Maria Victor’s Life in Goa

Maria Victor, Founder of Make It Happen

Life in Goa in one word

Vibrant.

After a busy day at work you’ll find me at

Clube Vasco Da Gama.

Events that I would never miss in Goa

Bonderam Festival in Divar & Serendipity Arts Festival.

On weekends my favourite place is

Siridao Beach with my family.

My go – to place in Goa

Divar Island

That one thing I miss about Goa from my childhood

Clean beaches!

A local snack I crave

Prawn Rissois (is a Portuguese influence snack. It is a mouthwatering cheesy prawn appetizer that melts in your mouth!)

What I wish I could change about Goa

Usher in clean & sustainable tourism.

If not Goa, I would live in

Bangalore, I have lived 8 beautiful years here and it’s a very organic

choice for me.

When I’m with my oldest buddies

I am cooking scrumptious Goan recipes that I learnt from my mother.

When guests come over, I drive them to

Local Tavern hopping for some of the best Feni.
