The hell that is Delhi.

What can we say about Delhi? Well to be honest it was pretty shit (excuse the French).

We made the decision to leave Agra early to return to Delhi, this may be one of our biggest mistakes ever, but mistake or not this is what we learnt.

We won't bore you all with detail so here it is in bullet points:

- Never and we mean ever, travel on sleeper class on the train.
- Don't trust any transport driver as they will only rip you off or take you where they want to go.
- When complaining about a bad hotel, threaten them with bad reviews and you get what you want.
- Being a white women, makes you the lowest of the low.
- Being this and not travelling with man is even worse!
- You may get hit with a water bombs for being a tourist - scarier than it sounds.
- Delhi is a very scary place.

I know these are very generalised, but this is what we experienced.

All we can say is the south is completely different, a peace of heaven after hell.
