Rural town in East godavari district, Andhra Pradesh. Part of Godavari Urban Development Authority (GUDA). Lived here for three years while i completed my graduation in Kakinada (District HQ, 15-20 Kms from Samalkot). the town has an ancient hindu temple of lord shiva, one among Pancharama Kshetras. Perfect rural town to explore Countryside of India (Godavari delta region ).

Actually, have a double-post; yesterday I had to go out and get some baked beans to go with my baked potato. I got a bit distracted and ended up going for a walk to this rather lovely spot on the way home. Although it doesn't look like it, that strip of water is actually the sea.

This is Olten in Switzerland. I had no plans of going here, but ended up here because I was trying to get from Freiburg (Germany) to Annecy (France) and I was determined to go through Switzerland to see the scenery, even though it meant that I had to get several trains that day. My eventual route was Freiburg - Basel - Olten - Geneva - Annecy. I delayed for several hours in Olten just to have a little poke around.

Like I have the money to go there.
I know it's a bit different because you have to come from another continent, but I did six weeks of travel through over a dozen cities for just under £2,000 total, including food and accommodation. It can most definitely be done with a bit of careful planning.

Jack, go to Luton in the UK it's a mind blowing experience.
I promise, Luton is still far nicer than Brussels. Although Luton is an absolute... experience as you say.
