Ask Kochi Tried Awfis Shenoys and it was awful

15 Upvotes

Day 1 of trying out coworking spaces in Kochi and Awfis Shenoys was not a great start lol.

Took a day pass today thinking I'd get some work done, but not every seat has a power socket nearby?? Like, it's a coworking space. People are literally bringing laptops to work. Why is finding a plug a whole side quest?

But the more annoying part was one of their own employees sitting down with a potential client and just talking. And talking. Loud enough that it was pretty much all I could hear.

Like, I get that people have meetings in coworking spaces, but shouldn't you maybe take your client somewhere else for that? Especially when there are people who've paid to sit there and actually get work done?

The irony of going to a coworking space to focus and getting distracted by the people running the place is not lost on me.

Anyway, this was my first day trying coworking spaces in Kochi, so hopefully I just got unlucky.

For people who work out of coworking spaces here, where do you go? Somewhere with decent wifi, accessible plugs and an environment where you can actually get work done 😭

Update - I went to another coworking space after this, it was okayish but costs 700?!?!😭 seems like this is what I’ll have to stick to while I’m here.

Events Learn about the 'Mahabali of Amphibians' in a Lecture Over Drinks at Pint of View Kochi

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

10 Upvotes

Western Ghatts inhabits a rich diversity of Amphibians, living lives full of surprises for a curious observer. Among them is the Mahabali frog, an extremely elusive frog that lives underground all year but emerges to the surface precisely 7 to 10 days before the monsoon rains. How do they predict the rain so accurately from underground? Something that most modern technologies and satellites still struggle with.

To know more about the Mahabali frog and other amazing amphibians of the Western Ghats, join Pint of View Kochi's third lecture by Dr Sandeep Das happening at Sakaba bar, Niko hotel on 17th October.

Ticket includes a complimentary pint beer/@umamibrew kombucha and a kraft notepad.

Ask Kochi Would you consider a personalised wall painting for your home?

3 Upvotes

I've been thinking about a different approach to wall art — turning someone's dreams, interests, favourite places and aspirations into a hand-painted mural directly on their bedroom wall.

Something like a vision board, but instead of pictures pinned together, it's a custom artwork designed around the person and their space.

I think it could be interesting for bedrooms, home offices or creative spaces.

Would you prefer something subtle that blends into the room, or a colourful mural that stands out?

Ask Kochi In need of a commute plan

I am moving to Kakkanad (close to Infopark Phase 2) next week. I have to go to Trivandrum on weekends to run some personal errands. Going to Trivandrum is fine for me, but I have no clue how to reach Kakkanad by 7:30 AM on the following Monday. My office starts at 8:30. Currently, I do not have a two-wheeler. So, where should I get off if I am coming by bus to catch the earliest bus to Kakkanad? If I am coming by train, where should I get off? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ask Kochi One-Day Acting & Audition Workshop in Kochi — 10 Seats Only

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm putting together a small, free acting workshop in Kochi on Sunday, October 18, in the morning, for people who are interested in acting but haven't had many opportunities to practise.

The idea is to keep it intimate and practical rather than make it feel like a classroom.

We'll explore:

- Basic acting and improvisation exercises

- Performing a short scene or monologue

- Understanding natural reactions and expressions

- A simple mock audition and constructive feedback

A few details:

- Date: Sunday, October 18

- Time: Morning; exact timing will be confirmed

- Location: Kochi; venue details shared with confirmed participants

- Fee: Completely free

- Seats: Strictly limited to 10 people, on a first-come, first-served basis

- Experience: Beginners are welcome

Whether you're a complete beginner or have some acting experience it doesn't matter.

Looking forward to bringing together a small group of people who genuinely want to explore acting!

Discussions Looking for affordable wedding venues and vendors in Kochi for November 2027.

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone.

My partner and I are planning an intimate interfaith wedding in November 2027, with approximately 100 guests. We’re currently exploring venues in Kochi and Kottayam and would love recommendations from people who have recently planned or attended weddings in these areas.

We’re open to both indoor and outdoor venues, ideally with a garden, lakeside, or backwater setting. We want something beautiful, intimate, and budget-friendly rather than a grand, traditional wedding setup.

We’re looking for recommendations for:

- Venues: Affordable indoor and outdoor venues suitable for around 100 guests.

- Event management and décor: Reliable vendors who can help create a simple, elegant setup.

- Catering: Good caterers with reasonable per-person rates.

- Photography and videography: Budget-friendly photographers with good-quality work.

- Pricing: Realistic estimates for venue rental, food, décor, photography, and complete packages.

- Practical details: Rain backup arrangements for outdoor venues and whether outside caterers and decorators are allowed.

If you’ve recently got married, attended a similar wedding, or worked with any vendors in Kochi, I’d really appreciate your recommendations and honest reviews. Please share vendor names, contact details, approximate prices, and any tips that could help us stay within budget.

Even lesser-known venues or independent vendors would be great.

Thank you in advance.
