What's wrong with south Goa

Hi everybody,

Since months we've been planning our move to Goa, and despite the
desaster which happened, life goes on.

I'm very suprised that all tourist guides ( lonely planet, etc.) are mainly
focused on North-Goa, even all the video's, and DVD's, the only thing You see is the north ???

There defenately is an other part of Goa, and that is the part we are planning to live.

Why is there so little interrest in this part??

Hi Ray,

LP and other tourist guides only talk about North Goa because they all move in the touristic world. South Goa has less tourism infrastructure and that's why fortunately SG is less popular.

I was early December in Palolem and (in my opinion) is the place to stay.

Palolem in December - a place to chill out ????????????
I'm so glad I saw India before
I think I have a different idea of chill out to others
I don't call wall to wall tourists drinking and smoking etc a chill out.
Most of these people don't even know that they are in India
It's stuffed
