My wife and I have travelled extensively, both on holiday and in our individual professional capacities. We have found Goa to be our favourite destination. For the holiday maker Goa has a lot to offer; beautiful beaches, stunning scenery and accomodation ranging from luxury 5 star hotels to back-packers hostels.

Thinking of Goa? Think of corruption, more corruption and even more corruption. From the police who’ll let you off with most things for a slide of rs50. To the barber who charges you rs150 for haircut because you’re white, when going rate is rs35. Take a look in Newton’s and Babutes in Calangute who both erase government controlled prices on... More
