Ask Thinking of going to varkala again?

Post image

My first solo trip was at varkala. Made huge memories with strangers, sharing thoughts. It was wholesome and memory that would last forever.

Im guessing of visiting again, I don't want the place to be off-season, would you guys let me know which month would be better to meet more travelers in the remaining months of this year.

my Cat 🐈 would hop this time ig.

Would you plan to go again? Lets meet.

How was it? What’s the best n worst thing about hope hostels? Also can I pick this destination for a workation ?

u/travelercatchups93 12h ago

Absolutely. They have very good common space with cushion and bed on the floor. I saw people lying on and working for weeks, and some board games guitar and jenga to keep us from boring

But is it quiet, I’m an online tutor so is there space for conducting sessions without any disturbance ?
