The much-awaited Philippine blogging awards is having their grand gala night on November 21, 2015. My blog has been nominated, it was such a privilege to at least be recognized after blogging for a couple of years already.
I wasn't able to explore much of Singapore during my first trip back in 2013, but this time around, I got to see some historical streets in this city-state.
India is a massive country with many places different from each other. There is no way to fully experience this country in just a month. I only managed to scratch the surface of this beautiful, yet polarizing nation.
It was my last few days in India. It felt surreal as I watched the countryside zip past me on the train from Kochi to Trichy. There was a calm yet anxious feeling brewing inside me. Is this finally the end of my trip to India or just a taste of new adventures? Would my wandering soul take me back to this beautifully crazy country? Ruminations aside, I kept my mind open on the things I could discover exploring Trichy.
Like many cities in India, Kochi is rich in culture and history that my friend and I were eager to explore. There were several beautiful and historical destinations that made our trip worthwhile.
Southern India was different from the places I visited in the north. The biggest difference was the temperature, I was freezing every night in Northern India, but as soon as I arrived in Bangalore, I couldn't wait to take my jacket off. Kochi, Kerala was hotter than Bangalore, the weather reminded me of the hot summer days back home in the Philippines. The moment I stepped on the platform, I was eager to explore the beautiful city of Kochi and its surrounding attractions.
