We've just returned after a glorious month spent travelling around and exploring the South Goan coast.
I've shared the first installment on my blog if you fancy taking a look:

Here's just a few of the beaches we visited:

They aren't opening very well for me on my IPad 
Perhaps you should change your blog.
I believe that in Goa only 30% of the 1.5 million population are Catholic.
The biggest religious group are Hindus.

Fascinating blog, it is when I read your blog and look at the pictures that is when I think I should really make the effort to go, then I remember all the negative posts, Visa hassle, the pollution etc and then I think no chance.
Anyway I am enjoying the blog and looking forward to see what happens to the bikini knickers in week 4

two weeks into our trip and my cheapo bikini knickers have started to go a bit saggy!
Nothing worse than when your bikini (or in my case tankini) bottoms start to loose their cling

Ooops, too right Max. I'm going by the 1851 census, vintage by name, vintage by nature!
Don't worry, those knickers managed to hold up for the entire month. Despite pao bhaji/masala dosa breakfasts, copious bottles of Kingfisher and a vegetarian feast every night for a month we always seem to lose weight when we're away. Better than any spa!

Great blog Hun. Love reading trip reports. I really enjoy getting on the bike and exploring, there are so many fantastic places away from the CCB areas. I'm looking forward to exploring around Cavelossim soon.
Dying to hear about your adventures in Cavelossim, MazD. We've been through on the bus but have yet to get off and explore. I love South Goa so much.
Here's the third instalment of our trip, the market at Margao:

And now I know why there are so many run down homes! Thanks Vix, I shall carry on reading.
Having a bit of trouble seeing the pictures after about the first six or so. Is it my PC or a problem with the blog?
Nice Blog...
yes a lot of people forget that Goa is not just Salcette and Bardez and that the interior is also heavily Hindu.
Also a lot of the houses are left locked and falling down as many of the owners do have children but a lot of the live overseas and frankly find it difficult to maintain a family house as well as one in Goa
A problem we are going to have as London House prices aren't exactly low and keeping somewhere like this locked up and maintained is hideously expensive:

Lovely photos. Which stretch of beach is this? Massive house. Is it as grand inside as it is outside?
