Travel for me is exploring culture, an insight into the unknown, it can be scary, exciting and tiring but it's these new experience which help me grow as a person. So decided to head to India for a short trip, Kochi, goa and Mumbai. I have no he what these areas are like so would be great to get some insight. Would be great to find speciality coffee shops, beaches, world wonders and and nice chill vibes. Oh and places for amazing food The best way to do that is for me to connect with the locals and they know best.
