It is a fine thing to sleep in the hills on hot summer's nights. Stars, moonlight a breath of breeze to deter the midges, swifts at dusk then possibly nightjars later. A mattress of soft, dry grass and springy heather. And a view to make you smile when the sun wakes you up. #yorkshire #blog #goniceplacesdogoodthings #neverstopexploring

The river Kaveri is one of the 5 great holy rivers of India, revered by pilgrims for centuries. From its source amongst the coffee and cardamon plantations in the cool hills of the Western Ghats, the river flows 500 miles across southern India towards the hot plains of Tamil Nadu and the Bay of Bengal.
