  • Seven days, three rivers, one kayaker: Nouria Newman kayaks solo in India!
    Nouria Newman combines a surprising adeptness at playing on white waters with an endless thirst for discovering new horizons.
    Nouria decided to head North in India to achieve her goal of kayaking. She had already heard of Zanskar and the lower part of the Indus, both of which are world famous.
    She started in Zanskar, headed to Indus and transitioned through beautiful places of India while trying to survive very dangerous situations, both in rivers and on land.

    Narly situation! She hooked herself onto her boat, pulled her sprayskirt and submerged. How did she unhook herself? Lucky to be alive, lucky you weren't still attached onto your boat, lucky the rapid ended soon after, lucky you still had al your gear and your paddle came even towards you. A lot of luck!
    I got the feeling that, before she ended up in this situation, she felt a bit invincible. After, reality hit hard and gave back the feeling of being humble. Good lesson, stay humble, thats the right attitude to be on a river like this.
    Glad you survived! I wouldn't dare.
