A truckload of colour

Earlier this summer I had the privilege of visiting India. A time well spent travelling around the south-west, mainly Kerala. Fantastic food, awesome scenery and adventure . Besides the food and culture, I think one of the greatest things in travelling is having to challenge and question yourself. India was no exception.

I have never been in India before, so everything was new to me. There was one thing in particular I could not stop admiring: the beautifully painted trucks of Kerala. I was so blown away that I didn't even remember to photograph them! So here I have to resort to others who have been smarter than me. Thanks!

As a comparison, take a look at the über-functional and well desinged Sisu-trucks. A great contrast to these flamboyantly, beautifully ornamented designs. Culture definitely shows through in styles.

Or what do you think?
