Reach Sri Lanka bro highly recommended u guys will love it there. Beautiful scenery. Try nuwaralia, batticalo, trinco, and monumental places like sigriya rock.
Sorry dude. No civic sense among people. I feel your pain. I scold people for littering. 10 -20 years back it was much cleaner in Kerala. Tourism and migration from other parts has destroyed it. Sorry about it.
Even though I am from Tamil Nadu I am really proud of Kerala ."THE BEST" state in India for Tourists . Their culture and greenary of Kerala attracts everyone in the world. So only It is called God's own Country.
Kerala is so pretty. Such friendly people. And yet, so dirty like most places in Inda. Why don’t people think about dropping trash in bins and forming orderly queues to begin with
That's not true, passenger trains r crowded but General coach express trains (like the one in this video) in north is equally same; maybe delhi, haryana, west up like places train r what u talking about coz In most of other north states passenger train & general birth trains ppl r also the nicest, sharing, helping, talkative with enough space & no bullying, se8ual harassment to transgenders (unlike this foreigner has stereotyped due to non-north indians comments) but equally believe in they bless & ppl give money too here.
The temple you have seen from the bus is the heart of the city. Richest temple in the world physical value is more than 1 trillion rupees . Its antique value is more beyond as it has even so many roman era gold coins. Rare precious stones across the word etc .
Hi Ellis, When you are in Kerala, explore a little bit more. There are so many beautiful places like Wayanad, Munnar, Varkala, Vagamon, Ernakulam, Kozhikode, Kannur. Please don’t miss it. The way you are interacting with people you will find the place like one of the best experiences. Some people are little rude not as innocent as Tamil people. But if you talk to them they will help.
Do you think that they are rude or it just seems that way because they are embarrassed to communicate, it's been said about some Chinese and other countries but it might just be language barrier.
Thiuvanathapuran is composed of three words, Thiru (a salutation) + Anantha ( the snake figure on whom Lord Vishnu rests) + Puram (abode). The deity at the world-famous temple at Trivandrum is that. The temple is the richest one in the world. It's 5 underground vaults contain about 100 billion dollars worth of gold and precious stones. A few years ago a Supreme Court appointed appraiser unit calculated that amount after checking 4 vaults. The sealed 5th vault was not opened.
ah mate 16:17 that is absolutely unreal 😍Loved this mate, proper journey full of nice people, classic indian sleeper train feels. For my money, EllisWR is the best in the business
That's not true , I'm from Telangana unless you travel in Superfast where you only have 1or2 coaches where it's full with north people, but if you travel in any express or local trains mostly they are empty, and now buses are free for Women they are more empty than before.
Not really - there is no need to lie. Pretty much down south ( Karnataka + Good portions of Andhra and Telangana) - General class is fine unless it is a weekend or holidays. It is not really a nightmare
@@EllisWR soth India only all bordering states beside kerala you will find karnataka, beside karnataka you will find Andhra and Telangana please check the Indian map all are part of south India and neighbouring states Bangalore Hyderabad and vizag are the capital cities

25:31 this is indian traditions...most of the men now do it but older men dont physically interact with women ...it shows respect. here in india before the digital age and western influence women were (in some parts they still are ) considered valueable , pure and respected... not anyother man who is not her family or husband can touch her...
Wow, I love this channel and how you guys travel !! You are like one of the very few travel bloggers who aren't total wankers! Keep being awesome, you two, we all will keep watching :)
Loved this interaction with the locals they were so friendly. Please be careful in southern states general class is alright but in north india it will be very very different.
Something different.its real India.Only few will be like both of you.Its dfficult but both have done it.Crossroot level India is something rare.Your efforts should be fruitful.Have a nice time in our country.
I am north Indian and when I have to travel by train for short routes i always travel by general ticket and I always find good people even some time they will become my friends and even after the train we are in contact with each other even some time they share their food and all thing,s.
Be careful sharing food. One of my relatives woke up in Calcutta on the platform wearing only his underwear after he was drugged with biscuits from a co-passenger. Everything he was carrying was stolen, down to the clothes he was wearing. People thought he was drunk/a beggar/schizophrenic. Luckily he was helped by a policeman and got back to Hyderabad safely.

