    Hey guys! Would you also like to try kayaking in Kochi? Let us know down below!

      Just a note on the survey… I didn’t know where Kochi was before the video… but I do know now… Perhaps modify the questions to ask, “Before watching the video, did you know about…” Then you could add another answer of “I didn’t know, but I do now I’ve watched the video” Without these options it’s tricky to answer otherwise! And if you are gathering info to show a tourist board that you have been effective, it would be good to have clear evidence that the video works! I kind of specialise in these kinds of surveys and would happily give you an hour or so of my time for free as a pressie for all the wonderful content you’ve given us! If you’d like to reach out to me, go ahead :-)

    All the cicadas are actually a good sign, they mean the trees are healthy. See, the more cicadas in the environment the better the quality of soil (they live in the soil as larvae and when the adult cicadas die, they release things like nitrogen to help fertilize the soil). The more you know

We've just been packing up and going along local (ish) rivers, but would LOVE to do the Kochi river - きれいでづね?!

      @xm-5178 3 года назад +1

      Well, I do know of two spots consistently that have clean, clear blue water here in the US. Both are in Central Florida and are called Crystal Springs and Blue Springs. I've lived in the state since 2010 and visited both, each time amazed at how clear the water is. The water is at 72⁰F year round and a haven for manatees in the winter down here. As for other places with as clear a water clarity in the US, I'm pretty sure there are a good number of snowmelt fed rivers that follow the Rockies Mountain chain in adjacent states. Abandoned pit quarry's are also a good spot to look for but they can be deceptive with how clear the water can be. What looks like 5 feet may end up being close to 100

    In America we call that grilling. BBQ requires meat that has a sauce or dry rub applied and cooked slow--usually for hours.
