What else ...
I'm just beginning to explore around me. Big cities like Trivandrum and Cochin are around 2-3 hours away. The coastal town of Varkala is an hour away. The closest town is Sasthamcotta which has an old temple and a large fresh water lake which has been designated as an important ramsar site. Kerala has a dense network of roads, many of which are rural, so traveling around is easy. Wayanad is about 3 hours away.
