Children cheering and waiving as we pass by in a makeshift through Geejgerh Village, Rajathstan State, India

Geejgerh Village is located near Sikandra in Rajathstan State, India. Although not a common tourist destination it receives about two makeshift loads of Overseas Adventure Travel clients each and every day. So, it surprised me that the village children were so eager to greet us despite the hundreds they've already seen before us! Nevertheless, children are always a delight so we returned the waives and cheering when not taking photographs or videos. Oh, the "makeshift" (which I feature in other YouTube videos and photos) is pretty much what the name implies - a vehicle put together from other bits and pieces of machinery, equipment, and vehicles so as to save money (including on licensing and taxes). In the Hindi language a "makeshift" is called a "Jugaad" which is slang for "quick-fix." The makeshift is a bit noisy but always a lot of fun to ride!
