Rooms serviced by a 6-7 yr old boy!!

sweet children

As soon as we arrived in Hampi; unwilling to search for accommodation we stayed at the first place we came across. It was pretty cheap and in a very relaxing place but also pretty dirty.

We later understood why as we saw a young boy around 6 or 7 years old servicing the rooms. No wonder the sink was filthy, there was no way her could even reach it!

some of the many men desperate for our photo- we took one of them instead

Chris negotiating the 10 rupees payment for a photo

During the day we were hassled quite a lot for our photo to be taken by many Indians that Chris has now started charging 10 rupees per picture taken of us! Hilarious! Some Indians even put their hand in their pockets about to pay us before our conscience kicks in!
