That's what you get when you google for 'kerala'. But that's not what you really encounter when you visit the state. I left for God's Own Country on the 29th of this month. I was really excited about coming over here as I will be meeting Amy in a couple of days, but the first two days of have been quite a bummer. To start with our train 'Netravati Express' was awful. I swear this is the last time I am traveling in this train. Or maybe second last time as I have already booked my return tickets too on this god forsaken train.
Let me describe you what the train is like. Its dirty, stinking, with coffee, tea and what not stains. It's filled with cockroaches and mice. I had a disgusting moment while talking to Amy. I was in a nice super romantic mood. Talking sweetness to Amy, resting my head on the window, when I a lil mouse just walked through between the glasses in front of my face. I felt like scratching my face. It was that disgusting. Totally ruined the romance. Anyway the train ride wasn't comfortable. The AC wasn't cool enough, we kept sweating it out throughout the journey. Though my brother and I tried to have a lot of fun.. we poked fun at our miserable condition, and how I ordered pretty much every food item i saw to eat.
We got to this place yesterday evening, our train wasn't pretty much on time, maybe delayed by 10 minutes. But a 10 minute delay isn't much. I was happy to get home, but not for too long. After spending nearly 30 hours in the awful train, I wanted to take a good shower, but it was all muddy water in the tap. I don't understand how? But its quite a bummer. I thought that was it, but no.. some more hell was in store for us. When we went off to bed, our whole body began to scratch. I thought maybe its dust, so got up in the middle of the night and switched the lights on & began to dust it. And we found a live worm roaming on the bedsheets.. it was the most disgusting thing ever. I got up.. and slept on the couch in the living room. It wasn't a comfortable sleep at least it was a bug free one.
