New year is the best part of the year, mine has become one to remember the end. Goa is known for parties and beaches, but now I know it's know for culture and love too. Staying in a small hostel, I got to meet so many people from different places, and one who stole my heart was the owner itself. Right from hospitality to food, from caring to sharing, he was an wonderful soul one can encounter. My short trip of 3 days extended into a week trip only cause he showered me with love. I went around the city in his bike. Saw all the beaches , the beautiful churches and the breath taking monuments . Food is goa is a wow. Seafood is something which is a must try. You get all great food in a reasonable rate. I ended up shopping for all the extra days I stayed back, but still had extra bucks to come back. So I would say it's a cheap place to shop and to have fun. On the whole my goa trip was remarkable and the reason behind it was the hostel owner, who spent his time in telling me what is more beautiful that the nightlife in goa that is the culture and the localites. Goa , this time I discovered the hidden.
