I'm surprised you diligently kept your blog up in the face of adversity...
perhaps as a public service for others considering spending 3 months in India on a backpackers budget. Anyway, great to hear you survived...Thailand is a wonderful change so am looking forward to your time there...again.

Agree with you about Kochi
We so agree...we were distinctly underwhelmed by Kochi and Alleppey as well - we just couldn't understand what everyone was raving about with those two places! When we were at Varkala the waves were HUGE and found this was a great deterrent to the happy snapper Indian men and spent most of our time having fun in the waves as they were too scared to venture near the water. We found the same as you, by eating in the 'Western' restaurants here the quality of the food really jumped. Hope you are both well xx

The inbetween Manado to Makassar is like the Midwest USA NYC-LA. Best to fly over it. Thx for the blog. My traveling partner wanted to go overland on the trip you blog about. Not anymore. Now it is Manado, Bunaken, Tongean and back to Manado to fly to Lombok

India trip
I love how honest you are about your experience in India, I wish I could scoop you guys up and transfer you to a place you enjoyed better, like Thailand! Just reading about the food part and the pillow and the poop makes me cringe! But i hope things turn around soon before you arrive back home! Thanks for sharing your beautiful pictures and travels -Jennifer

Amazing blog !!!
This India blog series is so amazing. It kept me up last night, just when I thought the shock value can't get anymore better, then it just did. Dead bodies floating in the water, photos of filth everywhere, being sprayed with insecticide, all of these surrounds you, while you guys talk about how the food was really delicious. I just can' get the thought of lack of sanitation with delicious food, hihihi. It is really an entertaining blog. I'm sure you guys are enjoying the experience but this one is definitely not going in our bucket list. Really love reading your blogs.

good review
First, let me say thanks to you guys for taking the time to write a review on the towns you visited, I just arrived at luwuk the day before yesterday and find myself at loss about how BORING this town is. Good thing you didn't stay too long. I am excited about your review regarding tana toraja and their cultures, wondering how much you paid for the guides and all the groceries you presented to the grieving family?

Hi William!
Sorry if this gets to you too late, we've been a bit lazy with the blog lately. We're pretty sure we bought a couple packs of cigarettes and a couple pounds of sugar for the family. We didn't spend as much as our guide told us we should but we also had an "interesting" guide for that day. Let's just say we wouldn't recommend him. :) Hope things went well with you if you're past Tana Toraja and enjoy the rest of Indo!

Hey it is us from the train. We found your blog and enjoyed looking at it. Your exprience on the sleeper seems horrible! We had some tough rides on local buses, but have luckily not had such drama on the train. Your post makes me want to visit Amritsar next time I'm in India.

Hey guys
Sorry it took sooo long to get back to you. We have to say, we're not exactly missing India while we relax with amazingly friendly locals in the Philippines. We're not exactly going to be rushing back anytime too soon :) Hope everything is going well for you both and we really enjoyed meeting you!!

Wow, that was a very strong impression that the country left on you. Thank you for expressing your honest opinion, it is highly appreciated. I have heard that people who go there either love it or hate it.
