My yearly sojourns to Goa !

This is the first time in over last 5 years (or even more ) that I have not been to Goa for an year ! My November is invariably spent in Goa. The Covid pandemic this year has prevented my travels, official as well as leisure ! 

I have explored Goa , north to south , east to west. I am especially fond of Madgaon , Panjim and Mapusa. During 2000-2002 , I lived in Wilmington, North Carolina. I find a glaring similarity between the cities of Wilmington and Panjim-Vasco area especially in terms of geography where a river meets the sea.. a port .. an airport and the calm pace in life on the coast.

I must mention clearly here that visiting Goa once a year is a bliss and fun, staying there for too long may not be so !

Here are links to albums and blogs, I have written every November during my yearly sojourn to Goa and Surashree Kesarbai Kerkar Classical Music Festival.
