My Honest Travel Experience in COORG | Hitchhiking in India?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 авг 2024
- Join me as I try to navigate my way around South India, but end up failing miserably. From taking the Nilgiri Express towards Ooty, to hitchhiking our way around Coorg, exploring its famous Abbey Falls and attempting to trek to Tadiyandamol Peak… All sounds great, but as you’ll see, sometimes, things just end up not exactly going according to plan. Luckily, even when everything seems to go wrong, there's always something beautiful waiting to be discovered!
What you'll see:
*The Ooty Toy Train Adventure: Witness the beauty and... nausea-inducing slowness of this iconic train ride.
*Hitchhiking Mishaps in Coorg: Learn valuable lessons (and laugh along) as our attempts at off-the-beaten-path travel take some funny detours.
*Attempting theTadiyandamol Trek: Discover how a planned hike turned into a multi-bus journey and a reminder that sometimes, flexibility is key.
*The ultimate comfort of a perfect cup of Coorg coffee ☕
This travel vlog is a good reminder that travel isn't always about following a perfect itinerary ✌️

India is not for all....but beauty lies in hidden and unexpected areas...hope you find that....happy journey ❤❤❤
As an Indian girl, i will never go hitchhiking. Its not safe.
Please don't expose yourself to danger. In an unknown place safety comes before fun.
True
I wish you could visit Sikkim and Meghalaya, two beautiful states in India. They have snow-capped mountains, picturesque valleys, rainforests, big waterfalls, beautiful small mountain towns, and amazing wildlife. Also, I hope you can visit Ladakh, Spiti Valley, and Pahalgam.
Please don't ask random lifts in Bihar, Chattisgarh or Punjab for your own safety.
Chhattisgarh is safe state
@@SandeepAcademy0301 there are some areas
Punjab is a safe state bro
it is hot hot summer. this is the best time to explore the mountains Indian Himalayas most beautiful part of India-Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Sikkim. Ladakh is other worldly place most beautiful in India and one of the most beautiful in the world.
you have already seen beauty of Ladakh in occupied gilgit baltistan now please exlore more of Ladakh.

Your videos are so peaceful and calming. Cinematography is so good
In all the trekk, calling "We made it... Dingbouche" was the loveliest to hear...cute...😀😄❤
Hey, this happened to us as well. We had planed our trek to Tadiyandamool during the month of March from our office two years ago. We stayed at a nearby place. next day to our disappointment. The trek was closed due to forest fire. We later came to know that most of the trek is closed during peak summers. A lesson the hard way. Oct to Jan is the ideal time to trek. I'm planning to visit there again. It's actually a beautiful trek, post monsoon with the lush green peaks.
Ahhh yeah, I think we missed out! Hope to be able to do it some other time too, I’ve heard great things 🙌
Try during monsoon time, the trek will be a great experience.
Really enjoyed this! As an avid hitchhiker, I can understand the struggle!
Do a visit to the spiti valley …..its a palace where blogger and mountain trekker finds heaven
It's heaven
Heaven 😂😂😂
Great vlog. It was hectic & chaotic for sure.
Hoping to see u back in Pakistan soon. Summer is about to start here.
That's so disappointing! As a hiker myself, I understand how it feels to miss one! Tadiandamol is a lovely peak to hike, but unfortunately the hikes are closed in many parts of the Western Ghats right now. I hope you get to do some or the other hike in the region in the future.

