Mandrew at Mandrem
After 6 months of "gruelling" nonstop travelling, we are finally on holiday. A real beach holiday in a little hut by the sea here in Goa.
It was only fate, luck and last minute planning that brought us here,
*For 6 months ago India was not on our itinerary, and certainly not the tiny Indian state of Goa which quite literally one member of this pair had never heard of until 2 months ago (not naming names, but it's the one whose home country is one that most people have never heard of).
*Just 2 weeks ago we didn't even have a ticket booked to India
*And just 2 days ago we didn't think we'd be let into the country because of it's bureacratic incompetence.
*But after meeting a very cool Swiss couple in Barcelona who convinced us that India was fantastic, we added it to our itinerary.
*And because all flight to Delhi were booked, we ended up in Mumbai (Bombay).
*And because we happened to find (via the web), a yoga school on the beach...
Here we are, Mandrew on Mandrem Beach, North Goa. A little piece of paradise. And the beauty is, Paradise here only costs only $25/day for our own hut, excellent indian and western food, motor scooter and incidentals!!
Check out our place:
Dunes Holdiay Resort and our
Yoga school.
We don't actually start at this yoga school until Friday, however in the meantime we're going to join the yoga classes at our "hotel".
Our new cell phone in Inida is: +91 9822 989 212, However we're not getting very good reception here at the beach, but you could give it a shot, in case we're in range!
