Unreasonable at Sea day 58: Hello India

Arrival to Kochi, Kerala

We arrived in the morning, went through customs, then finally got off the ship in Kochi, Kerala, and head via bus to Start up Village, on the outskirts of Kochi, in Kerala. We arrived to Startup Village and got a huge welcome, with delicious lunch with delicious coconuts cut open to drink out of straws.

We each gave a pitch but it was really informal, unlike the Pecha Kucha we expected because the slides were hard to see. So it was relaxed and quite comfortable, and we talked about our companies to the rest of the group.

Then Carly led the Design Thinking session.

And we broke into workshop groups, and then there were talks that continued the following few hours. We met some really cool people at Startup Village and saw the entire space and the structure that Freeman built of modular elements.

Afterwards, we went to the after party at the Dream Hotel for the afterparty:

Afterwards, Jessie and I ate some cup – of – noodles and met Loosy Goosy, the new lifelong learner who is a practicing clown who arrived on board. She talked to us for quite a long time, but unfortunately I haven’t seen her since.
