Tread beyond Varkala's cliff beach to come across

Tread beyond Varkala's cliff beach to come across such pristine landscapes. There are many more beaches apart from the famous Varkala cliff beach towards the North.
This beach, shown in the picture, was located directly opposite Zostel Varkala. There were many more tiny but insanely beautiful and deserted beaches further North of this beach. While the cliff beach is a whole other beast in itself and has its own appeal, it's a popular beach thus it gets crowded.
If you want to walk around or bathe without the crowds, start exploring some of the other beaches in Varkala.

Waiting for Mowgli to come say hello in my jungle

Waiting for Mowgli to come say hello in my jungle paradise 🍃
In all honesty, Munroe island was the highlight of my Kerala trip. There's no place in Kerala that even came close to matching the beauty of these pristine islands.
Perhaps it was the lack of commercialisation, the friendly locals, lovely homestays with their South Indian food or maybe just the lack of crowds that got to me.
Munroe island has made its way to my special list of places where I'd like to live without anything to do with the outside world.

The Mattancherry-Jew Town area of Kochi is crawlin

The Mattancherry-Jew Town area of Kochi is crawling with the most amazing street art.
During your time in Kochi, spend a morning at the Mattancherry Dutch Palace museum, shop at Jew street and visit the Jewish synagogue.
While returning back to Fort Kochi, instead of taking a tuk-tuk, walk alongside the canal passing the spice market and the plethora of street art.
You'll even find plenty of cafés and upscale restaurants along the way. Knock yourself out!

In case you haven't already read my blog post on M

In case you haven't already read my blog post on Munroe island - Kerala yet, here's an incentive to go visit this island:
• It is just a 1.5 hour train ride away from Alleppey.
• The backwaters here are completely isolated compared to the crowded ones in Alleppey and Kumarakom.
• The island is non commercialized so you'll be staying with a nice local family, eating delicious local food, talking to the island dwellers and enjoying some quality peace time here.
• The island is surrounded by a lake and river, giving you plenty of breathtaking scenery to overpower your senses.

Need I list more reasons to visit Munroe island?

Tea as far as the eye can see 🍃🍃
Munnar is famous for it's many tea plantations.
If you drive around town, you'll notice that the tea plantations are surrounded by barbed wires since most of them are private properties.
So how can you photograph or walk around the plantations?
• Take a proper tour of a tea plantation plus factory such as the Kanan Devan factory.
• Drive around and find a plantation that's actually open to visitors or one where you can get permission from the owners to step inside.
• Stay at a hotel inside a tea plantation which will give you unrestricted access to photograph, walk around, or even dance around if that's your thing.

Cheers to art cafés all day everyday ☕☘️
Fort Kochi in Kerala is an area famous for 3 things:
• The MANY art cafés
• Chinese fishing nets
• Laid-back beautiful lanes
Having been under the Portuguese rule for 160 years, the lanes of this former fishing village almost transport you back to the yester years. I've been starting my days with leisurely breakfasts at some or the other nice café, taking long walks along bungalows laced with bougainvillea flowers and sitting at the coast, waiting for the sun to set.

Zen mornings at Munnar ✨ I love how @diggystattoos turned my boring hair interesting by finding the perfect hair colour for me.

This new unisex salon located jn Margao city, Goa is run by the kindest people who will find the right cut, colour or treatment for your hair. An added bonus is the tattoo studio upstairs where you can get a cool ink.

Munroe Island or Munrothuruthu in Kerala is a tiny

Munroe Island or Munrothuruthu in Kerala is a tiny little island surrounded by the Ashtamudi lake on two sides and the Kallada river on the other two sides.

The island was actually part of a land mass earlier which used to experience regular flooding. Thus the administration back then decided to dig a canal that would open up in the Ashtamudi lake - forming Munroe Island.
Today there is a bridge to reach the island via road, a railway station in the heart of the island as well as public ferry boats that can carry vehicles on board.

Spend 2 days on the island to soak in the laid-back vibes. Lots more info coming up in my blog post. 💚
