Twenty ways to travel in India

I’m back…
​
Yes, I’m back, it’s been so long and now I am writing a guide called twenty ways to travel in India.  Are you ready for the most epic traveling guide of India? (let’s just say it is to make the intro cool) ready…
  1. If you are blond haired then get ready to be surrounded by cameras, my advice for this is if they want to take a pic just say we must go, and if you do want to take a selfie then more people will want selfies with you. Beware, they like to pitch your cheek.
  2. Now in India do not put tap water in your mouth, and that includes brushing your teeth, and drinking water and much more, one it does not taste nice, and two you might get a poorly tummy and you don’t want that do you.
  3. A lot of people think they will be staying in lovely hotels but if you are a real traveller then do not expect that, you will be able to stay in nice places because it’s very cheap, but my advice is don’t stay in those places if you want to have a real experience of India.
  4. There are millions of things to do in India, now you will not finish them all. What a lot of people do is go to temples all the time and that is one of my star pics, go to temples they are glorious. There are other things to do like go kayaking, climbing plus cricket with the Indian kids, one of my favourites and much more but come to India and find out for yourself.
  5. Everyone loves Tuc tuc’s but there is a price you should pay; a good price is 100 rupees if you are going 10 minutes, and if you’re going 5 minutes 50 rupees is a good price. Now you must watch out and tell the tuc tuc driver you’re going directly to the place you want to go because he might be taking you to lots of stores (where he gets a commission) to buy things and trust me you don’t want to be in that situation.
  6. One of the top things they do India is break the rules, so that means they will push into queues, go on the wrong way in the roads. No I mean it, they will go the wrong way, and much more. What’s so funny is they will have rules that you must follow, however they break a lot of rules. I just don’t get it and you won’t!
  7. Well, we always have a part in our life were we nearly died and in India it’s crossing the roads. If you are crossing a road in India there could be someone going as fast as a cool high school boy in a Lamborghini and in my mind, that is sooooo fast so I suggest you get ready for that if you are going to India.
  8. You have gone quite far into the blog now. It is not a very long blog who knows some guy from India might steal the name of this blog oh that reminds me. In India, they steal lots of famous brands names, so if you are going to have a packet of Eclairs be ready for it to be a rubbish brand that stole the name of a brand and then made some bad chocolate and I mean be ready.
  9. Cows, cows, cows. Do you like cows? Well in India you have to. The streets of India in cities are full of cows on the roads, and pigs also goats and my favourite cats and dogs, yes lots but more in places like Delhi, Pushkar and Jaipur so you better not be allergic to animals because there are plenty of them in India.
  10. In the south of India, their water is very precious so if you go there don’t have long showers, save some water for the community that you’re staying in, although its hard (well it is for me) just go with it.
  11. Do you remember on number what I said, well just remember it or go read it again!! Basically, you might come back with a bruised face from lots of cheek pitching, it’s not that painful but still for me it’s a little annoying.
  12. For me the best thing to probably do in in India is drink a banana lassie and its cheap and they are everywhere.
  13. I love India but as you have seen from my blog a lot of bad things happen to you so I suggest at the end of your trip fly to a nice place Mumbai and stay at the Taj Mahal palace but you need to save lots of money.
  14. India is so hot, BUT do take warm clothes with you because in some places like Delhi mum made a stupid decision to throw away all her warm clothes and then at night she got so cold, but that’s only in the north as in the south you will get so hot you will need short sleeve tee-shirts and shorts
  15. If Indians wobble there head like they are saying no, there saying yes, and sometimes if they say yes they don’t know what you mean but they just feel like saying it.
  16. Who likes spices in their curry? you may like that but in India DO NOT ask for that, no seriously don’t otherwise you will burn your head off. In some places, it’s not spicy but that is very unlikely, however if you have gone to India before and your fine with the spices like my mum (plus my dad), then you can but be aware.
  17. You have to like curries here because they even serve it for breakfast, it took me so long to scavenge for pancakes they even have rice cakes (there not real cakes they’re just a rectangle of rice) that you dip into the curries it’s so different.
  18. Do you like movies?  In India they have really cool theatres but there are some things you need to know about them; (1) there are so loud (2) there are lots of religious symbols (3) lots of dancing even more than the Sound Of Music (4)most of the time the green or blue screen is so bad, like we watched a movie in India were in part of a film a guy came from space to earth in a motorcycle covered in cold down the building and on the clouds, it was like some kids making a movie with the badest green or blue screen.
  19. When you have traffic in India it’s not just cars, it’s cows, goats, street kids, beggars, dogs and much more so if you are claustrophobic you’ll have a hard time in India.
  20. Finally, I suggest if you go to India you go to the south to Kerala. It has a lot of lush hills and rivers and there are lots of beaches and big waves for surfing, which I did a lot of.
So, we have come to the end of my epic journey now and I hope you have liked my blog. If you want to see any of my pics go on to my Instagram page called fredhugo777

My story:
I’m a ten-year-old boy on a trip around the world with many exciting experiences. I’ve been to places from laughter down to sadness. I’ve had points in this trip where I missed home, but I will never forget the friends I’ve made and the things I’ve done, and hope someday I will go back to traveling…
