I'm here in the busy and beautiful city of Kochi in Kerala and we are
in the south of India so after so many comments telling me to visit God's own
country I finally arrived and I can't wait to have some Adventures meet some locals
is it a berry and try the amazing food in this special part of the country in this video we're
going to try some South Indian and Kerala Classics for the first time while finding out what Kochi
has to offer and today we're going to Fort Kochi apparently it is definitely a must-see if you come
to this part of India but first I always start my day with a chai. do you have chai um how much okay
ten can I have one what's what's this name lime juice yes is it good how much is it 20 okay can we
have one of them as well we got here and there was a guy slurping down some juice and it looks good
so we're gonna try the lime juice and also I have to have my morning chai 30 rupees all together
okay so I have a hot chai and a cold lime juice oh okay I've been telling you to try this okay I like
this sour like citrus but they've definitely put sugar in it so it's like sweet at the same time
it's kind of cool maybe I haven't had other lime juices to compare it to so it seems super popular
so I'm glad I tried that everyone stopping to grab one of these lime juices across the road
yeah look let me try this try chai we're going this way okay the try is not my favorite chai
how much is the banana 10 Rupees we'll just have one one yeah can we just have one no sorry thank
you all right we're gonna grab a fried banana we were just walking past and we're like hey
that's a banana so he just came in it's for 10 Rupees for one so let's see thank you [Music]
thank you thank you so much thank you it's a little bit floppy oh that would have been so
nice fresh so we're just walking down these really local streets to get to Marine Drive which will
then take us on a boat we have to pay for I think it's a couple of rupees to get to Fort Kochi 12
rupees you said for two of us each I thought he said 200 I was I was like huh this is the boat
out to Fort Kochi let's see how we go so this is actually pretty cool it's going
at like sort of a very leisurely Pace takes about 15 minutes I think so we'll
see how long it takes when we get to the other side it's nice the breeze is nice
no thank you so I guess no thank you so I guess this is Fort cochi so we're heading into the city
part now and it's looking so cute look at this like oh I'm looking in the viewfinder but I can
see like the buildings and everything just looks really nice this is the back Waters so you have
um it could be like a day trip or something it looks really nice we've actually chosen
to do something else here with our time in Kochi and karela so make sure you do
um subscribe if you want to see that that's the next video I think we've come to this stall on
the side and I know we kind of ate not that long ago but look how many people are having
these bananas that we had this morning but these ones seem like Super Fresh look at all
the people eating these bananas I'll see what it is like compared to the one this morning sorry
egg
thank you thank you there's lots of this
um like it's not a scarf or it looks like a little dress it's not a dress
so lots of people wearing this traditional what looks like a dress but I'm not sure so if you know
what it is tell me I don't want to point the camera at them without them but yeah they're
wearing them all down there and around that so tell me what that's called oh that's good this
one is So Fresh So crispy oh what's it called in the Philippines it was called bananaque today's
Vlog had no real plan besides get to Fort cochi which is pretty much what we've done so let's
go to this Cafe and figure out what we're gonna do from here there's this one here so we need to
figure out what the best site to see here in Fort coochie is and to do that we're going to have to
join this Wi-Fi in the cafe so guys whenever you travel you should have a VPN installed on your
phone for moments like this so luckily this video is sponsored by nordvpn so it may not seem like
you would need it but cafes and public Wi-Fi areas are actually pretty scary so I'm gonna actually
set up a fake Wi-Fi network that you think will own the cafe and then you join it and Bam they're
stolen your sensitive information so if we just pop onto nordvpn before we connect it makes sure
that even if it is a fake Network your data is safe and secure so the team at nordvpn have been
kind enough to give you guys a special deal if you sign up with Josie nordvpn you will get four
months free and 61 off so I'm going to leave it in the description bar and in a pinned comment for
you so I do strongly recommend a VPN like Nord as a travel essential to be honest it helps us
while traveling to log into bank accounts social medias just accessing our personal information
without worrying so I have this weird thing where I have to watch something when I eat so
what I usually do is use the VPN to access Netflix from whatever country that I want and for the boys
Marco uses it to access Sports so we can watch it for free wherever we are around the world as well
thank you oh sugar okay thank you thank you for that unfortunately for coffee
lovers like me you're hard-pressed to find a good one this is a Spanish omelette I'm
trying not to let it fall off my plate so Michael got this watermelon and lime juice
this is delicious all right so now we know where we're going and what we're gonna see here let's
head off to see the fisherman's Nets first I think okay so you're at the Chinese fishing nets now and
all these little like local stores back here along the way as well but the waters right here I get a
nice Cool Breeze what's it where's the net no if they're up in the air there but I'm taking
this guy like these guys on this boat right now yeah right there they're fishing so these are the
fishing nets there and they're still used today Michael was telling me how fishing works because
I don't really know um but it gets dropped down into the water from the height fish swim into it
and it comes back up and that's how you fish I'm actually not sure that's not how it works I don't
understand okay I still want to get it hi hi so apparently this was one of the things to do here
um but I don't know well it's not one of the things to do it's just part of the history it's
just part of the history okay India and China are one of the first countries to trade sure so that's
a Chinese invention that they sort of gifted India in return for whatever India gave them back in the
day okay as a tourist uh destination underwhelming and I love history probably interesting
okay so it is very hot time I think down in the south of India right now and we are
both struggling with the heat at the moment I can't stop sweating so okay so we're walking
along here and there's just a fallen Beach here this is really cool it's obviously not the same
Vibes as Goa where we just came from I'm going to link that video on the screen for you right now
I almost fell on these rocks um I have to say we are very blessed in Australia to have such nice
beautiful beaches but it is pretty cool to see we've been in cities mostly besides Galway in
India so this is cool to see a beach nonetheless there is a lot of rubbish everywhere um no denying
that it's everywhere all over the beach so uh not very inviting for me for that reason but
so the other thing to see that we saw online was this Basilica but I can't get in there's
a closer oh it's closed yeah we're here a little bit later today so we can't go in it's uh locked
off by this thing it was built by the Portuguese knocked down at some point and then rebuilt by
the British oh and in the mid 900s the pope declared at a basilica which I think it's not
religious I think means like a important Church of some sort so we've seen it there's a lot of
cat to Cal e Mandela pen I probably butchered that but there's a lot of these around the
um Island it's like a cultural thing where they put makeup on and dance as well but we've kind of
come at the wrong time we've missed the beginning and yeah so I'm not sure what we can do or see
what how much is the show 500 rupees a person is it possible to pay just to see the makeup without
the show it's one big ticket right we can't do that okay that's all right thank you so much
anyway thank you we have to head back thank you hi do you have cold water oh one how much is it
yeah perfect oh yeah oh thank you oh it takes them across on the bike oh that's cool I'm dying of the
heat in case you can't tell I traveled back to the city from four Kochi covered in sweat from
the Kerala Heat Wave but excited to get some rest before a big day of trying some mouth-watering
street food all right so we are about to get some chai but I have been reading all of your comments

didn't understand this one's supposed to be sweet it's like a bready ball it kind of reminds me
of banana bread but that's better this one's my favorite more than the other one that's for sure
