39: Trucking through India - A Hitchhiking Adventure with Rajat Ubhaykar
10,000 kms and 100% unplanned. Rajat Ubhaykar has a travel book like no other. From Kanyakumari to Kashmir and all the way to Imphal, he has travelled everywhere by trucks. To be accurate, he has hitchhiked on trucks, relying on the kindness of strangers. In this episode, Sandip talks to him about his travels, what he learned about truckers in India, the insights his rides gave him about how corruption works and his new book, 'Truck de India!: A Hitchhiker's guide to Hindustan'.
