Backpacker Haven

Pushkar is a small town that surrounds a lake in a large valley. It's very beautiful here and as a result it's a total backpacker haven. There are almost as many western faces as there are Indian and the narrow streets are jam packed with bizarres selling all the typical indo-

western 'hippie' type clothing.... and yes I even found myself buying a pair of (semi) hippie trousers (photos pending).

It's been refreshing not being stared at or hassled as much as in other parts of India but we move on through Jodhpur tomorrow, ending up in the desert oasis of Jaisalmer.
