    2. Everybody is indoor because it is so hot outside; (west loves sunny days, kerala loves cold weather) Kerala cold = west warm = 70 degree farenheit. Try not to go out during the day time, the state is on Yellow Heat Alert now.
    3. People are super helpful and can share a lot of information that is not present on Google Search;

    India has 28 states and 8 Union Territories. Foreigners often visit Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Agra, or Rajasthan and find it busy. Sometimes, they visit Kerala and say, "I never knew India had such relaxed places; it's different from what I expected."
    You guys only explored cities, which is just a small part of the country. I can tell you about more than 15 states and Union Territories like Lakshadweep, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Ladakh, Puducherry, Jammu and Kashmir, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Goa, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, and Uttarakhand in India. Then, you probably say the same thing, "This doesn't seem like India." But if you keep visiting just Delhi or Mumbai repeatedly, you say, "This is what India feels like." However, many of the 15 or more states don't match that perception.

    Nice video. Enjoyed it. Sorry to see you struggle in the sweltering summer heat. Summer this year has been exceptionally brutal. Try to avoid going out between 11AM and 4PM unless you are in hill-stations like Munnar, Thekkady, Wayanad etc. Those hill-stations - with their rolling tea/coffee/cardamom plantations and winding roads - are great visual treats and the main reason why Kerala is called 'God's Own Country'.
    Hope you will have a wonderful and pleasant time in Kerala and elsewhere in India. Looking forward to your next video...

    south india is best visited during monsoon season approximately … June through september. Cool weather. The trade off , of course , there are some days that it could rain continously for a couple if days , but its like in the US , during winter , there may be that bad one week. ( in Arizona , South of Flagstaff we dont have to worry about snow), but otherwise Monsoon is the best time to visit South India.

During my ocassional trips to Fort Kochi, it was one of the coolest (I meant weather-wise) place in mid-Kerala. Today things have changed. Have to blame the real estate build up in the whole of the country which has eliminated as many trees as possible and the carbon pollution.

    In the old days, there used to be huge trees in front and almost everywhere (banyan tree, i think) around the Basilica and pretty much everywhere there was shade but now, in the name of development and all, they seem to have cut down all the good ol' trees. What a shame! In the afternoon, you would hear thousands and thousands of leaves a-fluttering and if you just sit somewhere in the shade, you could easily fall asleep to a quick nap.

      Thanks guys! We love your channel, so that means a lot!☺
      Luckily we knew the weather ahead of time and decided to brave the heat because we've wanted to come here for awhile, but it really is quite hot. Kerala is BEAUTIFUL and everyone is so friendly, so definitely keep it on your bucket list for next time!

    Man you guys are so upbeat about Kerala now. I remember most Keralites just randomly raved about Kerala to foreigners, nobody was paying attention. The tourism minister sure did his magic, noticing more and more of people like this now.
    Kerala is more like thailand where you can just wander around and find something nice. It's not like Delhi.
    But not every restaurant or food place is going to be very healthy for you aka many common snacks are deep fried, alot of sugar etc. Maybe a smaller percentage might be give you diarrhea but I haven't had a problem for ages now. Vet restaurants like how you might vet restaurants in the USA.
    Guys if you'd like please take a look at the movie Aadujeevitham (the goat life), it's a malayalam movie about surviving in the gulf desert, kind of like cast away. The director wanted to release during the summer, so that people can feel the heat.
    I don't know about subtitles.

      @@uchihamadaragaming5309 I have heard this from people visiting there, so not my opinion. Sorry if it hurts your sentiments. I heard not every body can run around Delhi and always find great things to buy or experience and have a great time. I might be wrong.

    Actually Kochi is the most happening place in Kerala but unfortunately you guy came at the wrong time. It would be more interesting if you would have come during Nov-Dec, if so you would be able to experience the Kochin carnival and the Christmas celebrations those are simply awesome. By the way thank you for visiting our place and hope you had a good time there. Hope you will come again but make sure come during the winter season 😉 🎉❤. All the best, Take care

    Moreover, Kerala is the birth place of "Kalaripayattu" the oldest martial art known as the mother of all martial arts. Britishers and Portuguese first landed on Kerala and later colonised india for its treasures. Also visit Alapuzha district for houseboat rides known as the veneace of india same like idukki for munnar and highrange regikns. Too much to see here guys but u guys at the hottest time of the decade now. Best option is to visit munnar anyway as it's cool there now
