Dérive Ahmedabad 2012 - Work & travel

 After touring Ahmedabad as tourists, we wanted to experience the city on the flip side - selling products and services to the local people.
The rules for the derive were to go to places where we think we can earn money, not to stay in one place for more then an hour and not to stay where we do not earn money.
