It was two months ago that we were in a B&B in Chennai. When we came to the breakfast table there were already three women occupants. As we sat at the other end of the long table we overheard their conversation. Two of the women were French, who had come for a yoga retreat in Mysore and the other woman was Dutch, who was on a four-month biking tour of India.

My ears naturally perked up as she elaborated on her plans. She would start from the South and travel north up to Sikkim and then take the road to Ladakh
