Unsafe experience as solo female traveller in HostelEXP, Varkala



Long post ahead, but if you could please spare 5 mins as it could save you or your closed ones from an unsafe environment.

I had a really bad and scary experience in one of the very famous hostel of Varkala. HOSTEL EXP situated near the north cliff is not safe for women travellers let alone solo women travellers. The owner and manager's anmes are ABHI & GOODWIN.
Dont get influenced by their consistent 4.4 star rating with ovwr 500+ reviews, this is what influenced me too but the biggest ignorance or mistake on my part was not reading their lowest rated reviews, and I was shocked when i read those finally. I was harrassed by the owner and manager and 1 of their friends along with other girls.
So on the night of checkin, i.e. friday night few of the hostellers were planning to go to a party at SANDAY BEACH cafe (please stay away from that place as well), I had no intentions of going so I just refused but then everyone in that hostel planned to go to that 'techno night' and I didnt wanna stay alone in the hostel so I just agreed. There the hostel's owner and manager started getting really drunk and tried to get close to the other girls and one of their friends tried getting close to me, by close I mean, touching them again and again and taking their hands to dance and the girls were really uncomfortable. So i had to intervene like 4 5 times to part them away, and there was other girl who was trying to part them as well, but ig i was more proactive which pissed them off lol. so at one point they werent leaving us alone even after tryjng multiple times to get rid of them so we just came out, then those 2 guys came outside upto me, and one of them goes "AM I DISTURBING YOU?" i was obviously confused and then the other guy goes onto say "STOP INFLUENCING OTHERS". I was like wtf bro, I questioned him like wdym by that, and he said we were not talking to you inside then why are you trying to influence others. I told him you guys were making every girl uncomfortable and you are drunk right now, we'll talk tomorrow. He goes on to ask me whom are we disturbing, there was a girl beside me whom he was also trying to get creepily close to so i just said that her, you made her uncomfortable which she agreed too, and ig they were not expecting that so then the other guy started verbally attacking me along with some weird ass underground gang type shit actions, saying "I know where you came from" and "You think you're smart" and what not, i was also arguing even though i was shit scared (mind you this was my first time travelling alone and it was night time). I just didnt know how to respond so I did wtv I felt like and he angrily was kinda coming close to me so some people just pushed him away from me and then he goes on to say, "Stay the night and check out tomorrow" and that was the final nail in the coffin and I lost it, I was on the verge of crying lol and didnt know what to do because I didnt wanna stay at that place a single more second and I was scared for my luggage too. Thanks to the other travellers who helped me out in finding another stay in the middle of the night, even though tried convincing me to stay the night because everything was closed but i was persistent. thankfully we got a hotel and I stayed there for the rest of my trip. I mean I really felt bad because one of my reasons to travel solo and stay at the hostel was to socialize and meet new people but alas because of them I couldnt do that. Everything was fun and chill until they started drinking, we had a cooking night where we all cooked and had dinner but sadly that got overshadowed.

Also, if you guys dont believe me please check out the lowest rated reviews of HOSTEL EXP on google and you'll see multiple such reviews of them getting intoxicated and then harassing women, and those fuckers have the audacity to reply to those reviews and in return blame those poor tourists who had to go through all this. THEY DONT OWN UP TO THEIR ACTIONS and we cant even report this to someone higher because

they are the owner and manager themselves.

Girls and Guys, please be careful when you book a stay and I cannot stress this enough, please check the LOWEST RATED reviews as well along with RECENT REVIEWS. dont do the same mistake as i did.

Also i didnt even focus on one of the other hostellers being creepy tooand trying to get close to me. but how do you compare bad with bad you know. I hate how i just got harassed for stopping other girls from being harassed. but i dont regret doing that and i wanna point how only girls were saving each other from them and no man near us tried to stop them and help us out!!


TLDR : HostelEXP, Varkala manager and owner ABHI & GOODWIN get drunk and harass women hostellers, they tried getting close to women including me and when i stood up to their bs they verbally harassed me.


Please let your close ones know because this hostel is quite popular among travellers and i really want this to reach everyone whos planning a trip to varkala.

Just watched Homebound — counting my blessings and hoping it opens more minds

I’m thankful that in my 25 years of life, as a Muslim, I’ve never once been called out or made to feel different because of my religion. I grew up studying in all kinds of environments —till 10th in a Catholic school, higher secondary in a temple-run government school, and college in a Muslim management college. My friend circle is the same way: around 70% of my friends are from other religions. My closest friends are Hindus and Christians.

In Kerala, whenever an incident based on religious hate happens, people collectively condemn it. I genuinely feel that education and maybe even the influence of communism here play a role. Even if someone holds certain negative thoughts, they don’t express it openly or act on it, because they know it’s hurtful and socially unacceptable.

I’ve also noticed the huge migration of workers from North India to Kerala over the years. My barber, the restaurants I visit — everywhere you can see their presence. I worked closely with many of them when I was doing part-time jobs. Some owners exploit them unfortunately. The minimum daily wage here is around ₹1000 for 8 hours, but some places pay only ₹500–700 with overtime free stay. Still, most of them seem more comfortable here and can switch jobs once they settle.

I’m really counting my blessings. Not everyone in North India is hateful. I myself have worked under extremely good-hearted people who treated me very well.

I just watched Homebound, and I really hope this movie helps change people’s minds and opens up more empathy and understanding.

STOP PAYING MONEY TO COMPANIES FOR “INTERNSHIPS” – It’s the biggest scam running in Indian tech right now

If a company is asking you to pay ₹20k–₹1.5 lakh for a 3–6 month “internship” → you are not an intern.
You are their customer. Full stop.

This whole “paid internship” trend (especially in Kerala, Bangalore, Hyderabad) is nothing but a shameless cash grab disguised as career help.

What actually happens in 95 % of these programs:
❌ You pay heavy fees upfront
❌ They give you recycled college-level projects or “TODO app in React”
❌ You sit on the bench for months doing nothing useful
❌ Zero code reviews, zero client interaction, zero production exposure
❌ You get a fancy certificate that HRs laugh at and throw in the bin
❌ You walk out poorer and with the exact same resume

A real internship (even unpaid) looks like this:
✓ Company pays you stipend (or at least doesn’t charge you)
✓ You work on actual features/tasks that ship to production
✓ You attend stand-ups, use Jira/Git, get code reviewed
✓ Seniors actually mentor you instead of ghosting

If they’re taking money from you, they have zero incentive to teach you anything — you’ve already paid!

Colleges and “academies” in Kochi, Trivandrum, Calicut etc. are the worst offenders right now. They sell fear: “No internship = no placement”, then sell you their own fake internship.

Don’t fall for it. Your desperation is their business model.

Drop your stories below:
→ Have you ever paid for an internship?
→ How much did you waste and what did you actually learn (probably nothing)?

Let’s expose these companies together so the next batch doesn’t get looted.
