Oh, you have hit me right where it takes. I took to marketing profession despite having options of going to government job with many more facilities. I am in traveling for last few decades with my cameras ever ready.
thats a great way of living - see the world and earn :cheer: there is no experience like travelling on the spur of the moment We have done it a couple of times and it is great fun...
Yes i have done lots of traveling on my own as well, I mean not with company's expenses. I have even traveled on foot for hours along alone in the hills during my visits. I would walk for hours on the hilly roads while there were no buses available after evening hours. I have seen almost every hill station in India including Kurag. I mentioned Kurag with a special purpose and you know why!
Are you trying to pull my leg? I only misspelled it it should be Coorg. Sorry.

LOL, OK got it, it is just about 130 kms from Mangalore and at times we take the round about route through Coorg and mysore while driving to Bangalore since it is a lovely drive...You must have climbed up the Brahmagiri range in western ghats there ...

The way the women wore their sari there was so fascinating, the height from see level was not much but the place was beautiful. I saw a shooting of a film there. Yes I walked all on foot since the place was not so big, or I was not there for long enough.
Yes I know as I have seen most places in that area, I had been to Mangalore long back, I remember I went to Calicut from there now they call it Kozikode. Actually this is all in one straight line from Mangalore to Trivendrum. All along the coast.

Yes thats right ! Mangalore borders the state of Kerala and one can find lot of Malayalees in Mangalore.There is a lot of shared influence on either side and Mangalorean food too has a lot of Kerala influence in it.
BTW, what did you think of Kodavas, they are originally of Greek descent and known for their good looks..

I think I told you earlier also that I like the way they look and behave, I met on SP of police in Coorg a young boy long back, he was such a handsome boy (looked like a Punjabi boy). I think these Kodvas belong to Thakur clan and look like kings and queens. I liked the way they wear their sari. Lovely looking guys. Why did you ask this in particular?

Kodavas have Greek blood in them.They trace their ancestry to Alexander and his army which wandered south and a few of them settled down in Coorg and made it their home marrying the local girls...Do you know that there are very few authentic Kodavas, just 5 main families and all are somehow or the other related to these five families..
