Kollan (So. Kerala) India - January 7th, 2007

Today is a relaxing day, and since is pretty warm outside, I am enjoying reading, writting and washing indoors. In the afternoon I went to the local beach, but it was totally packed by the locals (on Sunday that is mostly what happens). The waves in this beach are more dangerous, so nobody was in the water. No westerners here (they must be all in Varkala beach).
Tomorrow I am planning to visit the ashram of Matha Amrithanandamayi, one of India's very few female gurus. She is known as Amma (mother) and is also called "the hugging mother".
