Hello everyone!! Hopefully this update will be successful - we haven't had much luck! Also, we've been discussing, and realised that this will probably be a rather boring blog as it's WAY more interesting to read about pickpockets and camels than sunsets and cocktails! Still, we'll power on - for your sake only of course! When we last wrote we were in Colva, which is in Southern Goa. The highlight of Colva was ... "Karaoke with Oskar" ! It was a Tu...
