Our taxi driver

Vijay is our taxi driver, aged 26. He has a calm quiet manner. He works from November to March taxiing visitors. Like all drivers he has a specific stand and his is outside a nearby hotel. He also rents out motorbikes and scooters for irs350 ie £3.50 He hires his car from a relation and hopes to own a family car in the future. A full day taxi ride costs  £20. 

He doesn't work much outside the holiday season but can be found helping out on a fishing boat or at the gym or in front of a mirror fixing his hair!

He is hoping to be married in the near future and it will be a love match. However his girlfriend in Christian and he is Hindu. He expects they will have a Hindu wedding.

Vijay is a birder and this adds another supplement to his income as there are lots of visitors who want to know the local bird hotspots.
