Last month, I took a week off and went to Goa, and one of the places I visited was my cousin’s farm in the hinterlands. His farm is maybe 20 kilometers away from Margao, at Netrolim – and it is an amazing place.
Completely off Goa’s beaten tourist track, it is a serene and bountiful world untouched by modern civilization. My cousin took me around coconut, cashew and spice plantations in the unspoiled, verdant greenery of Goa’s hilly countryside.
