bomble Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 I lived in Goa for about 4 months and volunteered as a teacher in a high school. I have seen many different sides to Goa, and I'd be happy to help with more specific questions - email me. take care, bomble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DJ Full Lotus Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 You can get charter flights straight to Goa from the UK. Otherwise, you'll have to fly in to Mumbai and either get an internal flight, the train or bus. There is also a ferry service available from Mumbai to Goa. Check out the Rough Guide to India or Lonley Planet Guide. Be aware of the local laws as well. Goa is great to party in, but you have to be careful(drugs) and respect the locals....it's not like any other part of India. Have fun....and Namaste!!

Guest AMP Posted January 30, 2002 Share Posted January 30, 2002 Thank you for all the replies And dont worry, I dont want to go there to be the normal european tourist, that only wants drugs and problems. I like to travel to countries, and avoid the tourist route as much as possible. I like to get to know the local people, and make them see me as less tourist as they can, since that is the only way to really know where you are. Anyway, Ill keep posting my doubts, thank you for your help. Plur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest samsara Posted February 22, 2002 Share Posted February 22, 2002 why are you going to goa? theres a lot more to India than Goa... Goa is very westernized..keep in mind it was a portugese colony for quite some time and is completely different from India itself... if you want to get off the beatan track in goa..(if thats possible) dont stay in anjuna or candolin stay in Chapora or across that river near Chapora...
