Andy's Journeys to 78 countries & counting!
The next instalment! The continuing stoooory of a pig who’s gone to the dogs… 28th of March 2018 Developed a bit of a man flu. Actually it’s been pretty bad.

23rd March 2018 So, the long journey into Delhi from Jodphur arrived on time. Delhi, my arch nemesis, a place that had knocked me over more than once. And here I was again.

So, I need to start with a caveat – I’ve never really been stuck with a really bad border crossing. What would that be? Well, probably one where I didn’t even get across the border. People can
