Kerala, India

If you are wondering where to take your family on your next big vacation, why not try Kerala, India? There are many exotic places to visit and the cost of activities there are very low. The state is geographically about the size of Maryland, and holds a population the size of California. From beautiful Hindu temples to palm trees that cover the land, you will find something of interest for everyone in the family. There are a lot of exotic animals to see and rich history to take in.

Kerala isn’t like most places in Asia. Women have been head of households and play an equal part next to the man in Kerala. The per-capita income of these residents is less than 300 dollars a year. The people of Kerala are hard-working and can be found in the rice fields and spreading coconut along the road to dry every day. This country, unlike the United States, wastes almost nothing. They may not make a lot of money, but Kerala is a very smart group of people. The government spends almost half their budget on health and education.

You can explore exotic beaches and have a relaxing vacation in Kerala. Visiting this third-world country and seeing how hard they work and what little money they bring home to their families will help you to appreciate the things you have and take for granted. This will be a trip that you and your family will want to take time and time again.
