Varkala is a small village perched on the edge of a cliff overlooking a long sandy beach.
To a degree my expectations of what India was like were formed last time I was here a couple of years ago and it is only on returning I realise how wrong they were. Westerners far outweigh Indians and there is a large choice of international food as they cater for the tourist market.
Although it took longer to get to Varkala from Chennai than London, it was only about a tenth of the price. Its a fantastic place to get away from Chennai, sit on the beach, swim in the sea, read a book and generally chillout.
Need to think of a caption.
