Germany booooyeaaaaah. I pity all Brazil fans, is there a German word for schadenfreude?

Neymar and Thaigo Silva was not playing that's why Germany won

I know My Favorite team is not going in finals

My friend who is a die hard Brazil supporter went off line since late night. Hope the bugger has not hung himself It's a mourning day in Kolkata too.

Good actually. Very green.There were problems in the North (lack of veg restaurants )
Also had certain reservations with - Padmanabhaswamy Temple, management was too strict on religious profiling (I looked too Kashmiri/Muslim perhaps ). My idea of a good temple is one no one bothers you But that's just me perhaps
Otherwise all was well - great food, lots of greenery etc. But there is a lot of untrapped potential - there is too much red tape. Even tourism is not promoted properly. Many families we met had someone abroad, especially in North Kerala.

I grew up in North Kerala. Malappurram to be exact. One of the few Muslim majority areas in India =)

Your assessment is right. Especially about tourism. I think with proper marketing, and other camapigns, Kerala can easily attract 2-3 million extra foreigners as tourism

@SarthakGanguly how did you find the people?

Because us Kerlaites have a pretty low opinion of Keralites

I grew in a Muslim majority state

How did you find the people though?

Because I am sure a lot of keralites you talked to don't have a high opnion of Mallus

Also Keralite Muslims aren't that bad. Christians either

Saala yaha Haryana mein toh kuch bhi nahi hai tourists ke liye

the only reason Kerala gets tourists is because the state is very green.

Kerala doesn't do a good job of promotion of the state in the first place.
