Día 2: Sarnath y Varanasi (viaje al norte de la India)
Blog: Diario de a bordo - 19 April 2011
Varanasi, 10 de enero de 2011Me desperté sabiendo que ya había amanecido, pero sin ganas de salir de la cama. Tenía la nariz congelada, lo que indicaba que afuera seguía haciendo la misma temperatura glacial del día anterior. Tras armarme de valor, salí corriendo del saco de dormir y me vestí en un tiempo récord. Esa mañana la ducha quedaba descartada, porque no me apetecía pillar una pulmonía.

Blog: Girl, Unstoppable - 4 March 2011
Before I went to India, I knew that I could expect to see an intense religious devotion there; the kind of faith that leads people to make pilgrimages just to plunge themselves in waters that are considered to be sacred. I also knew that I could expect layers of filth. But I hadn’t expected that [...]

This scene is in Varanasi, but the traffic is like this in all the cities in India we have visited.
