I was supposed to start my work at India on 1st of Oct, unfortunately, it was a very big holiday which is birthday of gandi and ramadan ( raya lar people)so I have more than a week to stay in Chennai। So what else can I do instead of have my joyful sight seeing and vacation in god's own country-Kerala? Several excuses for me to attempted on my pre-travel plan on head before I came, Kerala was just a lil' early than I was expect. Why not right? So I made myself a move.
Kerala -the "50 places of a lifetime" & "10 paradises of the world" was tempting enough for me to take a risk to die for it. I met my new friend Giovana, a lovely mamasita (hot chick in spanish) from Columbia and we were discussing about the long holiday thingy, after few interesting conversation, I decided to go with her and her friends.
here u go, the team and I(is like the united color of benetton hehe )
we took more than 12 hours to kerala by train.No worries, it ain't horrible as the email you've seen. Ya, people hanging outside the train does happens, but only in the daily metro of Mumbai. Somehow we had a sleeper class which you can actually lay down during your long way journey( as you know, india is pretty huge). I met some helpful indian guy during my roadtrip and I did brought troubles to them too,and surpricingly they make no complain. It was good for my very 1st impression of India. Thou, stories never go thee way at the end....sigh.
So well, we reached our first station Allepey the next morning. Even though this country side was amazingly pretty, but we're exhausted and obscure on the travel plan( we actually have no one).We figure out the book under the hot sun, to see how's this guides will show us to, some mates are speaking in french some are spanish, me obviously know neither of that , so I just shut up and wait for the people who are going to lead the people, of course I'd say that I'm too lethargic to give any helpful suggestion instead of blame my self being lazy. After few argument ( I assume they are, from the faces expression), we decided to ask the local( yeah, wasted about half an hour) and finally we settle down in a lovely home stay, which is friendly and most importantly- CHEAP! ( RM 30 per night)

Allepey is a lovely little village that you can see coconut trees around,cows goats and their popo , fresh air and totally away from the polluted stressful city , what you need to do is, to take a deep breath and feel your self healthy.
After my spf 50+ sunblock applied, we went to the private pool for our longing swimming session. ( all right, things to remember in India- women are not allow to swim at the public place, quite conservative ya, but do give respect yourself a shit)
Anyway, the private pool was awesome and quiet, we swim like nobody's care and enjoy our beer at the same time. I was really impressive by the Indian beer because I'm quite tipsy after few cup of it.
my best friend giovana during her happy 'naked' moment in pool(in india's way)
Tipsy little silly swim with her unders because she forgot to bring her bikini along with her, so I was a bit shy to take picture and of course very shy to swim in front of the guys that I've just met few hours ago. But alcohol help me to let go everything and enjoy my afternoon with my new friends. Until starving knock my tummy, we have to go for food hunting!
We went to some looking good restaurant for our kerala's seafood dinner at the beach, we manage to enjoy the sunset with our coffee, we left everything in the cafe and walk out without paying the bill as well as took the cup with us. The careless tourists totally freak out the waiter. Pity him have to stay and take care of our properties and make sure we are coming back for the bill. =P anyway it was a good meal good chat and good scenery that I definitely want to do it again in my life time.

So this is another guy who came over and showing off his talent while we waiting for the sunset , it was pretty entertained and he danced like the bollywood pops up 'kelefe', pro one! "Clap, clap " he said, and we place a smile on face. Thank you for your wonderful performance. :-) ( to be continue)
