KERALA YIYEEEE!!!!


All of us wait eagerly for one thing every year and that is the study tour. The very thought of study tours generates excitement in all the students especially when we get the opportunity to go to such exotic places. This year in January our entire department i.e. Department of Communication and Journalism of Mumbai University, Kalina campus decided to take us to Kerala also known as God’s own country. For all the students of MA PR it was something that we were desperately looking forward to. The idea of travelling in trains doesn’t really excite me but the journey turned out to be a fun experience and was that bad.

I realized that you need to have good company especially if you have to travel for almost 30 Hours which is a long time, but it didn’t feel that way because we literally had a blast and blew the roof. Study tours helps the students get to know students not only from their own class but the entire department and I guess that is the whole idea behind organizing study tours. All MA PR students of Mumbai University Kalina including other departments got the chance to get to know each other better. We got the chance to develop a rapport with our professors because this is the time when they are at their informal best. It’s a different feeling when they are in college compared to when they are outside the campus; during the tour I realized that the entire faculty was soo friendly and one amongst us.

Kerala is rightly known as God’s own country, the backwaters, the boart rides, the bird sanctuary you will find greenery everywhere, less pollution compared to other cities and the best part is people hardly honk, whereas in Mumbai people keep honking and knock your brains off, but there is something that vegetarians need to know that you cannot survive for long if you are one, there are very few options available and I remember my friend cribbing about the food every day and I felt sooo sorry for her poor thing! But all in all it was a trip of a life time and i am sure students of MA PR of Mumbai University, Kalina are looking forward for another trip next year and hope that it will be far more adventourous and rocking than the previous one.
