Backwaters - the place to relax

Another must do in Kerala is a Backwater trip and I even wanted to the stay the night there, so I booked with Wilson Travels and was picked up in the morning and driven to a Backwater farm.

There I boarded the houseboat (kettuvalayam) and two men navigated the engine-less boat through the backwaters and the cook prepared lovely fish & sea food for me.

The trip was very relaxing and I saw a lot of different birds, coconuts and Chinese fishernets.

In the evening, the cook showed me around the village before we returned to the boat for dinner.

In the night, I was sleeping well under the mosquito net and was woken up in the morning by the birds.
