🌏Hi! We’re Ben and Haley. We sold everything to travel around the world. We left behind our very normal life to travel the world with only a backpack and on a budget. We left the US with no definite plans and decided to go wherever the next flight takes us. We've been on the road full-time since July 2022. Come with us as we explore this beautiful world. We'll be sharing the good and the bad, the wild and the mundane, and all of our best travel tips to help with your own adventures.

Note: We’ve linked a few items to share useful things we travel with. We only promote products/services that we genuinely love and all of these items are the exact things we currently have in our backpacks right now.

  • One of the worst time to visit Kerala. The heat crossed 41°C mark and the heat from the Ongoing General election also make your life upside-down.
  • On most platforms there are small displays which show the coach position of the coming train which you can refer to and move to the right place and it will stop right in front of you, future tip. Cheers and enjoy.
  • Amazing Kerala. Love from Northeast India....💚💚💚💚🌱🌱🌱🌴🌴🌴🌴

    Tip for your future Indian Rail journeys - Your ticket has your bogie/ coach # say like A1 etc. Then about 5 minutes before the train comes the small Electronic boards start flashing the positions of all the coaches on the next train arriving on that platform. One such board is on your left at timestamp 02:13 and 02:25 in this same video. You can notice coach #12 and #11 from the Engine of that train as you are walking. Other details in small font are not visible to me. First that board will flash the train number. Then it flashes the coach # Since diff trains have diff combinations of coaches etc it is important you check if the flashed train # matches with your train number. This gives you 5 minutes and helps you reach that section of the platform where your bogie/ coach # will come. That way you can reach that place even before your train reaches the platform. This will save you from the last minute rush AFTER the train arrives at the platform. Avoiding the rush avoids chances of falling over, too much tension in heightened chaos, and chances of pick-pockets robbing you. Hope this helps you and other foreign passengers on Indian Railways. One more way to know where your bogie/ coach will arrive is a bit old fashioned. I will just let you know for the sake of giving a complete answer. Way before the trains arrive on a platform you will find somewhere - typically just outside a small office of Indian Railways on that platform - an old fashioned blackboard . All the trains arriving on that platform in the next few hours are listed their with train number and each train's bogie/ coach from Engine to guard is mapped on that blackboard. So, you do not even have to wait till last few minutes. You can know it hours before the arrival time. Tricky things are that - the blackboard is hard to find if you are new to the station. Second, even if you know what is your bogie # from the Engine on your train you must know which direction your train is coming from - meaning which side is the Engine or else you will stand at the exact opposite end of the long platform. So be careful. The static position of the bogie/ coach from the Engine is marked on the platform. In your video please check the white board at timestamps 01:08 displaying coach #11 again on the upper corner on Haley's left. They are static numbers where the coach from the Engine will come. aT 02:04 another board is showing #12 so obviously these numbers are for train coming from opposite direction. Correct numbers for you will be on the backsides of the same board. - if the train is moving in the opposite direction the numbers will be ascending / descending different so it is a bit tricky as you are new to the system, country, and chaos 🙂🙏Welcome to India

  • @rahulzingade99
    Just a tip: The approximate stopping point of every bogie/ train car will be displayed in advance on digital signboards hanging from the roof of the platform. You may not find it in every station, but they are certainly there in bigger railway stations.
  • @Jay-ns2ts
    Please use apps like 'where is my train' or displays in station to know your Platform and Coach location. Have a happy Journey 🥰
