By train from Gotegaon to Bhopal

Friday 2 October 2026

After another relaxed day, at around 17:55 it was time to leave Gotegaon by train for Bhopal. Once again there was a cow lying on the platform, happily chilling with us. These animals are so used to cars, scooters and trains, they couldn't care less.

The rest of the train journey was fine and took about five hours. Unfortunately Yasha kept getting sicker, so for her the trip was a lot less comfortable. Luckily, once we arrived we quickly found a taxi, and the hotel was close by. Not the best or freshest hotel we've ever experienced, but we were so tired that we didn't care for the moment. We'll complain at the front desk tomorrow.

Oh well, in a few weeks we'll be sleeping in ashrams and villages. Just consider this training.
