I made it! It was a long way here but planes, trains and then getting very lost in a taxi, I was finally delivered me to the door of my hostel. I had forgotten the address system over here that makes finding your way around a bit tricky, there are no street names just a series of numbers and if you are unfamiliar with how things work you can get a bit confused, just ask my taxi driver, and he was a local! Anyway I have since made several trips back to the train station, all taking a different route and think I may have finally nailed the way out of this rabbit warren, at least I have knocked a good 10 minutes off the walking time! The main streets are just like at home but once you get into the residential area they are very narrow and one way, as a driver you spend a lot of time backing up roads or tooting to make sure you don't meet anyone on a hairpin bend.
