Resmi Jaimon : Freelance Writer, Kochi - Kerala, Mumbai

Kochi, happens to be not just India's, but Asia's first stopver destination for Volvo Ocean Race. My husband and I visited the race village construction site at Willingdon Island, Kochi on October 12, 2008. The work is in progress and getting ready to welcome the team and a large number of tourists, estimated to arrive at Kochi during the event from December 3-13, 2008. I have images of the ongoing construction site and more. Email me for more information about the different story angles I can work on - for both pre and post event news / features.

I am partly excited! I live and work in Kochi (Kerala, India), the first Indian stopover destination for Volvo Ocean Race. I already have a couple of assignments to work on and have access to the event. Seeking more assignments – from travel magazines, in-flight magazines, newspapers, and any national (Indian) / foreign or International publication interested in news/reports/features of the stopover at Kochi or Kochi related travel stories.
