An Eastern Tailwind: Across India by Bike

by Jack Few

An Eastern Tailwind is a piece of creative travel writing by Jack Few, a young adventurer and explorer from England, UK. After peddling over 3,000 miles across India over a period of six months, he writes about his intricate relationship with India, the open road and the themes of adventure that slowly shape his life. Subjects such as curiosity, discovery, happiness, spirit, and purpose are expressed with a constant reflection on the ancient and beguiling country that is India. Through icy Himalayas and scorching deserts, he experienced the full range and beauty of life in India, on the open road, just him and his bike. He was touched by the warmth of the people he met, experienced the raw and often difficult life in ancient villages and explored his own physical and mental limits. Travelling alone, he camped under stars and next to rivers in his tent, watching the changing world unfold around him in a flurry of colour. This is a story told by a youthful, stubborn idealist, caught in full flower and noise travelling across India
