G'day and Namaste from India
 
Yes, the title rhymes...

My name is Owen, and my wife and I live in the foothills of the Himalayas in India. We arrive here from Melbourne, with me being an international kid who first grew up in Australia's most beautiful state, Tasmania.

We live in a town by the name of Mussoorie. If any of you have ridden from Delhi to Leh and tried to avoid Chandigarth, there is a good chance you drove passed us! We both teach and an international school by the name of Woodstock School, a ripper of a place to teach.

We've been working and adventuring in wild places for many years, although our bikes never had motors before coming here, last year. Now, I am the proud owner of a 2013 Enfield Bullet, 500cc EFI model. It gets us where we need to go and we're off on our first tour in June, taking a round about way to Leh with some trekking in the there somewhere.

Here's a shot of a group of us on a ride last weekend - my bike is the 'green' one. And yes, I'm the white guy...

If you're travelling through the Himalayas in the next 12 months, feel free to get in touch!

Cheers,
Owen

Hey Owen, a great introduction and a photo as well.
It would be great if all new comers could give details like you have.

Anyhow, you write ¨And yes, I'm the white guy...¨, noooo, I thought you being from Tasmania, you were the guy in the red top :rofl:

What sort of international school is it that you teach at, just a general education or something more specific?

I think many seeing you there beside your Enfield will be envious of you, good for you.

Well, I´ll go back and hide in my cave again now, welcome to the Hub and share some of your adventures with us when you can.
