Anjuna Beach Travel Blogs

Background: The Indus Valley civilization, one of the oldest in the world, dates back at least 5,000 years. Aryan tribes from the northwest invaded about 1500 B.C.; their merger with the earlier Dravidian inhabitants created the classical Indian culture. Arab incursions starting in the 8th century and Turkish in the 12th were followed by those of European traders, beginning in the late 15th century. By the 19th century, Britain had assumed political control of virtually all Indian lands. Indian armed forces in the British army played a vital role in both World Wars. Nonviolent resistance to British colonialism led by Mohandas GANDHI and Jawaharlal NEHRU brought independence in 1947. The subcontinent was divided into the secular state of India and the smaller Muslim state of Pakistan. A third war between the two countries in 1971 resulted in East Pakistan becoming the separate nation of Bangladesh. Despite impressive gains in economic investment and output, India faces pressing problems such as the ongoing dispute with Pakistan over Kashmir, massive overpopulation, environmental degradation, extensive poverty, and ethnic and religious strife.

Freitag der 13. Seit Heute werde ich dran glauben! War im Inland unterwegs um eine Gewuerzfarm zu besichtigen. War auch alles wunderbar nur der Rueckweg war ein wenig unerwartet. Der Rikshaw wurde die vorfahrt genommen und schon lagen wir Kopfueber im Strassengraben (Wir= der Fahrer und ich). Das andere Auto fuhr einfach weiter..... Fahrerflucht. Haben es zum Glueck nicht gerammt oder so. Der Rikshaw Fahrer ist einfach ausgewichen ansonst haetten wir das andere Auto gerammt. Also schnell raus aus der total demolierten Rikshaw. Sagen wir mal vorher war sie viereckig so war sie jetzt heftigs [View Full Entry]

Storys aus dem Sueden Asia » India » Goa » Anjuna Beach
Goa...Sonne, Strand, Palmen... Halt stop irgend etwas stimmt nicht. Richtig mit dem guten Wetter stimmt nur bedingt. Wenns um die Temperatur geht ist Goa nicht zu toppen, trotz 30 Grad ist es angenehm und nicht zu heiss aber in den 2 Tagen seit denen ich hier bin war es zunaechst bewoelkt und dann begann es zu regnen. So ein richtiger Sommerregen wie in Deutschland bloss noch angenehmer. Zum Glueck hats aber nur heute Abend geregnet und so war der Tag doch gelungen. Aber vieleicht mal wieder ein parr Storys. First "Zeit fuer ein Bier": Ein wenig unterwegs gewesen in Goa unter [View Full Entry]

Tuesday, Oct 20th Later on in Anjuna, Goa So, now we arrived in Goa. Our plane was about an hour late, but if you learn one thing here, it’s patience… Besides patience, India teaches you thankfulness. I am just so lucky, that I was born where I was born and that I was able to live outstandingly well, go to school, get a university degree and so on. But let me get on with Goa: my first impression: very touristy, reminded me kinda of the Canary Islands. We met two girls at the airport and shared a taxi with them, which [View Full Entry]

Our stay at Goa was rather overshadowed by lots and lots of monsoonal rain. At one time we couldn't leave the place where we were staying (with friends of Pete) to go out and get food. We did brave it a couple of times and got wet right through to every last bit of clothing. Not that bad really as it still wasn't cold. I would like to go back to Goa out of the monsoon season as I believe the place really comes alive. There are some lovely palm fringed beaches and lots of interesting old buildings in the old [View Full Entry]

North Goa = lapping it up! Asia » India » Goa » Anjuna Beach
Hi everyone. Thomas here! VV is busy updating her CV for job stuff (I know I know, she never stops does she) so I have been elected as chief blog do-a-ra. Ok so for the last 6 days we have been in north Goa in a place called Anjuna. It’s basically a beach town famous for a Wednesday flee market on the beach and sun and sea and other beachy goings on. Because its been low season on our trip so far we have seen very few westerners but the first thing we noticed about this place is that its full [View Full Entry]

Yesterday we arrived in Goa and it's beautiful... at least our hotel that is. For the first week in India, we're just trying to relax and take it easy... trying to prepare ourselves for the "Delhi belly" but we haven't gotten it yet... knock on wood! Today we did a tour of Goa. Guilty to say we did most of the tour in our car though. I don't mind the heat that much here but it's the humidity that is unbearable. Haven't gotten my hair done in a year so right now it's like that Vietnamese glass/cellophane noodles, when you add [View Full Entry]

Hello So we have had a busy busy few weeks traveling around India - mostly with a day or two here and there with 12 hour train journeys in between. I'll try to give you an idea what we did in each place we visited below but be warned this might turn out to be an epic blog! Varanasi The first place we visited after Darjeeling. We found out it IS possible to fit three people and all their luggage in an Auto-Rickshaw (just) as we sped through the narrow streets to get to the ghat area where we had to [View Full Entry]

The saga continues Asia » India » Goa » Anjuna Beach
One of the India women we got to know in Arambol said that her Dad ran a resteraunt and guest house in Anjuna and we should check it out so thats what we did. It looked grand so we stayed. It was right in the middle, both in the mddle of nowhere and everywhere. Anjuna is split in to the beach and the main road in town. We were in the middle, so we had to walk if we wanted to go anywhere but at least we could... Curlies is the place to be on Thursdays in Anjuna, we had an [View Full Entry]
