hi mel! great blog and nice to know you live in kerala. sometimes i feel thats the only way this state will change- bringing outside culture to the state for the people to see, learn and change. i was wondering if you would like to author on specific issues at a collaborative blog called save kerala. if so leave a comment at savekerala.blogspot.com the idea of the blog is to highlight specific issues so that more people are aware of the problem and which could in turn, hopefully, make people think of solutions or changing.
