This is our first time to India and our first month on a South India tour. We plan to be here for 3 months, perhaps longer. We wanted to share our first impressions during our travels and the places we’ve explored thus far.
First of all – We were always told that India is an attack of the senses and it definitely is. The sights, sounds and smells are heightened – probably more than everywhere else in the world.
We are traveling slowly, spending several days in each place – for part exploring, part working and part relaxing.
To the state of Kerala – on the southern coast until Mid November. We plan to stroll fishing villages, beaches, and boat down the infamous Backwaters.
Then we are working on an interesting opportunity, more on that later.
TIP: The way you can fight the weariness that India tends to bring on — Is travel slowly, if you can stay longer somewhere that you really like – stay longer. That is the benefit of independent travel.
Looking for more from us on our South India tour? Stay tuned, so much more to come. Have you considered traveling longer term for a few months or more? Here is our detailed check list on how to prepare for it.
