Day 1

Coimbatore to kochi

I took bus from Coimbatore to Kochi in afternoon 3 pm . Totally unaware of the native language of Coimbatore, I had my lunch after 15 mins of struggle with restaurant owner. He was not understanding what i was asking to eat . I asked him Thali but he brought banana leaf and dosa. I ate it and started searching for my bus because everyone speaks only tamil language i was just wondering will i be able to find bus.

I searched that bus stop it showed near by but i was going round and round of the same hotel. Then i tried to ask the same restaurant guy for the address he told bus will come beside his restaurant in some wierd gesture that i managed to understand.

Bus came near about 3 pm it was comfortable journey as it was semi sleeper and Ac @ ₹500 from gandhipuram to kochi fort.

What a stay it was I am staying in zostel and got dorm room. Last night it was fun with all the travellers staying at zostel.
There were many bloggers, vlogger and leisure travelers with whome i shared my experience and meal.

ohh for meal everything thing is available here from zomato to swiggy to every food chain that is available in all major cities. So no worries for food you will satisfy your taste buds.

In morning i walked towards fort kochi and hired a bike from royal brothers my all time favourite dio.
Dio was my first bike in pune gifted from Mother.

Now took bike started wandering around fort Kochi, I saw a ferry used to move people and bikes ,cars to move from island to city. People in kochi are so helpful and yes they know English and Hindi.
I had my brunch in kochi @venkys as i said you can find anything in kerala.
Wandering around city and kochi I met many locals where i got immense help and knowledge about kerala and to plan my next day.

Day 3

Today I was heading towards Alleppey beach and was going to stay in boat house backwater of Kerala.
I was extremely excited about this stay but first I had to go to Alleppey.
I was staying in fort kochi and Alleppey was 100km away from my place.
So I extended my bike return date to one more day and today after breakfast I drove toward my next destination.

Alleppey beach is so quite during march because of summer i think crowd was less but fortunately foreigners were thier. So I made attempt to sit with them and talk few thinks about me and to know about them. Water is clean, beaches are clean unlike Mumbai .

Some shack provide lunch and cold drinks here. You can get nice & comfortable chair to relax on beach for this you can choose Alleppey over  W beach goa.

I spend a day over here chilling with these people and food & drinks remembering all old day's. Sea water or any waterfront scenes are soothing for me.

I had to check-in so left early from Alleppey towards back water house . I must tell you when i came here i was just stunned by the view of this place. It was beyond my imagination and wonderful that for a moment i thought i will never go from here.
I kept my laggage in room and went to see around this place and what i witnessed was god's own country and rose in LOVE of nature.
