This is the recap of the Kerala state challenge conducted on 22nd May 2021 by @Denise_Barlock , @jayasimha78 co-hosted by @Dr_AlwyPaul as part of the #worldchallenge.
Let me tell you this is the fun-filled and toughest state challenges I have attended and the competition levels were very high. Salman has rocked the show with a whopping 8000 points and won this challenge.

The challenge started with 20 fellow Local Guides and a few joining later on and all the participant’s names are put in a spinning wheel and given a chance to select a question from the given categories and all participants should answer the question in 25 seconds.

The questions are very interesting ranging from numbers to cultural and geographical facts about the beautiful state of Kerala. Not to mention the food is a special attraction. Most of the questions are gathered from the articles posted by @jayasimha78 , @TusharSuradkar , @Dr_AlwyPaul and @StephenAbraham

The first question is picked up by @TravellerG sir and he also shared a few things about his beautiful state Kerala. Jaya made sure that everyone can pick a question by removing the winner names from the wheel that I loved.

At one point, some participants started confusing the other participants by saying some wrong answers, which made this session more fun-filled.
