My name is Teresa Isabel Neema Veliyath, in short you can call me Neema. I’m from a catholic family from Vypeen, Cochin and a Graduate in Science. In 1996 while I was doing my Post Graduation I got married to Capt. Francis Veliyath. He was Captain in Merchant Ships so I too accompanied him in sailing . Sailing was indeed great , for I was able to know about different countries, climates & cultures. After 10Years of Sailing around the Globe, I have stopped sailing as our daughter Olivia started going to school . I am well versed with English, Hindi, Tamil and Malayalam.
I have settled in my, 1930 built, ancestral family home with my husband , daughter and parents. It is in this Bungalow that I was born and brought up .
My hobbies are reading, painting and cooking. I am very found of making friends so I have taken up this venture to make friends with people from different parts of the world in order to share the culture and tradition of Kerala with them.
The Bungalow, the beautiful heritage home build by my Great Grand Father, is an ideal home for someone who want to experience the rustic charm, culture , cuisine & culinary art of Kerala.