Thank you, that’s very kind of you 🫶✨🙌
The thing is people’ doesn’t know the concept if hitch hiking much and they don’t expect it especially from a foreigner. Most probably thought you were waving for a taxi.
If you feel nauseous especially when you're in a moving vehicle, close your eyes and go to sleep. You should have just put your heads on the backpacks in your lap and taken a nap. I don't know how to explain it, but there's a connection between nausea and the act of looking at motion ( when you see things pass by outside the window) while you're in motion.
Avoid hitchhiking in central and eastern parts of india for your own safety guys. I would advise to even avoid these states and stick to south india. Have a safe journey.
Wow! another charming and well directed video from FLORA GONNING! ♥ The best thing about her videos is that I don't have to spend much time looking at the countries she visits. Instead, I can look at FLORA GONNING in almost every shot! The world is yours! FLORA, THANK YOU FOR YOUR CHARMING, TASTEFUL VIDEOS!🙏 You have so much to offer the world and you contribute so much to the world BY SHOWING VIDEOS OF YOU TALKING AND WALKING AROUND! You are so humble and you provide us with so much useful information about how to travel. And the best part is that I can look at you and hear YOUR voice at all times! Thank you! I have learned so much about India and Pakistan! ♥🙏🙏🙏
It is the journey that is important not the destination. ❤ your stories!
Exactly 😊 thank you for watching!
Since you were at Kushalnagar, it would have been great to visit the monastery. It would have changed your experience and you would have ended up liking the wrong path taken. About hitchhiking, can't say much. Personally I am scared to give someone a lift. :)
I love your energy, when you are faced with something not good, you always smile and then find positivity in every situation. I really enjoyed this journey, I feel calm and release stress. I wish the best for you and have a lot of new experiences ❤
Your voice and accent is similar to Ivana and Noraly aka Itchy Boots. Ivana is a dutch vlogger who after traveling India fell in love with the country and has settled here in Bengaluru aka Bangalore since. Anyways, I really hope you can visit Sikkim especially North and East Sikkim, Meghalaya for its amazing waterfalls and living root bridges built by the locals and my favourite Arunachal Pradesh especially Tawang.
Hitchhiking is possible in india but for short distances & also you have to be very careful to get in a vehicle with a strangers. Not everyone is giving you a ride out of there generosity. Be careful & i hope you have a wonderful time in India ❤
Madam, Hitchhiking in India would be a little difficult and adventurous since it is done only when we don't have any other options left to continue the journey even by the locals, so as foreigners I don't know how you would be treated if you are continuously hitchiking.
In my opinion the best way to do travel in India and seeing all the beauty through the travel is to take buses one place to another and Auto rickshaws if its not there, but whenever doing this, talk with a local who knows English to confirm the route and the expense, or else it is easy to get fooled, it's common even for people from other states of the country. Don't take that seriously, people of all kind are here, many many good hearted people are there in all parts of India, find them talk them in English, understand the region and then continue travel to avoid any inconveniences.
Good luck

