Hi Folks. Hope you are not feeling bored with my recent posts. You are welcome to give out your suggestions and criticisms which helps me grow! :)
Some of you may find this post as a personal one. Myself, being a person born and brought up in Kerala, is attached to nature and natural beauty. I have tried writing poems, short stories etc inspired by nature. I also love to travel a lot. I have been in and around Kerala but i still feel that i have not explored the place completely.
An ordinary tourist finds out the famous places that tourists visit in the particular area and tags along with other tourists to explore the place. On the contrary, if you want to experience the real - life experience of the locals, please do explore the villages and interior parts of the place. If you are travelling to Kerala, especially Alappuzha, someone or the other may recommend you to visit the rice bowl of Kerala, Kuttanad. If you explore to the interiors of Kuttanad, you can understand how the locals live there.
Devote few days to experience the local lifestyle. Have food from the small shops there which are authentic and consumed by the localites. Stay in the house of any localite, live like how they live, understand the culture and tradition by communicating to the people around. Visit the fields, find out how people work hard to earn their daily bread. In short, be one among them!
I have only mentioned the case of Kerala. To enjoy the real beauty of the place, it is essential that we explore locally and try out their lifestyle. Some of us may find it difficult but life is all about taking risks.. right? Take a few risks, adjust with the localites to experience their life! It can definitely create wonderful memories for you to carry back home.
Blend with the nature. Go ahead! Keep this in mind the next time you travel! :)
