Thi Baï au pays des indiens: août 2010

http://thibaiaupaysdesindiens.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html

Thi Baï au pays des indiens. L'Inde au quotidien c'est une expèrience nouvelle pour moi (Oh la je vous entends criez "ca va tu as été moult fois en Inde, c'est une affaire qui roule maintenant! Oui mais pas si automatiquement que ça. Voyager en Inde c'est une chose, y "vivre" s'en est une autre. Le temps me manque pour profiter pleinement de l'Inde c'est sur. Mais je pensais que la fatigue l'emporterait plus que ça sur mes activités extrastage. Inscription à : Articles (Atom). Pour y voir plus clair.

Thi Baï au pays des indiens: Diwali et autres festivités

http://thibaiaupaysdesindiens.blogspot.com/2011/10/diwali-et-autre-festivites.html

Thi Baï au pays des indiens. Diwali et autres festivités. Et puis voila qu'arrive Diwali (26.10); la fête des lumières (clin d'oeil aux lyonnais). Avec Holi (fête qui célébre le printemps) ce sont les deux fêtes les plus populaires en Inde. Diwali bien que Hindoue à la base (célébre différentes divinités.) semble être fêtée par toute la population. Toute l'Inde est fériée et en ce 26 octobre vit au rythme des lumières. En attendant voici notre balcony hier soir. Pour y voir plus clair. Rémy dans les airs.

Thi Baï au pays des indiens: Wecome in Jawaharlal Nehru University

http://thibaiaupaysdesindiens.blogspot.com/2011/09/wecome-in-jawaharlal-nehru-university.html

Thi Baï au pays des indiens. Wecome in Jawaharlal Nehru University. Après un mois et demi d'expérimentation de l'Université, je crois qu'il est temps de vous faire part de mon quotidien. Pour ce faire, et pour que ça soit pas trop barbant, on va résumer ça sous forme de grand points. Une grande aventure ça aussi, qui m'aura pris. une semaine! Le statut d'étudiant étranger :. Je peux donc maintenant affirmer très officiellement que nous petits étudiants étrangers, n'avons pas de statuts réels et l'année s...

The Himalayas Pt II | Occidental Passage

https://occidentalpassage.wordpress.com/2010/07/18/the-himalayas-pt-ii

The Himalayas Pt I. Silk Road in China →. The Himalayas Pt II. 18 July, 2010. Tenzing Norbu and I got stuck in a landslide on our way to Sikkim. We took full advantage of the delay, going for a refreshing swim in the mighty Teesta just below the fallen rocks. After the disappointment of having to abandon my post-India plan for travel north on the Karakouram Hwy. Through Pakistan because of bureaucratic bullshit from the embassies, I decided to take a train East, to the tiny Buddhist kingdom of Sikkim.

Family Matters | Occidental Passage

https://occidentalpassage.wordpress.com/2010/05/20/family-matters

The Himalayas Pt I →. 20 May, 2010. Jama Masjid, India's largest mosque, located in Old Delhi. The following images are from my older sister’s brief sojourn in India. Emily, Ethan and I spent two weeks between Delhi, Amritsar, Rishikesh, Haridwar and Agra. Ania, a mutual friend of ours, joined from London for ten of those days. The India-Pakistan border outside Amritsar - Waga Border. The Golden Temple, Sikhism's most holy shrine, located in Amritsar. To see just how over the top the two sides can get.

Dead West through Central Asia | Occidental Passage

https://occidentalpassage.wordpress.com/2010/10/24/dead-west-through-central-asia

Dead West through Central Asia. 24 October, 2010. One of three medrassahs (Muslim university) at The Registan in Samarkand. Mussulman's father during a chay break in a small village near Langar. I asked for a family portrait, and this is what I got.the wife/mother looking on from behind. The name Samarkand has, since childhood, stirred up memories of the stories from 1001 Arabian Nights. Mussulman's wife was a little bit shy, but let me take a photo nonetheless. Bukhara was once the capital of Islamic le...

The Himalayas Pt I | Occidental Passage

https://occidentalpassage.wordpress.com/2010/06/06/the-himalayas-pt-i

The Himalayas Pt II →. The Himalayas Pt I. 6 June, 2010. Between my 6-day trek with Ethan in the Kullu Valley. My 28-day mountaineering course with the Nehru Institute of Mountaineering ( NIM. In the area around Uttarkashi, and my 5-day pilgrimage to Gomukh. A Hindu temple just after starting the trek to Hampta Pass. We got our blessing from the mountain gods and continued the climb up. Himalayan camping - we found a shepherd's paddock to crash by after an arduous climb to the top on our first day. For t...

Towards the beach | Occidental Passage

https://occidentalpassage.wordpress.com/2009/12/21/towards-the-beach

Beach bumming →. 21 December, 2009. It took roughly two weeks to get from NW Vietnam to the beaches of southern Thailand, a journey that took me back to Hanoi, into the (amazingly) even more frenetic metropolis of Saigon, and finally through several places in Cambodia. I’ll be hanging out in Thailand with the family for the next ten days or so, taking a break from serious travel to recharge my batteries seven months into my trip. The road from Muong Lay to Sapa. Sure enough, Kate was still around, and ev...

Persia | Occidental Passage

https://occidentalpassage.wordpress.com/2010/11/28/persia

Dead West through Central Asia. This is the End →. 28 November, 2010. One of several entrances to the Imam Reza Shrine in Mashahd, the most important Shi'ah Muslim pilgrimage site in Iran. Imam Reza, the Eighth Imam, is buried in a mausoleum within the complex. Kang, a stepped village outside of Mashhad. The roof of each home is the terrace of the one above it. Climbing up the steps in Kang. School girls in Kang. We hitched a ride to the trail-head in a rickety old truck. With Mahdi on the summit. That&#...
