Home at Hampi
I’m still in awe of the fact that I actually did it! I went to Hampi, survived and came back. It still has to register in my head that I actually did it. And it’s been a couple of days now. It all started with Mum. She wanted to go to Hampi and inspired me to add the place to my bucket list. So when scrolling through my FB feed, I saw Appooppanthadi offering the trip at only Rs. 3300 I grabbed the offer for me and bro. But I hadn’t read the fine line – it was for women only. Slight disappointment as it was supposed to be a birthday trip for bro. But O well. I was going! So on 11 th August 2017, I flew to Bangalore from Kochi. I whiled away some time at the Café Coffee Day, with some pending work on my laptop. Then I caught a prepaid taxi to Bangalore Station (SBC). Be warned – the price will kill u (Rs. 1500). I reached the station after 2 ½ hours in traffic. I still had ample time before Hampi Express arrived. So I waited in the Ladies’ Waiting Room. Dinner was at the only rest...
