The REAL sides of VARKALA (4K) | Exploring Raja Ravi Varma's Childhood Home

Discover the off the beaten path treasures of Varkala, a serene seaside town nestled in the Indian state of Kerala. Join us as we venture beyond the tourist hotspots and delve deep into the hidden secrets of this enchanting destination. From exploring secluded beaches and cultural sides to uncovering the lesser known palace and other hidden gems, our journey takes us to places rarely seen by the average traveler. This video is a must-watch for anyone looking to discover the true essence of this picturesque town.
- ABOUT US -
Hi! We are Pooja & Shravan, an illustrator-engineer duo from Bangalore brought together by the love of travel and adventure.
We have traveled together since the winter of 2016. On one such trip, we started documenting these travels on a humble phone camera. We soon realised that we really enjoy capturing these experiences. We are entirely self taught (students of the internet) and have learnt from binging on brilliant creators over the years.
In our videos you might find glimpses of places that are not spoken about enough. We always vouch for spots that are somewhat the underdogs. Our vlogs are sometimes vlog-ish and sometimes a documentation of the place as we see it. We hope that watching these videos will bring a little dose of joy to your day.
We love reading your comments and hearing your thoughts.
They motivate us and help us steer our creative path.
With love,
Pooja & Shravan

    I just watched your latest video about your trip to Kerala, and I am blown away by how well you captured the essence of Varkala. You have such a unique and refreshing perspective on travel, and your passion for exploring new places shines through in every frame of your video. I could feel the culture and heart of Varkala through your eyes, and it made me wish I had been there with you to experience it firsthand. Your style of travel is so cool and composed, and I love how you maintain a sense of calmness even in the most exciting moments. Your videos inspire me to see the world in a different way, and I can't wait to see where your travels take you next. If you ever have some free time, I would love to catch up and hear more about your experiences. Who knows, maybe you could even show me some more places through your lens! Congratulations on such an amazing video, and keep on exploring!

    Hope from 0.49 to 0.51 whether pooj or shravan took this frames intentionally. The way just It looks like in that frame was a man seems to be a Lilliput and the kid as a gaint. and the kid was amusing by seeing that lilliput., this is what I felt when i see that 😂😂😂. and I noticed the new logo of the channel at the bottom right of the video which is like a infinity. and that small arrow refers to travel may be😁😁 and coming to the video things I would like steal from you guys will be the way how you describe things perfectly and importantly i don't know how you put the words in a well aligned manner,that makes the viewer to feel the presence. and the dog is having the food shots! picture + music + words made this video great. still I'm getting amused about your vocabulary skills.😲😲😵 some vlogs may be vlog-ish 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 please say that you have plans to guruvayoor also. have a good day 😇😇😊

    Thank you so much for the comment Rekha. Your comments always make our day 😀😀 First off, thats a really thorough dissection we must say 😀 About the shot at 0.49. We don't remember who took it but only after you mentioned it we started seeing the whole liliput angle 😀. So that was, in a way, a fluke haha. The channel logo stands for the good and bad (yin-yang) and infinity and travel and the "&" in the pooja & Shravan..... So a bunch of different things hehehe. Unfortunately, we didn't go to Guruvayoor this time. But we promise a lot of temples and shrines in the next series. Teasers will start soon on our Instagram handle. 😀😀
