Travel By Rickshaw, Anyone?

All set for a rickshaw ride.. giddiup!

One of the more exciting ways to travel in India is by auto rickshaw. These little buggies are really no more than a modified scooter with a cab plopped over top. These green and yellow or brown pods are seen everywhere, darting in and out of the absolute madness that is Indian traffic. Without any doors, this method of transportation is cheap and unsafe as all hell - making it the ONLY way to travel for me!

About me

  • I'm johnny 5
  • From Honolulu, Hawaii
  • My Grandfather led an extraordinary life.. as a teenager he worked in a steel mill, fought the Nazis at age 20, lived in Paris, traveled the world, became a pilot, married an amazing woman and raised a fantastic family. He taught me that life is full of incredible experiences which later become great stories and treasured memories. I've found that sometimes in life you just have to push everything aside and seek out those "once in a lifetime" experiences.
