Fort cochin kerela

on the pull :-))
Our trip to Kerela was such a memorable one kerela far outshines GOA It is still unspoilt by tourism a few backpackers and thats it!!! There are no big hotels as such in cochin just some realy pleasent homestays/ Small b&b.s guesthouses. Also you do not get as much hasttle from the locals as you do in goa.
Here is a pic of the lads who work the chinese fishing nets. It is realy hard work and they earn little money for the few fish they do catch
home from home

Our homestay in cochin

This is one of the homestays we we were at for a few days while in cochin. its was so clean& friendly. We paid about 700irps per night with aircon This was about the average price for middle of the road accomadation

This is the main meeting place for backpackers and tourists alike it provides very cheap acommadation 300 to 500irps per room per night very basic no air con ceiling fan. BUT the food is superb and very cheap awesome cakes etc :-))) it has internet access. and telephone
