Gisella and Joris in India - Part 2 (with photos)


Today we are in Varkala Beach, just above Trivnadrum. We arrived two day ago from Thekkady, after a 8 hour bus journey. It is a very chilled beach resort sitting on a cliff above the Arabian Sea.



It's a balmy 36 degress here with a lovely sea breeze. Yesterday I went to a 2 hour yoga class in the early morning- very zen!!

There is so much fresh fish- each night the fish is displayed in front of all the restaurants- swordfish, tuna, butter fish, grouper and 3 to 4 types of huge prawns. You choose your fish and they grill it or tandoor cook it. Really great!!


This afternoon, the five of us that have stayed here after the tour finished, are doing a cooking class in keralan cuisine to make fish curry, rotis and some other dishes...



Tommorrow we head inland to the temple town of Madurai where we will stay for three nights.
