29. + 30. November 2025     In Nagaland, poof—just like that, at least 90% of the population has converted to Christianity, and they are eagerly engaged in missionary work. In Arunachal Pradesh, things are a bit different. In 1971, there were not even 4,000 people who identified as Christian. By 2011, it was already … Continue reading Arunachal Pradesh: Ziro -> Daporijo -> Aalo – the horror was in the middle → Read more

28. + 29. November 2025     The first impression of Arunachal Pradesh: more hilly, greener, less traffic, pretty. There was also a nice viewpoint:     We didn’t drive all that far, and then we were already in Ziro, with only a road repair stopping us along the way.       Ziro is … Continue reading Arunachal Pradesh: Ziro Valley – less people, less houses, less photos → Read more

7. Dezember 2025     The previous blog isn’t finished yet, but since I’m still on the road and already heading toward new and different experiences, here is already a preview of the next plan. Maybe this blog will end up being a bit shorter – but we’ll see.   Tomorrow I’ll get on a … Continue reading Kerala/Ladakh – Before the trip → Read more

27. + 28. November 2025     For Arunachal Pradesh you also need a PAP permit. This has been the case for many, many years – and it’s actually much easier than the new Nagaland PAP. The agency normally fills out the applications on its own, and voilà, the permits arrive. This year, however, something … Continue reading Assam: Majuli -> Kimin – a new PAP-Thriller → Read more

25. + 26. November 2025     But before we crossed over to Majuli, we saw something truly special: an old-timer museum! It may sound boring to non-vehicle enthusiasts, but the owner was so passionate and enthusiastic that it was an absolute delight — and definitely worth recommending. He pours all his money and time … Continue reading Assam: Majuli – The Place of Return → Read more

24. November 2025     The day before, my Diamir travel group had arrived — and we quickly grabbed some breakfast by the roadside. There are eight people who wanted to explore Northeast India more closely and get to know the people. But first, we started with the animals. I’m not a fan of safaris. … Continue reading Assam: Kaziranga – “You are old, but funny” → Read more

 20. – 22. November 2025     I had booked a bus from Jorhat to Guwahati, together with a hotel staff member, because I can’t really manage that so easily, especially the payment part. It was a bit complicated, and he needed my WhatsApp contact and my Indian phone number. And then I received the … Continue reading Assam: Jorhat -> Guwahati – The Humans to the Yoni, the Animals to the Slaughterbank → Read more

17. – 19. November 2025     I took an e-rickshaw to the mask-making monastery, Samaguri Satra. In principle, these e-rickshaws would be ideal for getting around on Majuli: they trundle quietly and slowly through the peaceful landscape. But they have one drawback: you really feel the bumpy road! You bounce around on your seat … Continue reading Assam: Majuli -> Jorhat – In Search of a Hairdresser I found the Indian Michael Jackson from Assam → Read more

16. November 2025     A bicycle tour was planned for today. That seemed like a good idea to cover some distance while still traveling at a leisurely pace. And to make it easier to find the way, have contact with people, and learn even more, I also booked a guide and a lunch with … Continue reading Assam: Majuli – 3 cycling bachelors meet the romantic love → Read more

15. November 2025     So I moved into a simple bamboo hut, really just like in my backpacking days — also financially. But it was clean and pleasant. The best thing, though, was actually the owner, who was always bustling around, talking to the guests, laughing, spreading good vibes and information. You could tell … Continue reading Assam: Majuli – Peace and Well-Being for All → Read more