Dear Ellis,Whenever you wish to travel in the GENERAL compartment of express trains in India,don't get confused.These 3or4 compartments are either in the last (before the luggage) or at the beginning(Behind the engine).Further you can see iron plates reflecting the words like SECOND CLASS,UNRESERVED on these compartments. Hope it helps.Wish you a very happy and comfortable journey.
the word "ruchi" is has the same meaning in both Tamil and Malayalam (taste). By the manner our guest spoke, our Tamil seller could not understand. If he has said "valara or romba" ruchi" (lot of taste) he would have understood from the context.
That's coconut trees not palm and afternoon its empty trains are normally the passanger train....second class is lowest class and sleeper class is also second class
North india is just veryyyy crowded .... So sleeper and general class is difficult. I would also advice against visiting UP and delhi, there are a lot of BEAUTIFUL palaces and architectural wonders there but its also very crowded with a lot of tourist traps. Your travel style will suit rajasthan more ...
Appreciate the honesty about the trash in the beach. Most of us share the same feeling. Our worst quality is that we keep our home and property beautiful, yet the moment we leave the immediate area close to our home, our civil sense seem to evaporate. The result is that every public area where people who are not locals end up gathering, ends up in a mess and all the shame, blame and expense that this cost are burdened on the locals. I feel it on a personal level as ever since a few eateries started near our residential road starts, the road we have to use everyday to walk to our homes have become an absolute mess, because of people who work in the area, food delivery associates and teenagers who don't live here. And then I get to see sanctimonious, completely clueless people here saying 'Why can't the locals clean it up?'
I understand what you are saying! We saw it in Kanyakumari outsiders coming to the town and just ruining it because they don't care and are leaving. I hope things change near you 🙏 thanks for commenting and have an amazing day
Taste = Ruchi with an r guys! that' why a few people didn't understand. as a local; i can confirm that small hotels do serve your fare. Though small fish fry is really good and a staple when its in supply. India is really beautiful. im from Kerala and right now live in Uttarakhand state. Its a northern state and proper cold in winter months. Safe Journeys!
Hearing news about targetted demolition of places of religious minorities, deaths of civilians in police firing in the state you are currently staying in. This is something I can't imagine in a place like Kerala. How do you cope with it?
@@gmaxi360 tbh; i think it is driven by pride because in the latter part of January; a very special temple to all Hindus was inaugurated. Unfortunately; when you live with an empty feeling for a long time and then a strong emotion enters that space; there is scope to mis-utilize it and that's what happened here. There are all sorts of chaps who call themselves leaders and pray on these emotions while calling themselves 'Patriots' which is sad. As a Kerala local; we are maybe better exposed to different cultures from childhood; but this sort of thing can happen there as well.
Traveling in unreserved class in express trains is not bad in Tamilnadu and Kerala unless it's over crowded. It's a pure joy if it is a passenger train. People will mingle quickly with you. In AC coaches nobody will even smile.
@@mohamdarsath9327 Why do you think she have too? they are our guest so she just wants to inform them.. Greetings and sweet talks is not really a part of our culture, we mostly talk business straight away.. it might sound rude to westerners but it doesn't mean any disrespect..
most of the indians are suffering from inferiority complex and needs approval from some random white people for their day to day activities.u can see the number of movie reaction channels in youtube where some random white people are commenting about indian movies and some indian people are kinda begg* for their reactions in their channels.
Traveling in general class is fun anywhere in India but but but dont even think of travelling in general class if you are in the states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar or any train that passes through these states. This is not a request but a warning 😂
@@arthanariganeshganesh9023 Because I don't want any foreign tourists to get harassed. Everyone is aware of the situation of general classes in these states. Even Indians from other states try to avoid boarding general class in these states. It's too bad.
Kerala is GOD's OWN COUNTRY. Being a north Indian, Id suggest you to stay there longer and explore the state thoroughly. Kerala, Rajasthan, North east states and Kashmir and Ladhakh you must visit. Dont visit Mumbai, delhi etc.
