Corona Odyssee

The heart laughed, there was a lot of joy at the Indian friends and the wonderful adventures too, when out of nowhere everything changed. Within hours, India's Prime Minister Modi had factories, shops, hotels, and eateries shut down. Life in India was choked off. Tourists were treated like lepers. Hotels refused to take them in. Food became scarce. All flights to and from India were cancelled. What to do? In this diary of the Corona Odyssey, Sunhild Sauck gives an exciting and authentic account of how, despite all obstacles and difficulties, with the help of her Indian friends from Himachal Pradesh, she was able to get to the German Embassy in Delhi and thus to a rescue flight back to Germany.
