I think Goa is over rated while Cochin is under rated. The green city with its coconut-fringed waterways was paradise. It was hard to escape the sea and the Chinese fishing nets that swish into the sea, not that I wanted to.

Do you believe you’re a curry buff?

I thought I was. I was sure I could eat any curry, no matter how hot and enjoy it. I did until I arrived in Cochin.
