South Goa Beaches
Of the south Goa beaches - Agonda is the furthest north, location of The Secret Garden Guesthouse (they weren't kidding with the name).

Palolem beach guesthouses
Negotiating a price is expected, but do this with good humour, and don't mercilessly undercut the asking price.

Mumbai International Transfers
How do you kill 5 hours in Mumbai, if you don’t bhangra? We were a little apprehensive - with only 5 hours between arrival and departure.

Varkala, India
The North Cliffs of Varkala (India) comprise an 800-meter strip perched along a narrow path traversing the cliff edge. You'll need to watch your step.

INDIA T-Shirt

Kerala to Goa: Planes, Trains, Automobiles
This India West Kerala to Goa itinerary spans 31 days, including 3 short city stays in Rome, Istanbul and Edinburgh. Not bad for just €457 per person

Fort Kochi, India
It's quite a journey from the train station to the center of Fort Kochi. In India, you don’t drive on the left of the road, you drive on what is left of the road.

Mumbai: The 1000-Yard Stare
... 3 weeks in India should do it. After absorbing the dubious charm of inner city streetlife, expect Mumbai to trump - in aces - anything that has gone before.

🦟 Bite Away Insect Sting Relief
The Bite Away Insect Sting & Itch Relief pen uses targeted heat to provide fast & effective relief from the aftermath of insect bites.

Jet Airways Inflight
Air India is surprisingly the least popular of the domestic Indian airlines. How would the budget Jet Airways inflight experience stack up?

Footsteps of Jason Bourne
It's due to the seclusion and natural beauty of Palolem beach in India that this location was chosen for the shooting of the 2nd Jason Bourne movie.

Kovalam, India - Trivandrum
In the past 10 years prices have soared at Kovalam Lighthouse Beach, but it's still a relatively low-cost and chilled out destination, and well worth the experience.

Reason enough to visit India
Palolem beach Goa: White sand, relaxed music, spicy food, friendly locals, cheap booze and warm, calm seas: What more could you ask for?

Mumbai - Embrace the chaos
... but finding decent, inexpensive food in Mumbai City Fort area was more difficult than anticipated. The few up-market restaurants aren't cheap.

South Goa - Best Beaches
Pack a picnic bag, grab a hat and plenty of water, and head out to discover whatever is beyond that distant headland.
