Flight to Leh

I booked a flight to Leh in the very north of India. Leh was the capital of the Himalayan kingdom of Ladakh, now the Leh District in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The city is is at an altitude of 3,500 meters. When I arrive, I need one or two days of acclimatization. There should be a festival when I am there.

I made my booking through travelocity.co.in and will fly with Air Deccan. It was very cheap! I paid only CHF80 for one way! Usually, the flight comes with a price tag of about CHF250 with a low cost carrier - even with Air Deccan. Well, we will see what I get... ;)

Namaste!

I'm in the process of planing my next trip. It will bring me to India and Nepal.
Many people I have told me from their impressive time they had while traveling through these two countries. Well, now it's up to me to experience the same.

Expect more later.
