Jayna Rust on a camel safari in Bikaner, Rajasthan, India

Hopping onto a camel and spending a night sleeping in the desert wasn’t one of my plans when I started this trip. If you knew me then, you’d know I actually had very little planned other than, you know, hopping on a plane to China and figuring I’d see the Great Wall there and then try to keep up with my other pre-purchased flights.

In my last week in China, though, I came across the first American on the trip. We hung out at Jiuzhaigou together that day and swapped a few travel stories. When she heard I was traveling to India at some point, she said I should go on a camel safari in Rajasthan.

I took note in the handy-dandy moleskin notebook I’ve been carrying around with me and almost nine months later I did just that. And LOVED it.

Holy cow…has it already been nine months? Yikes.

    I went on a camel trip in Morocco few years ago. After a short while, it was so painful that I had to jump off the camel and walk myself to the camp.
    That’s how I figure why the nomad guys are always seen walking beside, using their camel only to carry their load !!!
    That was a good experience, though !

    Yeah…I have to admit…I rode on the camel cart quite a bit of the time…
