Punjabi who has never been there, I have no interest in visiting that place. It's not my thing. We can eat the same food in Delhi anyway.

Gourab: Chal le na yar please. I really really want to do this.

Tejas: I am in. 

Me: Ughhhh. Ok.

Tejas: I need a photo in a field full of sunflowers. Eshan, you must be knowing where we can find such fields, right?

Eshan: Of course yes. I will even let you drive the damn tractor which we have in our fields.

8 Hours in Jaipur. Summed Up.

Areas Covered: Jaipur (6/10/2017)

Rajasthan isn't new to me nor am I to it. Jaipur is one of those cities that I would gladly take a trip to in North India any given day primarily for two reasons; A. I could drive down from Delhi and B. they have some of the best food to offer 

FYI: Good food and driving are the two basis of my existence.

So unlike the 5 times in the past when I visited Rajasthan which were planned to cover a number of locations, this wasn't one of those. This was actually a trip for business that left me time to explore the beautiful city again...........
