PUSHKAR – GET BLESSED!
A charming oasis on the very edge of the Great Thar Desert, Pushkar is one of those places where you come for a day and end up spending a week.
I still remember my first impressions of the place – a small jewel in the navel of India, all ablaze with its colourful mix of pilgrims, hippies, merchants and holy men, its outdoor menagerie of cows, pigs, dogs and monkeys, and most of all its unique blen Read more of this blog post »

| I’ve read quite a few of Fred’s books now, and this is probably my favourite. Fresh, funny, and extremely well-edited/written, it tells of a summer of love and coming of age which shaped a young man’s future in a way that mirrors my own experience. W ...more | |

himself, at the suggestion of his wife Madge, he signs up for a training course at the local home health care agency. After some time of waiting for wo" Read more of this review » |

The Clueless Companion: My Diaries with Dennis (Frank's Travel Memoirs Book 7):
"An eye-opener
I have always enjoyed reading Frank Kusy’s travel memoirs, ever since I discovered ‘Kevin and I in India’. Being of a similar age, his books bring back memories of my travel days in Asia at around the same time. Frank’s sense of humour a" Read more of this review » |

| Through this cathartic, and totally absorbing, book Tony is evidently trying to understand – and to forgive – a needy, narcissistic, idealistic father who was neglectful, obsessive, and driven by demons. Demons which compel him to take risks and to e ...more | |
“My meal arrived. It was a bowl of tepid, green curried water with two spinach leaves floating in it. The waiter called it 'vegetable soup'. I called it inedible slop.”

“After a lifetime of soft, easy living in the West, one's buttocks take an awful hammering out here. Backpacking around India is just one long round of sitting on bone-hard, chafing, bruising and generally uncomfortable seats-whether in buses our trains, or restaurants or cinemas. There is no such thing as a padded seat in the whole country.”

“Few of us could speak the other's language, but all of us had by now discovered the lodge's unique 'outside toilet'…which transcended all national barriers. The lodge owner wouldn't let you use it unless you promised to lock yourself in with a special key. Everybody thought this odd, but they understood his concern once inside. The loo was just two parallel blocks of wood laid either side of a big hole in the floor. You went in, squatted down on the blocks, felt the gust of chill air wafting up your nether regions, looked through legs, and watched the bottom fall out of your world for a sheer drop of two thousand feet! The reason for locking the door was obvious. Any unwitting interloper who swung it inwards when you were squatting over that hole was certain to knock you off your perch and straight down it. And that would be a one-way trip to oblivion. With your trousers round your ankles”
