Delhi: Final Destination India

Three excellent months in India nicely rounded out this transformative year abroad.

I spent some days in Delhi with my travel compadres before we parted ways. I was headed home to the US, my brother Adam was off to Europe for a month before the holidays, and Nico went southbound to finish out the final months of his Indian visa before continuing his globetrotting.

I'm deeply thankful to have had this extraordinary opportunity, I feel incredible blessed to have met and shared time with so many exceptional people in some of the most superb corners of the globe.

Life will never be the same, but this is only the beginning!

These guards were obliging to help wish a friend back home happy birthday.   


There's never a dull moment on Indian streets.

Friendly Sikhs 

If you don't like crowds stay out of Indian cities.


 The cruel realities of poverty are inescapable. 

Imagine if this was your bed.
Be thankful.

Ambitious but positive.  

Delhi's new and rapidly expanding subway system. 

This guy found us selling super fresh nylon beards. 

I'm out!
