Whenever people ask my suggestion on which place to visit, then I always suggest Kerala to their bucket list. Experiencing Kerala is not only visiting a place to see natural beauties but it teaches us a way of living through their simple ways of living, simple rituals, innocent people, and exotic culture.

One of the most beautiful and heart touching incidents from Kerala, I would love to share with you is – 

In one of my visits, when I was trying to catch a local bus in Thrissur, I was confused about which bus, direction, and what I have to tell to the driver, as I was unknown to the local language. So, I thought of asking fellow people standing at the bus station, and suddenly I found that one man left his bus which he was about to board and came with me to my bus point. He very politely explained to me which one to take and then took me to that bus, and also explained to the driver in his local language about my destination point. I was wondering a person who has to reach his workplace on time, left his bus for me and accompanied me to drop me into the correct bus.  I felt so safe after this incident. And also on the local bus, all became very friendly as they all came to knew that I am new in Kerala. They tried to explain with me in their local language about Kerala, many local beliefs, stories, etc. And all those talks were so enlightening for me to experience Kerala. Those stories by local people are still fresh in my mind and they were more knowledgeable than any book or scriptures as they were truly felt by humans and told to humans. This kind of experiences always touches your soul and bring some good out of us.

  1. Kerala is a beautiful place. I was born there and now I live aboard. Next time you visit, you should try out idukki, wagamon, munnar. It’s really a different atmosphere and you get to see a whole different side of kerala.
    I love reading your post. It reminds me what I love about my homeland—nature, the people and of course the food :). So thank you. Looking forward to reading more posts from you.

  2. This sounds like an amazing experience. I loved reading about your experience with the bus. They’re some of my favourite memories from my own travels.

  3. I have fond memories in Kerala as well. I’ve done a couple of my college projects in Kerala and I have lived there a month of so for those. Yes, even if we don’t know the local language, Keralites are incredibly kind and caring. Yes it is definitely safe there as well and the state’s natural beauty is splendid. I too recommend Kerala to many foreigners on their first trip to India.

  4. Kerala is on my list to visit & reading about it makes me even more keen to experience this beautiful place for myself. I love the ethos of the area which you write about with such warmth. It is always great to hear about places where the locals have such a generous spirit to visitors, like the man on the bus. Thank you for sharing – even more keen to visit now!

  5. I can see why Kerala might be called “Gods Own Country”. So great to be greeted by the locals with such warmth. Such a touching story you shared about getting help on the bus. I am sure the tranquil backwaters and misty mountain air would refresh my soul. As much as diving in the waves would invigorate me.
