Accomodations

One of the things I learn as I travel in India, is not to go cheap with accommodations.

After a day in the streets, visiting sites, seeing hundreds of people or just arriving from a long journey, you will want a cozy silent
space.

Here are options you may find useful as well as information on accommodation in Kerala.

If you are arriving in Amritsa for the connection flight you should reserve at the hotel THE GOLDEN. It is just a few steps from the golden temple, the sacred site of the Sikh.

One of the things that really stands out when I travel to India is the social and religious protocol.

The way you dress and the manners you display set up the respect they offer to you.

I remember entering into Hilton Hotel in Amritsa with a group of American travelers. The Americans were in front of me, and as they walked through the doors of the hotel, the door keeper offered them a profile of casual friendliness.

When he saw me, dressed in white and with my turban on, he put his his feet firmly together and saluted me as a soldier would salute a captain. He guided me to the front desk and gave a command to the receptionist to serve me first.

Here are some things considered unacceptable by the Indian society:

Taking care of Air Pollution

Apply one dropper every day in each nostril

To arrive in Dehli for the first time is definitely a cultural shock, however one of the things that really can deplete you is the lack of fresh air. There is a lack of it due to pollution and many of the roads are dirt and can create lots of dust.


The majority of the vehicles in the cities are two stroke engines. This has caused some severe pollution problems. New Delhi once was quite horrendous but they have passed some laws and actually implemented them and now all the 3 wheelers and taxis are run on natural gas and the situation is much improved. 

Although it is still not the same as in our Canadian Cities,so if you normally have difficulty breathing bring some liquid oxygen, a small scarf to cover your nose, and of course your Nasya oil. 

Kannur, Kerala is en front of the sea, free from heavy pollution. So no need to worry while you are in Kannur of air problems.

Washrooms

To arrive in an international airport or a small town in India with your bladder full can be an adventure.

You may find a very modern bathroom, or the squat style toilets, which are ground level. In  my opinion, they facilitate a  healthy position to eliminate. The part that you need to know to be prepare is that you need to enter the facilities with a tissue packet. In some parts they may require a rupee.


Traditionally they use water to wash your self after the job. That's what the bucket beside the toilet is for.

Please be prepared for unsanitary conditions. This is a great way to experience something you do all the time in a  different manner and gives you the opportunity to see how people do things differently around the world.

In our accommodations is Kannur we enjoy the western style. Quiet comfortable bathrooms awaits you.

Gender

India has always impressed me with their dress code. I have seen
very poor people with flashy saris, or working people with clean and
spotless white clothing. It is surely a diversity but you will be
judged by what you wear.

India is a very male-based society. Women are only just now starting
to take on careers of their own (more so in the big cities than in
the villages). Indian men have the impression of Western women that
they are loose and easy, and have gotten this idea from American
movies where there are displays of sex and nudity. There is no such
thing in Indian films.

If you dress modestly and conduct yourself gracefully there will be
no problem.

Food

Indian food offers a variety of vegetarian dishes. Some can be spicy specially in rstaurants. We however, will be all pampered by our private chefs. They know the western taste as well as our ayurvedic treatments requirements. 




We also, will have available, home cooking from near by home restaurants.

To keep your taste buds happy and your tummy healthy, here are a few
suggestions:

Security

When you are traveling in a sacred journey anything can be possible, including loosing your valuables. I traveled several times to "dangerous" places and if you use your common sense and take some precautions, you will be ok.

Kannur is a small city, quiet and safe.

Here some tips:

Water solutions

Traveling to underdeveloped countries can be a challenge when the
topic of water comes into play.

India's water supply is not the greatest which makes it very important
to take precautions in order to stay healthy.

Here are some tips:

Packing list

Travel as light as possible without depriving yourself of your needs.

I like to pack minimum clothes and renew my wardrobe with beautiful silks and natural Indian cotton. Temperature in south India in Feb is around 25 c.

Not all of these items are necessary but most
are recommended, especially if you will be staying for a good amount of time.

Visa and documents

Dear One:

You will need to get a TOURIST visa before you leave to go to magical India. 

Of course your passport need to be valid.
