India and Nepal

In and around India

We have around 1 month and 3 weeks to travel through India and Nepal before flying to Bangkok.  Our initial, yet very tentative, plan is to travel overland through India via train and to take a bus from Darjiling to Kathmandu, Nepal by the 20th or so of February.
