Fakes De Lorena Herrera




The last four days we spent in Goa . This is the last state in India to gain independence from the colonial metropolis. The Portuguese did not want to release or crazy. Had to be a military incursion India in 1961 when they left for legs. Let this was Portuguese ten years before I was born. Looking at obituaries of local papers almost every the deceased have Portuguese names. After it became a hippie paradise. Today is a much sought after destination in travel agencies. Our hotel has direct access to the beach where there are plenty of bars (some more prepared than others). Cows roam freely through the sand and the odd tourist gives watermelon to cool off. Here wandering feral dogs live in groups and enjoying the sun like the rest of living things are in place. What is most striking to see the Candolim beach is the tanker aground in the sand. Spent 20 years with the
swimmers and now
are considering their removal. About ten miles is Anjuna, an area with a large
market and cabins for rent near the beach. The method of bargaining do not understand very well, gives me a few scarves india
for 1900 rupees, and just giving him 500. To return to the hotel I try again with a taxi driver asked me 300
, I say give him 200, then says nothing. I try another and I said to 250, in the end we made the journey by 220.
Heading south we found the shooting of Bollywood scenes on a pier.
The deployment is great but the material seems very old. Our destination is an old Portuguese fort called Fort Aguada which is in very good condition because it was
left in 1997 to make a new lighthouse. On the way there is a sort of convent
abandoned and some other church that looks more like a small chapel. There is a junction that leads to the Aguada jail where there are few foreigners arrested for drugs. It's easy to get because you offer them on the beach and in the markets, but here there is no difference between the amount for personal use and quantity for sale. The first day some Indians wanted to take some pictures with me and took turns the camera to take his trophy each. Sure place in a Facebook page as the European friend who met in Goa. Tomorrow
but we will leave for Bangalore flight is canceled and we will take one seven hours later.
continue.
