Places I've been to...
As a 100% European, of course,
I've :
-- been to Brussels, and enjoyed small streets resembling the celebrated "rue du Labrador" ;
-- made some acquisitions in the Marolles area's flee market (but my wallet resisted all attempts)...
-- visited the Chateau de Chenonceau, plus the very well structured annex to the Castle (nearby the estate's kennel), which shelters pretty good stagings of Tintin's most famous episodes...
-- passed through Geneva's airport (arrival side, and departure side !) but didn't get much outside of the city...
-- climbed the Eiffel Tower (and, of course, couln't help thinking : "that pendulum tells me He must be in a very high place..." !)
I wandered...
-- in Ostende
-- along the black coasts of Scotland, the white cliffs of Dover, and the (so melancholic) countryside of Kent county, much alike the landscapes of Surrey...
-- in Saint-Nazaire, and La Rochelle...

Then, in a bold move :
-- roamed (while I was "on the road"...) through Bombay, Dehli and New-Dehli, around the Pyramids (near Cairo), and into the small villages of Congo.
That's all I can remember, related to our young quiffed reporter...

Gaipajama does not exist in India. I would consider it to be a replacement of some place in Maharasthra.

In French it's called Rawajpoutalah, but I don't think that exist either.
