An Ordinary Traveller

There are impossible tales told by intrepid travellers; then there are ordinary travellers who find themselves in extraordinary places, meet people who make their journeys remarkable, and encourage others to embark on such possible journeys. From an impromptu late evening party at 10000 feet in Nepal, to dining with prostitutes in a Rangoon restaurant; from a star-studded night on a beach in the Andaman Islands to an avalanche strewn path in North Sikkim, author Kunal Sinha finds himself in locales and situations that are simply out of the ordinary. Traipsing the length and breadth of South Asia, surviving by a judicious mix of planning and anticipation, his tales are writ with wry humour, and a keen eye for detail that would be missed out in picture postcards.
