      If you want to eat beef in kerala you can, also there are people in kerala who eat pork, muslims and some Hindus and some Christians don't eat pork but Muslims and other's have no problem with others eating it. Similarly, there are some people in Kerala who do not eat beef.. they have no problem with others eating it.
      But there are also news in Kerala where Hindutva extrem*sts beat up shops for selling beef, Kerala is the state with the highest number of rss hindutva terror*st organization units in India, now they are doing a lot to divide people, all the time their job is to spread islamophobia, but they eat beef secretly.

When I just started travelling, I definitely had to get used to a lot of things, but I learned that travelling for me is all about putting yourself out of your comfort zone and adjusting yourself to your environment and the people you are with. You will learn so much and you will also notice that people are really very helpful everywhere. Your question is if I ever got frustrated and overwhelmed with these things. Yes for sure! This video show all the best moments and there are definitely also a lot of moments in which I am very socially drained tired or over sensed with culture shock, but it’s so worth it.

      @thewhatorwhy I agree. And not to spread hate, but North Indian tourists are extremely rude, ignorant, and they're not at all mindful.
      I'm from Fort Kochi and it's impossible to step outside of my house during Christmas and New Year as there is quite literally a human stampede. There really should be some kind of restriction at this point.

      India is a diverse country where people have the right to live and work anywhere. Blaming North Indians for migration overlooks the contributions they make to the economy and culture. Instead of creating divisions, let's focus on unity and making our state welcoming while ensuring sustainable growth for all.
      People moving across states is part of what makes our country so vibrant and interconnected. Instead of blaming migration, let’s focus on how we can build an inclusive community where everyone contributes positively to the growth of the region. After all, aren't we all Indians first?

      @@manusoni9738 It's good that you have such a mindset. But unfortunately, most North Indians do not think that way. They come here and they expect us to treat them like they're our Gods and we're their slaves. That's how most of their behaviour is.
      We malayalees are welcoming of all cultures, but migration is still bad due to both language and culture barriers. North Indians are not open to learning other languages as they expect everyone else to know Hindi. Look at what happened to Bangalore. It's so overcrowded by outsiders that their own culture is no more. And it's a fact that North Indians look down on South Indians and North East Indians by calling us idli sambar and chinese. They are racist towards their own fellow citizens. So it doesn't make it easy to get along with them.

    India has so much to offer for travelers and tourists. There are so many places that it will take you a life time to see.
    As a malayali I would say go offbeat in India in states like Kerala,goa, Himachal..then go with a guide around sikkim, north bengal,northeastern states like assam, meghalaya, nagaland, arunachal. I also believe andaman, lakshadweep, jharkhand, odisha are really underrated places but be careful out there. Try to avoid the crowded cities maybe except Varanasi and jaipur...

These people are the ones who have to be given all support for their survival and wish more and more tourists visit this place so that they can earn for few months to live the rest of the months when there are no earnings. Some innovative methods also should be found out by experts and Govt. to make their life safe during heavy rains and floods. But Indian Govt. or concerned authorities least care for them.

    Man. I'm from Kerala and it feels weird being able to understand them speaking. Like usually when I watch videos of people going to other countries I can't understand them. Also Side note Kerala has a lot of accents. Different districts may have their own accent, and I love the accent these guys have. South coast, alapuzha(place) perhaps. I'm from palakkad, inland area. Visit inland sometime😊
