About me

Home

I was born and brought up in the town of Alwaye (Aluva), in the state of Kerala, India. If you haven't been to Kerala yet, I highly recommend a tour. Places to visit are Munnar (hill resort), Kovalam (beach), Wynad (forest and hikes for the rough and tough), Thekkadi (wildlife resort) and more. Spoken language in the state is Malayalam, which, I might add, is spoken really fast. For more about Kerala, please take a look at the website of "The Kerala Organization".
