Now and from years from the past every Country Vacations soul who wants to bask in the sun and luxury head to the magnificent state of Goa. The people of this region are strong, prudent and very hardworking. The state of Goa is one of the most important in India. It is civilized, having famous orchards and beaches. It is the coolest place in India to party and it has one of the best cuisines.
'The foreigners make a practice of going to the state of Goa to enjoy the shade and the groves of trees and to savour the remarkable cuisine.
These revealing remarks on Goa come not from the hippies or 'flower power' generation of the sixties and early seventies who thronged the beaches of Anjuna, Vagator and Arambol in search of salvation and 'peace'. These remarks were made over five centuries ago by the Portuguese Ambassador to China who visited Goa around the year 1511. They serve as a vivid precursor to the generations that followed in our times to the fabled land of Goa.
In those tumultuous and rebellious times in the sixties, it was then not the 'sweet betel' that was the prime attraction but a different kind of 'weed'. But Goa, since those days of the angry generation, has moved on to attract a multitudinous, peaceful and cosmopolitan school of visitors from all around the globe. These visitors consist of the Country Vacations members too.
