Welcome from Jan
Hi there!
This blog is for those who love both books and travel. I'm starting by travelling back in time to the 1970s and the overland trail to India which I took as an 18 year old. Have a look at my daily diary entries and photos. Some of these places are impossible to visit at the moment, but I can give you a flavour of what they were like in the golden age of the hippy trail.
The experience has inspired my new mystery novel, THE VANISHING OF RUTH, which is out now as an ebook. Find details and extracts at The Vanishing of Ruth
To buy: The Vanishing of Ruth
Also take a look at Facebook Page Overlanders for more memorabilia. http://bit.ly/Overlanders
HELP ME FIND MY FELLOW PASSENGERS! TAKE A LOOK AT THE GROUP PHOTO (post on 30th November 2009) AND CHECK THE NAMES ON THIS LINK: http://www.indiaoverland.biz/overland/passengers/sep26_76.html
Cheers, Jan.
The walk out to Swayambhunath from Kathmandu had me reaching for my Kodak instamatic. Here are some further photos of the rural route and the sights around the monkey temple of Swayambhu that compliment the previous post for Tuesday 21st December 1976.
