The busride from Hell

Now we have experienced a busride here in India. And it was luxoriuos after their standards. After our...? Not so much. The road was bumpy as hell, the bus was sweaty and I had a hard time beliving the busdriver knew where he was going because he stopped every once in a while and asked for directions. It was interesting, but I hope I don't have to do that again for a while.

So now we are back in Goa. We have been to Panaji, which is the capital of Goa. It was nothing new there. We are staying in north Goa at a beach called Calangua beach, or something like that =). It is nice here. But to hot. I will not get the tan I wanted due to the fact that it is simply to hot to lie in the sun.

I will have a huge cultural chock when I get back to Finland, when there is nobody staring at me or wanting to take my picture. Yesterday I went alone on the beach. Or well, I did not get to be alone for long, guys came to talk with me all the time. There was this one dude who worked there nearby, and he told me to come and sit at their sunbeds. And I did. It was better, the guys left me mostly alone there. Exept for this one guy, who came and asked me if his friend can take a picture of us together... And then there were a couple of men who took my picture without asking.

Then today me and mr.T went and took a swim in the ocean. There was this one dude who sent his son to stand beside me so he could take a picture. They tried to do it without me noticing, but I did. And then there where also about 4-5 guys who took a picture. But when mr.T is with me, they leave me alone... Actually mr.T and I came up with the great idee, that we should sell me on the beach so we could afford to stay here longer. In Mumbai last week, there was this guy who tried to buy me for 600 rupies. That is about 9,50 euros. I feel a little bit cheap...

Well, we decided to stay here until we take the train to Mumbai on thursday evening. We went to get the train tickets today. There was this waiting room, that was very hot and the air was lacking oxygen. This guy stood there and filled his form, when I heard that he dropped his pen, I looked over and saw him fell over. He blacked out. He fell head first right to the floor. The sound when his head hit the floor was nasty. I felt really bad for him...

I think that is all for now. Now it is time to get some food.
