Dah! Have I applied for a 6 months or 1 year visa? Definitely a 1 year, I paid for it! If I arrive in Delhi in September I have&#8230; 3 months? I&#8217;m not arrived in India and all my &#8220;plans&#8221; fall apart. The problem is that Indian visas start when they are issued.<\/p>\n<p>I called at the consulate of Toronto and asked why I got a 6 months visa when I paid for a 1 year one. It seems that it is much more difficult to get a 1 year, so I got a 6 month. Fred&#8230; do not ask any questions and take it as it is.<\/p>\n<p>So I need to bring back my plan number 2: arrive in Delhi and run at the nearest country to get another 6 month visa. Many possibilities exist: Arrive in Delhi, do the northern states of India for 3 months and go to Katmandu to get another visa. Or from Delhi to Calcutta to finish in the Bangladesh. Or run from Delhi to Colombo. There are so many possibilities&#8230; the problem is that this is not 100% sure that you get your new visa hahaha. Any ideas?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s what I like in traveling&#8230; you never know what will happen and where you will go. The only thing you can do is to go with the flow&#8230; the flow of events. When someone say to me: I&#8217;m planning a trip. I stare at him and start grinning.<\/p>\n<p>Technoratie:   [<a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/travel\" rel=\"tag\" target=\"_blank\">travel<\/a>] [<a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/India\" rel=\"tag\" target=\"_blank\">India<\/a>] [<a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/visa\" rel=\"tag\" target=\"_blank\">visa<\/a>] <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Expiry date: 17 November 2005.
