I love traveling on my own; not just because I’m a bit of a shit, it’s because I get to do whatever I want…or not. However, I will admit that, sometimes, having someone else there to push you to do things you wouldn’t usually do is a good thing. My Swedish chum is a chef and makes a point of doing a cookery class in each country he visits. For all the years I’ve traveled, I’ve actually never done one…but if it’s good enough for a professional chef then it’s good enough for me!
The food was truly delicious, and I’ve certainly picked up a few tips (…like cutting the onions so badly someone else has to do them….).
The little vegan friendly resaurant I'm eating in tonight, which is likely my last night in Goa. It's called The Avocado Garden. So far the Mango Lemonade (containing like juice instead of lemon) is really good. I'm a bit nervous to be leaving Goa. This is the state where I split off from my mom 10 days ago and started traveling on my own. Which caused a lot of anxiety before I got my accommodation booking. Subsequently I've improvised travel plans and changed where I was taking connecting busses one day and arrived in a place (Arambol) with no accommodation booked only to find the one I wanted was unavailable. But I punted there, got in a nearby hostel (Rasta Mansion) and had a lovely time. I really like staying in Hostels. They make what could be a really solitary travel experience into a quite possibly very social one. And I've found I like the social connections more than the beach (at least by myself), and probably more than any one other thing too. I've also been to some music parties here in Goa, which have been a mixed bag. The one I went to last night "Silent Noise" at Neptune Point here in Palolem was amazing. Way better than all the rest. The best another guy had been to. It was a headphones party with 3 DJs and 3 channels of music and it was so amazing and good. And made even better by the social element. I went with a number of people fromy Hostel and we ended up dancing with 3 Indian ladies there on a bachelorette trip. All the interactions were great. Anyhow, my Palak Paneer has arrived so I should stop writing and get to eating.