@@EllisWR Just one suggestion: try showing a photo of the food you're eating on your thumbnail to get more engagement. Even though you are not a food vlogger, yeah, it'd help you a lot. Food vloggers get more engagement than real vloggers like you. Sad, but reality.
You are the first foreigner I've seen who immediately picks up the local accent and pronunciation properly... Damn, how could you do this so easily, man?
Don't u have money 💲 to travel in luxurious train in india for example vande Bharat train, vande Bharat sleeper train, namo bharat train, maharaja express train and many more I don't understand why u show only negetive mentelity if u really respect india so show beautiful luxurious trains also otherwise don't need to come india go back to your country earn money 💲 then come 😑
You should try North Indian trains, you just tried unreserved class in Kerala which is equivalent to reserved class in North Indian trains. And if you really try unreserved ones from North India, you get the real goosebumps 😂 you'll be on air
North is getting far more change come out from 2014 take a bus and come to 2024 and try to travel outside your panjayath. Stop defaming your own nation such an racist
@@EllisWR To be fair, we in South India and North India are both products of our environment. Its harsher in North India and people's behavior are a reflection of that. They might not be as soft spoken, gentle and more concious of other's space as people in South, but they are equally warm people.
Kerala will be the highlight of your trip. Rural Kerala is beautiful and quite developed by Indian standards. Kerala folks are some of the friendliest in South Asia. They'll take care of you.
God bless Antony - my eyes filled up with tears when he said goodbye!! What a warm kind man !! He sensed how genuine you guys were and wanted to help you. He was right! And he wasn't after money, just wanted to help. Gave me hope in humanity !!
I read that as cultural - he wanted to respect Ellis by not touching 'his wife.' Antony is an old guy, from a traditional society in a different generation. It's just what he knows. I don't blame him and I'm a woman.@@gregg1152
Nice video, but title a little rude ("lowest class"). And the host falls into the typical cliche habit of pointing out things like toilet, crowds, etc. People like that give India based name as usual...try getting that hospitality in Britain or US...FORGET IT. YOU ARE BLESSED TO HAVE A CHANCE to see Kerala.
Genral is good ,Everything is fun and game until bunch of north india enter the train without ticket and take your seat and behave very loud as if they owned the train (even every common in reserved seat)😢😂😢😂😂😀,
Ellis, every second class journey along India is not the same you experienced in South India especially in Kerala, it's pretty much going dangerous in local compartments when you go through other states, just a reminder from your friend, happy journey both of you, love from Kerala ♥️🙏
Antony carries a lot of richness in his heart. At his age, such an educated person, he is being so humble, wanting to help a foreigner who recognized you guys understanding the fact that you are landing on His soil for the first time. He went everywhere to put on the right bus to make sure that you reach your destiny tension free. He dint ask for any penny for his service. He dint invade your privacy. But He made sure that you guys received a proper guidance according to Your plans. He even paid for your tickets along with his to the bus conductor. South is where good hearted people live.
General class Kerala not same as Bihar & U.P. & dangerous too. Infact most of North India is bad in general class. Why anyone wants to travel like this ?. Watch your luggage & pickpockets. Kerala is most literate state & clean from Indian standard.
As a half Tamil half malayali, glad that you are going to God's own country Kerala. Do visit unexplored places in Idukki and wayanad districts which are dense hilly areas and Allepey and kochi which are full of backwaters and awesome beaches.
The fact is elis, even we Indians haven't travelled this places. India is so vast. I feel even north Indians, might be seeing this places for the first time through your videos. you are more Indian now than some of us 🇮🇳...
Kerala used to be the cleanest state in India. Since plastic use increased and people from other states started pouring in, the God's own country is no more clean. Also many have become careless. Sorry for this.
The way you had food on your first day at Kerala was just the right way to have, and the dishes served were quite common and nutritious. Glad you had a good experience, the train companions also were very good, especially the elderly person who helped you all the way to the right bus
They are inclined towards showing bad sides more. Some foreigners are obsessed with that. I know few acquaintances like that. These ppl are not that bad, though, as they need indian audiences as well. But there are such ppl.
Our experience on the trains down south has been nothing but fantastic 🇮🇳
We only stayed in Kerala for a few days, after a month in India we were knackered and needed to chill out.
Where should we visit on a future trip? In Kerala? In India?
Should we visit Sri Lanka??

King Antonys are the souls of south India❤
They are souls of India
Kerala is the one of the best state to visit
You are the first foreigner I've seen who immediately picks up the local accent and pronunciation properly... Damn, how could you do this so easily, man?
He is a very open person, that's why. He pays close attention to people, listens closely, & gives everybody respect. One reason I love this channel.
Yep True
I listen and try imitate! To earn locals respect a simple hello and thankyou is like the best first move!
Don't u have money 💲 to travel in luxurious train in india for example vande Bharat train, vande Bharat sleeper train, namo bharat train, maharaja express train and many more I don't understand why u show only negetive mentelity if u really respect india so show beautiful luxurious trains also otherwise don't need to come india go back to your country earn money 💲 then come 😑
@EllisWR❤ true
Antony is an absolute legenddd 🔥🔥🔥
gentle soul..
Hero we all need
A gem
Such more people needed for India.
Agreed!
13:53 tasty in Malayalam Ruchi, you are pronouncing uchi, uchi means ferts(a fart)..so pronunciation is quite importante..
Oh gosh ahah cheers
You should try North Indian trains, you just tried unreserved class in Kerala which is equivalent to reserved class in North Indian trains. And if you really try unreserved ones from North India, you get the real goosebumps 😂 you'll be on air
Lol they will never take such risk🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sounds miserable we don't wanna waste our energy on that ahah
North is getting far more change come out from 2014 take a bus and come to 2024 and try to travel outside your panjayath. Stop defaming your own nation such an racist
@@bk2873 My friend in all respect Northern India is a lot different than the south. We like it down there people are respectful and peaceful
@@EllisWR To be fair, we in South India and North India are both products of our environment. Its harsher in North India and people's behavior are a reflection of that. They might not be as soft spoken, gentle and more concious of other's space as people in South, but they are equally warm people.
Kerala will be the highlight of your trip. Rural Kerala is beautiful and quite developed by Indian standards. Kerala folks are some of the friendliest in South Asia. They'll take care of you.
Ofcourse people will be friendly to white tourists..
My mom is the biggest fan of your channel, she used to say you guys are more genuine in exploring India
Your mum is a legend!!
@@EllisWR if you have time try to visit " thrissur" it's the traditional captial of kerala
26:26 The temple are showing that world"s richest temple called Sree Padmanabha Swami Temple Trivandrum.
God bless Antony - my eyes filled up with tears when he said goodbye!! What a warm kind man !! He sensed how genuine you guys were and wanted to help you. He was right! And he wasn't after money, just wanted to help. Gave me hope in humanity !!
He made our week absolute heart of gold 🙏 People like Anthony give us hope, let's all be like him
But Leash had her hand out to shake and he ghosted her but shook Ellis’s hand
I read that as cultural - he wanted to respect Ellis by not touching 'his wife.' Antony is an old guy, from a traditional society in a different generation. It's just what he knows. I don't blame him and I'm a woman.@@gregg1152
@@gregg1152when in India, opposite gender not Handshaking , mostly handshaking between same gender, younger gender no limits
@@gregg1152but he definitely did nmaskaran which is our way of greeting
Welcome to Kerala. Namaskaram ❤🙏
Kerala translates to Land of Coconut. So, you can find coconut in almost all dishes here
Kerala And Tamilnadu are Like BROTHERS ❤ , We Really hope you get much hospitality there as well
Tamil brother..❤
Always fighting also like brothers 😂
Nice video, but title a little rude ("lowest class"). And the host falls into the typical cliche habit of pointing out things like toilet, crowds, etc. People like that give India based name as usual...try getting that hospitality in Britain or US...FORGET IT. YOU ARE BLESSED TO HAVE A CHANCE to see Kerala.
this country is amazing bcz there space for rich, middle class & poor......describes the mercy of a great nation........love from usa
Welcome brother love from kerala 🇮🇳
Well said brother!
Genral is good ,Everything is fun and game until bunch of north india enter the train without ticket and take your seat and behave very loud as if they owned the train (even every common in reserved seat)😢😂😢😂😂😀,
Can't stand that, that's why we love the south, everybody is so respectful and good people
Ellis, every second class journey along India is not the same you experienced in South India especially in Kerala, it's pretty much going dangerous in local compartments when you go through other states, just a reminder from your friend, happy journey both of you, love from Kerala ♥️🙏
Dangerous is right. Especially if you are white and a woman.
Antony carries a lot of richness in his heart. At his age, such an educated person, he is being so humble, wanting to help a foreigner who recognized you guys understanding the fact that you are landing on His soil for the first time. He went everywhere to put on the right bus to make sure that you reach your destiny tension free. He dint ask for any penny for his service. He dint invade your privacy. But He made sure that you guys received a proper guidance according to Your plans. He even paid for your tickets along with his to the bus conductor. South is where good hearted people live.
He's what the world needs ❤️🙏
East or west .. Uncle Anthony is the best...🎉
25:33 he did Namaste to the lady and shook hands with the gentleman! What a a nice man!
Shaking hands with women is not bad in south india!!! This is not included in our culture, it's just their choice !!!
General class Kerala not same as Bihar & U.P. & dangerous too. Infact most of North India is bad in general class. Why anyone wants to travel like this ?. Watch your luggage & pickpockets. Kerala is most literate state & clean from Indian standard.
Bye Bye ellis from Tamilandu, enjoy kerala use malayalam languagemwords instead of Tamilwords like nanri for thank you !
As a half Tamil half malayali, glad that you are going to God's own country Kerala. Do visit unexplored places in Idukki and wayanad districts which are dense hilly areas and Allepey and kochi which are full of backwaters and awesome beaches.
Really Idukki and wayanad are unexplored??
@@pieceofcrap7167yes its not visited mostly because there is not much advertisement like kochi or Alapuzha
Jeneral is safe until northern panparags entered the chat 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
The fact is elis, even we Indians haven't travelled this places. India is so vast. I feel even north Indians, might be seeing this places for the first time through your videos. you are more Indian now than some of us 🇮🇳...
You were in Sri Lanka beautiful island Nation in Indian ocean
Visiting soon
Welcome to Trivandrum Dears.. Hope you have a great time here..🎉
Kerala used to be the cleanest state in India. Since plastic use increased and people from other states started pouring in, the God's own country is no more clean. Also many have become careless. Sorry for this.
Shame!
Must visit, Thekkadi (idukki district)
Alappuzha Backwaters (Alappuzha District)
Varkala (kollam)
Wayanad
Wagamon (kottayam)
Fort kochi 👀
Welcome to gods own country kerala❤
That girl at the railway counter spoke very fluent English
She was lovely
Welcome. Kerala State Very Lovey State. Thanks For Very Nice Video.
This is where u can experience the life of people and know the culture. Great work legends..🎉🎉🎉
You guys were lucky to have a peaceful journey in the general compartment. Thoroughly enjoyed watching your vlog, as always. 👍👍👍
The way you had food on your first day at Kerala was just the right way to have, and the dishes served were quite common and nutritious. Glad you had a good experience, the train companions also were very good, especially the elderly person who helped you all the way to the right bus
Was a lovely day
The world needs more Anthony's. 🙏🏻😊😊
Hero he is
love this channel for honesty. this is the proper way.
very authentic channel that's why I love it too
They are inclined towards showing bad sides more. Some foreigners are obsessed with that. I know few acquaintances like that. These ppl are not that bad, though, as they need indian audiences as well. But there are such ppl.
Eat unni appam , fish, banana chips in kerala
My eyes are drowning in tears watching Antony sir guiding you guys to the correct place. Such a great person. He earned my respect. 🙏
He is a legend 🙏
26:29 temple you've seen in trivandrum is the world's richest temple.
