Things that evoke nostalgia for Goans

STEP BACK IN TIME 

Although life is about living in the present, some experiences have the power to take us on a nostalgic journey through time.

FERRY RIDES

Modern bridges may have replaced most of these rides. But, even today, stepping onto a ferry, its gentle rocking motion, and the breathtaking views revive memories of bygone eras, when the pace of life was leisurely and slow.

KONKANI TUNES

Konkani music is more than just a genre, it's a time machine. Whether it's Lorna's Bebdo or tiatr songs that take a dig at politicians, these tunes have a way of teleporting Goans back to their youthful days.

BICYCLE RIDES

Even today, cycling through Goa's villages evokes memories of childhood summers, filled with fun and joy. The wind in your hair and the rhythmic pedalling can still transport you back to those simple days.

VILLAGE FEASTS

In the midst of modernity, the village feast remains a nostalgic haven, where traditions of the past live on. From the anticipation to the preparations, the lively spirit of the community is infectious.

OLD BAKERIES

Sometimes, visiting Goa's old bakeries is almost like getting a warm hug. The sweet, comforting aroma of freshly baked bread wafting through the air takes you back to the familiar kitchen of your childhood.

FISHING BOATS

As a profession, fishing may no longer interest the youth of today. Yet, the fishing boats that dot Goa's shoreline remind one of a time when life revolved around the sea and the rhythm of the tides.
