| Location | Udaipur, Rajasthan, India |
| Introduction | I come from Galway, Ireland originally. I moved over to England in 2001 and am now based in Kent. While travelling through India in 2003 fell in love with Udaipur, Rajasthan. I've had the good luck of staying at the ranch of my good friend Dinesh Jain ( http://krishnaranch.com/ ) where Chandra is living now, taking tourists out on rides. This October I will be riding from Udaipur to Pushkar in time for the Mela. I hope to raise funds for the Tree of Life for Animals on this ride, while educating farmers in animal care in the places that I pass through. I am funding myself and so no donations made through my websites will go to me. |
