goan seas and corona

by Akash K S (India)

A leap into the unknown India

I never he would go this crazy... It was a strange but very funnny night experience in goa .It was our final year and the colleges banned us from college final year tour due to corona issue. I was disturbed and had nothing in mind but an unplanned unofficial trip to some chil place.There were some like me who want to also have a trip to some great place just to get out of this college boredom. I found nine others at class lab time who said we should defenitely go to 'Goa'.I didnt know anything but goa was a beach paradise for foriegners and Indians.Which has a latin touch in India.lots of foreign settlers and this state in southern India was a party/chill hub and was easy for us because we are also from south India. we grabbed a night train to Goa and tomoroow was shivratri and there was a lot of parties there.A lot of malayalis like me goes there throught the year for unknown reasons.Our hoMestate Kerala looked the same coconut trees,backwaters and beaches what sseperates goa from ours is the croud and beach water colour as the beaches were turquoise to green and most of keral beaches were grey. There was 12hour journey from Kerala to Goa and night travel in trains were a diffrent mmod especially when u sit on the doorside because there were no seats due to the crowd in general compartment.the train swinged and screeched along the path and starryskies were providing enough light to show us whats underneath the sky.Train ride through Kerala shows people friendly areas as there is very little rural feel even in rural places .u can ge anything easily just travelling about 1km radius.but the next state Karanataka was a ghostly charmed place.it had the rural nature untouched areas due low people density the states train routes were ver scenic and nature friendly,especially the station at karwar with surrounding mountains spreading far along your eyegaze.... to be continued.,,,
