Q & A
Packing tips?
Bring light and airy clothes. It is very hot and humid and tight clothes will not feel good/ will also make you stand out like a sore thumb. Modest, breezy clothes are recommended!
Transportation Tips?
The train and bus rides are extremely long, usually over 12 hours. Make sure to book them ahead of time and to book a sleeper seat! Bring snacks and comfy clothes so that you can sleep during the ride.
Any surprises?
Holy Cow! There are soooo many cows in India and they are everywhere- on the street, on the beach and basically any other place you look!
Lodging
I stayed at a guest house in Pondicherry. There are many hostels and guest houses to stay at.
Lost Hostel: Friendly staff and comfortable accommodation. The staff are helpful in planning tours and socializing guests.
The lost Hostel Palolem: this hostel is right near the beach and like most lost hostels, it has very helpful staff!