Not sure what your travel plans are, but a lot of treks are closed during the summer (in the south at least) to prevent people dying from sudden forest fires. We're in the middle of a bad heatwave rn.
Y'all should have come around to Coorg or even the western ghats around june-july, the monsoon season....the forests come alive! You'd experience nature like never before.
You should hike in Ladakh. That's your type of place and completely other worldly beauty!
Please Visit Rishikesh and Dharmashala
Hey, Happy to watch your vlogs. Especially this one, because Im from Somwarpet and you should have waited some more time to visit Somwarpet. Anyway, happy travelling
India is a very huge and diverse country in the world 🌏
28 state + 8 union territory = India (36) 🇮🇳
And many more indian island like Andaman Nikobar, Lakhyadeep etc..🙏🙏
For Hiking go to Maharashtra Konkan side , lots of forts, waterfalls and treks
Coorg is amazing...but summer is not the ideal time to visit
Best time will be just after the monsoons or during monsoon if you are ok to get stuck inside at times due to heavy rain
Here are some bucketlist destinations to explore in coorg-(1) waterfalls- irrupu, chelavara, mallalli (2) hiking/trekking- tadiyandamol, mandalapatti, kabbe, nishani motte, kopatty, Kotte betta, brahmagiri (3) nature and wildlfe- nagarahole national park, pushpagiri wildlife sanctuary, dubare elephant camp, raja seat, white river rafting, honamanna kere lake (4) historical heritage- nalkad palace, gadige tomb, Madikeri fort.
who does Hitchhicking in developing coutries?
If you're hitchhiking, you already have a higher threshold for inconveniences than most travelers - Then you should consider renting a motorbike (per person) to get around small to medium distances. Land in a city, leave big bags with someone trustworthy, then pack light lugguage for 2-3 days trip on motorbikes in the surrounding region, then back to the city to fly out to another section of the country.. Motorbiking has its troubles too, and it's not totally safe, but I'd rate it better than hitchhiking!
Beautiful realistic footage ❤
Sadly, There is no Hitch Hiking Culture in India.
Nice very use full
It looks like you guys love trekking, so try north and north-east, although I feel Jan and Feb are the most thrilling times to be in the north. So many awesome treks are there, but be careful you may fall in love 😅
summer time people won't hike in karnataka, best time to go hike is Manson season or winter, in summer most of the hike place will be closed
Beautifully composed video
Hitchhiking in India IS REALLY UNCOMMON. WE USE PAID CARS OR OWN CARS.
simply awesome! 😍
🇮🇳🎄🏝️🧙 Welcome To India Beautiful Video ❣️💖🎄🏝️🧙👍💐
you are so lucky because india has a darkerside
which country doesn't?
Hellya India has a dark side. Especially when you have 1.4 billion + people in this country. Each state is like a country of its own.
there are so many places that are hidden
beautiful presentation ma'am liked it.
Awsome Keep it up,, use some Drone Footage's
Beautiful video, things going wrong usually makes like more beautiful, but regardless best wishes
July is the best months to visit cooorg 😊
Beautiful editing...... please comes to our North east part of India 😊
I dont know if I should recommend himalaya to you.
How do you plan your trip like it's so amazing 😊
Nice one
U ppl are amazing doing this difficult stuff but Hitchhiking is not a common thing to do in India so its so hard.
Are you guys going to visit north India ?
I love trains - Sheldon Lee Cooper
Visit leh - laddakh
Carry a lemon with you whenever you feel nauseous, sniff it. You feel better.
you look like a blonde version my sister , she has same eyes and black hair , i am from himachal pradesh in north , enjoy journey
I might have to take offence for specifically mentioning Coorg in the video thumbnail!
Because if you observe through google maps & in your video at 12:30 time you stand on the route going towards Kushalnagar & ask people to take you to somwarpet then obviously people will take you to the nearest bus stand which is in Kushalnagar or will tell you to go back to madikeri & hitchhike along the correct direct route towards somwarpet!
So, please don’t spoil the land’s name by mentioning it on your thumbnail when it’s your mistake to not check on google map whether you are hitch hiking in the right route or not, coz here in India we have multiple routes to 99% of the destinations & ppl are 99.9% kind enough to help you.
BTW I am a native of Coorg hence being a bit emotional.
Anyways a good video but seems like you don’t want to rely google maps for routes when you hitch hike I dono why?!
Cheers
Welcome to Kodagu (coorg )
My sister studies there in coorg medical college. Can't get enough of it ! ❤

Hey U are in India now.U should visit northern states like HP, Punjab but no need to go towards easter side of the country where there is no safe place for women.U can visit occupied Kashmir or Occupied Ladakh
it looks like lack f research and planning you cant blame india for that backpackers travel like that and face issues like that
From this Indian series I can see that India is much better and beautiful than bankrupt Pakistan. I don't understand why your fav country is Pakistan. 😂
half of her so called Pakistan videos are from gilgit baltistan which is pakistan occupied Kashmir india's land
Why are you getting jealous....

Boring. Where has gone your greater Pakistan vibe ???
After visiting Kashmir and Ladakh and Paunjab as well as Rajasthan u will find the vibe.Will get more if visit Kashmir
take care of yourself dont go to hindu temples or in rural areas alone and especially avoid jharkhand
Hey bot Don't spread misinformation about Hindu temple and jharkhand state with yours fake information.
I also suggest them no to visit Mosques and muslim areas it's very dangerous
