Kerala Pictorial by Rian Maelzer

Kerala Pictorial by Rian Maelzer.

After seeing my Kerala post, my friend Rian Maelzer messaged me and said Kerala’s a tremendous holiday destination. “Easy to get around. Varied. Consistently fantastic food.” The veteran international journalist and seasoned traveler has a good eye for photography and he was there for a vacation with his family,

He kindly allowed me to share his gallery. Here are some pics I like, all unedited. I invite Rian to add more info in comment of each pic so viewers know what they are looking at. Interesting that he visited the world’s richest temple in Trivandrum where they found buried treasures worth USD 20 billion!

Milestone and Kochi

Milestone and Kochi.

I received my first bookings to India today. Hotels booked were in the cities of Amritsar, New Delhi and Cochin (Kochi). Thank you anonymous stranger/user, whoever you are.

Pictures from my Malaysian friend, the lovely Maria Bernadette on FB (@maria160791 on IG), who coincidentally, is in Cochin or Kochi and the tea valleys of Munnar in Kerala state this moment. She said the monsoon is bearing down hard this time of the year. That makes the landscape more interesting.

Kochi is pronounced as in Co Chee or as in Kuih Kochi. India is such a big and vast country, use the new search at the sidebar to find the cities.
