a long travel from kumily to kottaya to appley to kollam and now at beachy varkala

wow what a long and wonderfull 2 days of non stop travelling. saw lots of things while on the move and i must say im luving it.
the difficult connections and the missed trians and buses really makes travelling a challenge in india. but still with lots of helpful people around , im never alone.
Did the famous backwaters of kerala (ferry from kottayam to appley) and i must say it was really an experience. the backwaters as they call it were magnificient and personal too. you can see the backwaters and the people going about their lives and it all feels like a venice in a wild setting. it was without a proper use of the word "incredible". saw those backwater boats or rice barges and i must say its incredible.
went off to appley and went over to the train station only to find out that the next train is going towards varkala at 12:30am. so went back to the bus stop and took another bus towards kollam as i knew that was the nearest town with good links with the south states.
went over to kollam and apparently the people advised that i do not go at this hour as it is unsafe and with the help of one of my new indian friend he brought me to this tourist house in kollam to stay for the night.
woke up bright and early for the day and off i went to varkala for a great day out. took the ordinary bus and this really friendly conductor instucted me how to get to the varkala beach but this ordinary bus was the most bumpy and also the most high tide bus i ever rode. was screeming for a toilet the whole journey lol.
reached there and went into this local indian eatery to use the toilet and decided to try their local indian flair and i was astonised. the food was really good. although abit rustic but the food was one of those better parathas and chais that i have tried. costed me only 32 rupee which is like 1dollars sing. that was the most hearty and best breakfast local indian meal i had. ( although there were the continentals and the thalis and such). went off a happy man.
took an autorickshaw towards the varkala beach as the town and beaches were away from each other and checked into my hotel.
although the journey as long and tiring , it was also the reason why i loved travelling as when you are on the move , you get to see and feel things which you do not feel when you are stationary.

love travelling ! =)

oh did i tell you that i am in this very rusty internet cafe perched perculiously on the edge of the cliff buff on varkala beach. its really radically cool !
