'People told me I'd lost my mind.'
Sometimes, it’s just as much about the journey as it is the destination ‘You’ve lost your mind,’ said people at my Ayurvedic retreat in Kerala when I told them I was travelling solo by train for so long. ‘Why come all this way to relax and then ruin it all by taking the cheapest ticket on the slowest train? It’s only two hours to fly – and it’s hardly any more money.’ Yes, my internal flight from Mumbai to Kerala a week earlier cost about £40.
You’ll never go hungry Sangeena helped me hop off the train at stations to buy meals on platforms. Few food sellers spoke any English, but my new friend helped me understand and find the correct money in the few minutes before we had to leap back on the train.
