Lady Rickshaw driver


Lady Rickshaw driver, originally uploaded by jrambow.

Excitingly, my rickshaw driver in Trichy was a woman, more commonly known as a "lady" in India.

After taking countless rickshaws in a fair number of cities, this was a first, so I had to get a picture. She was nice, smiling a whole lot more than any other rickshaw driver I've had. (She was still tough on bargaining, though.)

She didn't wear a sari or a salwar kameez, she just wore the standard simple brown rickshaw-driver shirt and some light-blue pants that she rolled up.
