Water Baby


Goa's a popular beach destination with backpackers. That translates to lots of amenities, a few strange sights - like cows on the beach alongside child performance acts and speedo clad Israelis - and a very chill atmosphere. Goa was once known as a raving and drug-culture destination, but aside from some cannabis emblazoned patches there isn't much left in the wake of recent crackdowns.


We visited the beach towns at Anjuna and Palolem. Anjuna is home to a popular flea market, which is mostly filled with the Tibetan paraphernalia so popular with the crowd here.
The Indian Ocean is bath-tub warm. I found a Baskin Robbins, a great bookstore, and some new shades. Oh and Mom, I didn't get sunburned! What more could you want?
