Another Georgeous Homestay

I sat on the patio of this georgeous building sipping coffee and munching through substantial amounts of breakfast.

I remarked to James the other guy at the homestay how lucky we were. The view was fantastic, our hosts exceptional, the food outstanding. And all for the princely sum of 2000Rupees. That’s just over 20 quid. You can hardly get a cup of coffee and a croissant for that in UK.

I had specifically selected this homestay because of its remoteness, it was a seriously good find. And just the 2 if us there chatting about life. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Unfortunately, the irony is not lost on me that the first time I bite into a lovely piece of soft fruit, I crunch down on a pip and a big chunk of tooth broke away. Here’s hoping all will be ok for the next 50 days or so.

I finally left at 10am. All sort of downhill to Kochi. I adjusted my route to a Decathlon store to see if they had a saddle and/or a tyre. No luck. The third bike store I went to had a saddle it’s sort of the right shape and plastic…. it’ll have to do, the old Brooks is hanging on their wall. My back tyre is nearly used up, I am going back tomorrow to try and swap the tyres around. I have a few mls. Of tubeless fluid. So hopefully it will be OK.
