Incredible. Value of the money… What can you get for 56 EUR?

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

Landed in Vienna on Sunday morning. Went to BILLA buying some milk, bread and butter. Not much, but was wondering paying 16 EUR. Then going by taxi from the airport at home and paying the normal fee of around 40 EUR.

So, all in one 56 EUR! I have not spent the last week so much on accomodation, food and drinks…

Incredible…

12.5./13.5.: Nighttrain Delhi - Varanasi

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

After visiting Delhi (New and Old) I took the nighttrain to Varanasi (6.15 PM to 7.45 AM). This time I took 3AC, this means three beds in a row and aircondition. Delhi - Varanasi is about 771 km and this class was up to 1.200 Rs (app. 20 Eur). Tomorrow night I am going to take the normal sleeper class to Calcutta for 400 Rs (app. 7 Eur) for again 770 km. I took some Dal and rice for eating it in the train, as I was not sure, if everything is going smooth on the train-station. Many people… Many….

The train itself was quite comfortable and I felt asleep suddenly as I was very tired… and woke up at 7.30 AM. Before this I had a short talk with an Indian Doctor, who was in the bed under me. I asked him some indian related things… About Calcuta, Politics, Varanasi, Cricket, Internet, Food and the future of India… Very interesting…

So I am going to have a walk through the Gates in Varanasi. It is very hot here… people say up to 44 degrees.
