As everybody keeps yelling that i never post anything on this blog.. well here's a little something!

First i thought i'd include a little map of the trip, generated on airtrecks.com.. it's not too accurate but it gives a rough sketch of where i'm supposed to go..


My recent trip in India (don't forget to check pictures at http://joune.free.fr/photos/thumbnails.php?album=20 !) taught me a few things..

• travelling with a guitar isn't that much of a hassle and can be really convienent when waiting for a train for 5 hours.. (it also works great with kids!)
• i didn't find time to post a single word on this blog in a month i was away.. not too good a sign!
• processing films in India for 20Rps a roll sounds like a great deal but i got all my films scratched!
• film quality does matter!.. how will i be able to buy quality films when i'm travelling??
• No use packing ten pairs of pants and 20 shirts.. you can live on a couple of pants and shirts for months , it's easier on your back.. and you'll end up buying stuff along the way anyway..
• 30 hours by train isn't such a big deal, at least in India.. there's always tons of things happening out the window and you can play the guitar to kids to kill time..

Mmm.. i guess i knew all that already.. what exactly was i trying to say in this post??

Oh and i checked

..later everyone.. next post in two months!
