Eytan Uliel, a young Australian, details his backpacking adventures around India — the good, the bad, and the downright bizarre in his new non-fiction travel book “Head Waggling in Delhi: And Other Travel Tales from an Epic Journey around India” (published by Archway Publishing) filled with wry observation, affection and humor.
The book details the author and his partner’s sightseeing all over India over the course of four months on a budget of $12 a day with the intent of living, eating and traveling like locals. Along the way, he and Camilla sipped tea in Darjeeling, experienced a train ride from hell to Madras, got bit parts in a Bollywood film, ogled at the incomparable Taj Mahal, hung with hippies in Goa, and met a whole lifetimes’ worth of fascinating, entertaining, and memorable characters who all feature.
“First and foremost, I want readers to enjoy the stories — to laugh and smile and cringe, and at the end, really feel like they have almost been to India themselves,” Uliel says. “And through the stories, I want the reader to have some reflections and thoughts: on modernity, on global culture, on what it means to travel. And to see that despite all of our myriad differences, no matter in the world one may be, we are all ultimately far more similar than we are different.”
