In India we do not drive on the left of the road, we drive on what is left of the road…

…… Princley, the organizer, said in his welcome speech the first day, and that is exactly how it is! The driving is completely crazy, a little scary but also absolutely amazing and exciting. But to survive you need to honk as much as you can and to find all the shortcuts between cows, mopeds, buses and cars.

The margins are small but in a strange way traffic flows forward and it happens surprisingly few accidents. It is important to stay cool and not panic when both lanes suddenly are occupied by two buses, side by side, both of them coming towards you, leaving no room to pass by them. The crazy thing is that you get used to the chaos so quickly and after a while you stop reacting to cars driving on the wrong side of the road, cows standing in the middle of it or a vegetable vendor who takes up half the road with his hand-drawn wooden cart.
