The cliff and
beaches of Varkala are the Goa of the South, just without the Trance parties.
Great place to hang out and feel like home while you eat the fresh catch of the
day.

There is one
thing in India which strikes me most and that is the rubbish. Sadly, where ever
you go, it is full of rubbish. Plastic is just everywhere. As a critical person
I have to admit that I contribute to the amount of rubbish by not drinking the
local tap water and buying bottled water however my stomach is not necessary
made for the local water either.
Varkala is
basically a cliff edge with the walkway at the edge and the beach at the
bottom. Any rubbish accumulated on the walkway is simply being brushed off the
walkway down the cliff. The habit might clean up the path in front of the shops
and restaurant, but a sneak over the edge sadly reveals an incredible amount of
plastic. I am not sure what to do about it except of binning my own garbage but
things like that start in the head of people. I can only assume that for the
transition from banana leafs to plastic foil for the food wrapping went far too
fast. Wake up.
