We went to Kumily and planned on staying no more than 2 days...we ended up staying one week and it was one of our favorite place. The people are amazingly sweet, there is so much to do and see. We've made friends with a family, they are renting a hut close to the Thekady park that's called "french bakery restaurant", Subha makes amzing food with fresh vegetables and makes it to your taste. Their son Hemant is a lovely boy of 5 that speaks a little english and is full of joy and smiles. Their hut has only 2 rooms, the kitchen in wich they sleep at night and the other room with 2 tables, a fridge and a tv. So it is their home and restaurant at the same place. It#s a great place and ... read more

From Hampi we made our way to Ooty, stayed a couple of day in Mysore first, very crowded city but that is where the palace of the Taj Mahal is...so we couldn't miss that! We stayed in a little village outside the city with the name of Sri Rangapatnam. We stayed about a week in Ooty where we went horse back riding, motorcycle driving through the mountains (2600m altitude!). We also spent some time in a village we were invited to where I learned how to dance like a real Indian woman! I also learned some Baduga language and Thomas learned to play cricket and also to dance with the boys! It was magical....As you will see on the pictures!... read more
