Poste Restante

Hi again,

Since we are going to move to Goa soon, and don't have a perminent adress yet, we have to relay on poste restante for a start.
We are planning to live in Benaulim, so the best poste restante adress is in Margao.
How do we give an adress in advance??
For ex.
is this correct: PETTERSEN Jane, GPO, Poste Restante, 403601 Margao, Salcete, Goa, India. ????

I would say the post office in Colva would be more suitable for you!! It's just a short hop from Benaulim around 2-3km and I'm sure they're used to dealing with tourists using their poste restante service.
The post code is Colva 403708.

Thanks Hippy, there seems to be a few different ways to lay out the address. I was trying to get it right.
