April in India
Kev and I went to India for two weeks in April. We went
to Kerala, it is so beautiful and the people are so so friendly. Yes there is a different lifestyle to our Western world
but there were times when I wondered who was in the best place.....
We stayed in a small hotel called Kadaloram Beach, Kovalam, Trivandrum. Hotel
was exactly what we wanted, small with very friendly staff and situated a little off of the main track. There were plenty
of restaurants to eat locally - walking distance or at the Lighthouse Beach -tut tut ride away. If you go try the Coconut
Grove - the fish was so delicious.....
Anyway, there are quite a number of yoga classes advertised all over the area and I
didn't really know which to go to so - I asked the hotel to recommend someone. And to my surprise they came back
and told me that they had arranged for a yoga teacher to come to the hotel each morning to give me a lesson!! This was
a real treat for me...and it was really inspiring being taught outside by someone who obviously lived yoga by the minute - I really enjoyed the classes both physically and spiritually.
We were invited to visit his yoga studio and his family. The yoga space is
ituated on the roof, made with natural materials and creates a wonderfully calm and tranquil atmosphere- so if anyone
is going to Kerala staying near Trivandrum - let me know and I will put you in touch with Gopi or contact
him direct - his email address is classicyoga2006@yahoo.com

Whilst exploring the Lighthouse beach area, we came
across a tailor and his team. What drew us to him was his amazing command of the English language and his very English
dialect. His name is Chandran and he made us some beautiful clothes. He also designed and made me some fabulous
yoga bags. The picture is one of his team outside the workshop.
