Alleppey is a place located under the sea level.
Hello, dear Hive community!
Today I'm taking you to Alleppey, the district in Kerala, Sout India. Alleppey is famouse for it's house boats, fish and that is interestingly located below the sea level.
This time I will not take you to any houseboat or any luxurious hotel. One year ago, in 2018, maybe even some of you remember, in South India there was a massive flood. My friend Amal wants to take me to this climate change affected people and want to show me the stories of people still suffering from these consequences.
We started early in the morning with visiting the local fish market. Many of these fishermen helped other people in time of flood with their boats. Sadly, their good heart was not protecting them from the damage the flood has caused. When they came back, their houses were all destroyed. Still now in 2019, no money for support from the government or any other support systems reached to them. They are left without anything..
On the fish market, one of the fishermen invited us to his home. He shows us the damage the flood left behind. At first, when I approached the house, I couldn't see so much damage. Later, entering the house, I saw it - one full wall of the house was totally gone.
My friend, Bency and Amal and me, decided to donate some fisher nets and motors to their community where support of the government is failing to reach.
In the evening Amal invited me to the local Tori shop, where we enjoyed some local coconut wine, It was a very good evening with a lot of fun. Alleppey is a great place to visit, I would really recommend visiting and trying this local wine.
Since making movies and capturing moments is a big passion of mine, sharing them with a wider population which appreciate them, means even more to me. If you would like to support me, join me on my journeys and subscribe to my YT channel.
