After two unforgettable weeks in the #Himalayas, it was time to leave the mountains behind. I returned to Pokhara for a night before heading to my next stop: #Bandipur. Bandipur is a small hilltop town in #Nepal that feels frozen in time. elprismadefer.com/en/que-hacer... #TravelBloggersCommunity

After finishing the #AnnapurnaCircuit, I wasn't ready to leave the #Himalaya yet. Instead, I continued straight to #AnnapurnaBaseCamp. Starting from Tatopani, it took me four days to reach the base camp, and every step was worth it. #nepal #hiking #traveladdicts elprismadefer.com/trekking-al-...

I had heard so many negative things about #Delhi before arriving that I honestly expected the worst. But the truth is I really liked it. Yes, some parts are chaotic, crowded and poor, but Delhi is also a massive city full of history #TravelBloggersCommunity #travel #traveladdicts #Travelblogshare

From #Kochi, I took a night bus to #Mysore Woke up in a completely different vibe—less tropical, more inland #India Mysore is where I saw my first proper Indian palace… and wow. The Mysore Palace is easily one of the most impressive in the country. #indiatourism #Karnataka

After a few days in the cool hills of #Munnar, I headed down to #Alleppey. The change was instant, from tea plantations and fresh mountain air to palm trees, canals, and heavy tropical humidity. Alleppey is famous for the #Kerala #backwaters, a huge network of canals and lagoons. #india

Last stop in #TamilNadu: #Tiruchirappalli. The city is famous for its massive hindu temple complexes, and I have to say, they’re truly impressive. It’s not a particularly beautiful city, but it felt like stepping into a different timeline. #india #hindu #southasia

After the chaos of #Chennai, I escaped to #Mahabalipuram in #TamilNadu. Completely different vibe. A small coastal town known for its rock-cut temples and intricate stone carvings. It’s not a big place, which actually makes it better, and the temples aren't as epic as in other places in #India
