Anjuna to Laxmeshwar.
Days 61, 62, 63, 64 & 65. Day 61. Early start today. Didn’t bother with breakfast at the hotel as I didn’t think it would be worth the wait. Navigated easily through Calangute which is bigger and busier than Anjuna, where I visited an ATM again just to make sure I’ve got enough cash for…

Malvan to Anjuna.
Days 58, 59 & 60. Day 58. I didn’t bother with breakfast at the hotel. I didn’t fancy fried eggs again. Once I’d paid my bill and trundled off down the road, I found some great street food almost immediately. A couple of vada pav with some chai, and a couple of samosas squirrelled away…

My Kit List
Another geeky post for the travel nerds amongst us. Despite one piece of feedback telling me that there was too much detail and information about my bike in the post titled, erm, “The Bike” 🙄, I have forged on with a post about the kit I am taking with me. I have no doubt that…

Riding Home 2022
It has been the plan for a long time. Almost as long as the plan to sell up in the UK and move to France in our retirement. In 2018, the first part came to fruition and we sold up our family home in the UK and bought our beautiful old house at La Roque.…
