Touristic tips from volunteers






If you are doing a voluntary service in India you absolutely should get some time for travelling as well. In the following, I am going to list out my personal Highlights which I can demand without any reservation:

One of the must-see places is surely Mysore. The good thing about Mysore is that it is not that far away from Bangalore and you can visit all the touristic attractions within one or two days like the Mysore Palace, the City Market or Nandi-Hills.

If you are interested in historical places and old Temples you have to visit the place called Hampi. In a totally relaxed atmosphere you can enjoy your Lassi on top of a rooftop restaurant and listen to chilled reggae music. If you want to, you can explore this fascinating place by walking but I advise you to rent a bicycle especially because some of the places are a little far away from the Centre!

For an amazing beach Holiday, I recommend you the “Palolem Beach” in Goa or “Varkala Beach” in Kerala! Both of them are looking like a Paradise on Earth. White sand, clear blue sea and palm-fringed! Another nice thing about the two places is that you meet a lot of other travelers, you can enjoy a cold beer and you can wear whatever you what without getting any view from a rubbernecker!
