Goa is awesome, the beaches are great and there are still heaps of old hippies living down here that probably are still here from when the beatles used to come. Perfect sunsets, perfect beach cafes the only problem is being hassled constantly to buy stuff. I swim all day so the hagglers cant sell me necklaces and massages on the beach. We have m...

Lauantai. Vika paiva. Kaytiin bongaamassa delfiineja turistiveneella. Pikkupaattiin ahdettiin meidan lisaksi kymmenkunta muutakin turistia. Jonkun aikaa odoteltuamme saatiin sitten nahda pari delfiinin evaa, mutta yhtaan kunnon hyppya ne ei suostunut esittamaan. Pikkuhiljaa paikalle tuli yha enemman turisteja kuskaavia veneita ja kaikki vahtasiv...

No niin. Nyt viela pari paivaa aikaa parannella rusketuksia. Eilen kaytiin taas paikallisilla markkinoilla. Kierreltiin nyt ihan eri suunnalla markkina alueella ja hitto, etta niita kojuja riittaa! Siis ihan mielttomasti. Samat tavarathan joka toisessa kojussa on pienin variaatioin, mutta on niita ihan hauska katella ja yrittaa valkata se epato...

Happy New Year to All! We celebrated our night with a luxury dinner. We found a nice beach restaurant, picked out our fish, a 18" white snapper cooked Indian style. With fish, a chicken dish and four cocktails, our bill was a whopping $20. We love the third world, even in the "resort" beach town, everything is still cheap. That night we went to ...

Lahdettiin uuden vuoden aattona kavelyretkelle ja suunnaksi valittiin pohjoinen. Ensin kiivettiin kivalle maennyppylalle, josta oli mukavat maisemat Anjunan yli. Sielta laskeuduttiin Vagator Beachille, jonka jalkeen matka jatkui kohti Chaporan linnoitusta pienien ja nattien sivukujien kautta. Linnoitus oli.. noh, linnoitus. Sammaloituneita kivia...

hard to know when to upload the pictures. I don't know why but this software is a little nonsensical to me.

Monday nite I think it's time for us to have the upside down teddy bear conversation. This is something which Jenny pointed out. Around the neighborhood there are teddy bear hanging by nooses--upside down. A little eerie. They look more like effigies to me. Little grey men hanging in the wind. Hard to say. I think I failed to mention the noises ...

One thing that is very distinctive here in Goa as well as generally in India where I've been. Is how open the buildings tend to be. Of course, it's because it's so hot/warm here. The place where I ate dinner tonight had a roof and beautiful lights with textile "lampshades" of all colors and otherwise completely open to the outdoors. All of the h...

Well we spent 2 weeks in Anjuna which is famed for its hedonistic, hippy, acid party trance music scene. I cant believe how quickly it went. Although on a couple of occasions three day benders seemed like one day. We arrived in Baga after flying from Delhi. Baga is a tourist resort in Goa which has alot of 2 weeker package people from England. W...

Me and My estonion friend were on the way to a party on our scooters in the midle of the night and we found this tiny black puppy weak and almost dead on the middle of the road, we doubled back to the estonian space ship (the name of the house) an fed him milk mixed with gator aid and revived him, over the next few days we pulled out all her tic...
