After a few days of beach life in Varkala, we flew back up to Mumbai in anticipation of our flight out. We stayed a single night in Colaba, the tourist area in the southern part of the city.
The irony of Colaba is that it is probably the richest part of Mumbai, yet the streets are home to some of the city’s poorest residents. As tourists bed down in expensive hotel rooms above, the untouchables of India make their beds anywhere they can find a place where they won’t be disturbed.
