About the book:
On Rishad Saam Mehta’s journeys — and as a travel writer and all-round
road-trip junkie, he’s been on many — there’s a particular thing he
noticed. There’s not a highway, road or dirt track in India where you
can’t find a cup of chai whenever you want it. And with those cuppas
come encounters and incidents that make travelling in India a
fascinating adventure. In this riveting book, which includes stories
of honey- and saffron-infused tea shared with a shepherd in Kashmir,
and a strong brew that revives the author after almost getting lynched
by an irate mob in Kerala, Rishad takes you across the length and
breadth of India, from Manali to Munnar, from the Rann of Kutch to
Khajuraho, with a wonderful combination of wit, sensitivity and
insight.
The Author:
Rishad Saam Mehta Rishad Saam Mehta graduated as an electronic
engineer from Bombay University and is a travel writer and
photographer. He lives in Mumbai and is especially fond of road trips,
