Cow playing football

Cardamom County is located at the junction of Kumily and Thekkady and for me it is not quite clear yet where one starts and the other stops. Walking around Kumily in the early morning is a privileged moment to witness daily wonders.

A lady leading cattle to the field, her cows pretending to be all wild and independent while the shepherd dogs were staying in the sun.

Ladies learning to drive a scooter – helmets do seem to be compulsory for drivers in that part of the state.

Cows crossing a football field.

It’s these little moments that make you feel you are not traveling through a place but rather settling in, starting to blend in the landscape, and what a fantastic landscape.
