So I’ve been on houseboats in Kerala twice now, and it’s something I’d happily do again. Beautiful.

There’s a network of canals, with rice fields below the canals and villages alongside, all connected to giant lakes. An amazing place. You sleep in the houseboats, eat there, and visit villages. Also: we ate huge local tiger shrimp with massive claws. They looked like extras from STARSHIP TROOPERS.

Bonus photo: closeup shot from the houseboat.

  1. There’s a big one in the pipeline, Guy. Busy putting away cash to pay for it. In the meantime, perhaps a little jolly down to Margaret River for some wine and cheese might do the trick.
