I remember in Goa the cows would all come down to the beach at sunset, lie on the beach and chill. They were very tame. In the morning the old ladies would come and pick up the cow pats as when they were brick hard. They then used them for cooking fuel. Nothing wasted like in the west.

The food falls before I can get it to my mouth! I think the chopped up parratha with chicken might be kottu roti. The monkey pissing on you was hilarious. We’re always very wary of them.

[@webabhi]

In Coastal Tamil Nadu these places are great 1) Shore Temples of Mahabalipuram, 2) French Town Pondicherry 3) Auroville Ashram 4) Thanjavur Chola Temples Auroville is a place like no other. In continental Tamil Nadu these places are great 1) Ooty and Coonor, they have great tea plantations and extremely cool climate like Doi Inthanon Park in Thailand 2) Coimbatore especially the ISHA foundation run by Sadhguru is awesome 3) Madurai with Meenakshi Temple. But this is just one state in India, I think South Karnataka with Bengaluru, Mysore, Madikeri, Chikamangalur is great. Kerala is in another dimension in terms of beauty.
