Bring the city culture here, that I long left behind.

What I would change in Goa:

Revive the simplicity that Goa that we all cherish and which is slowly fading away

My tips to people who want to move here are

If you are moving here, expect a 360-degree change in way of living. Best is to leave the city life and its way behind.

Life in Goa to me is all about

Engaging in local way of living and customs. Also, choosing the path of sustainability and purpose led life, with inclusivity.

A place in Goa that calms you down/ makes you happy:

My garden.

Must-do things in Goa:
