1/ Wow, 30.000 camels, a monkey temple, cows with 5 legs. India is truly amazing. And I even learned some Bollywood dancing. Here my travel piece from India.

2/ Our drone footage from 2018 #Pushkar camel fair in #India.
Similar to Lion King trailer except our budget wasn't 250 million USD but an 800$ drone & 5 pakoras.
Enjoy the Camel King trailer.

3/ Not to scare the camels, we flew as high as we can with our drone.
The camels never heard or felt anything. Also in total we used the drone in one week only for about 20 min.
Drones provide great footage but of course if everyone starts using them its a nightmare.

4/ Before I tell u about india, I want to say sth.
Some ask: U normally report on war, ISIS, terrorism so why now on camel fair?
I sometimes need change from hate, death, fear of my beat. I need positive stories. Colorful, cultures mixing &no fear.
Call it therapy reporting.

5/ I first arrived in #Delhi. First day was bit foggy/smoggy but next days beautiful, sunny. Some parts of Delhi very green.
I took metro or rikshaw to see Moghul tumbs. Very stunning, especially Humayun's tomb and Isa Khan's garden tomb &mosque.

6/ I really liked #Delhi. The city has a lot of character.
Old Delhi insanely crowded. It was shortly before diwali so everywhere people selling flowers. So colourful.
And the barber shop is right on the pavement!

7/ After Delhi, I moved to Neemrana, just across the state border into #Rajasthan. Amazing hotel there. Look at this photo.
Old fortress. Really nice and magical. I was staying in a room that was built in the 15th century!

8/ Hotel in Neemrana, #Rajasthan was wonderful. During early morning, monkeys roaming around in the garden near to my room.
And they were shooting a Bollywood music clip on the terrace of the hotel. So obviously I had to try &learn some dance steps!

9/ And to be honest, I am a bit scared of monkeys.
It's the first time in my life that I see monkeys. But that's also the beauty of travelling and experiencing new things for the first time.

10/ After Neemrana, I went to #Jaipur. And what a city that is!
It is famous for Hawa Mahal (The Wind Palace).
Look at this stunning place.
Has around 900 windows. Women of the Maharaja, not to be seen by the public, used to watch through them daily life outside.

11/ Jaipur is known as the pink city. So much to see there. Didn't know where to start.
Many buildings pink here. The splendor of the Moon palace, the stunning reading room in Samode haveli and the city palace with its beautiful gates.

14/ I saw these dogs laying on a road in Pushkar, India.
Me: Who is the guilty one?
Dogs: "It wasn't us!"
🤔
