We arrived a couple days ago to beautiful village
called Benaulim. After two days of sightseeing we felt exhausted and too tired
to continue. Benaulim turned out to be the perfect escape. White and empty beach
just a few meters away from our coco hut made this very enjoyable place.
Ponda- place we went to before we arrived to Benaulim
was another loud and busy place but only 2 km from it we found a spice
plantation where we went for a tour on which we found out many interesting
facts about spices and fruits growing there.
Center of Benaulim is quite far away from a beach but
that didn’t discourage us to go there every day. It was a tiny place with
only a few streets. Much quieter than Arambol and any other villages in Goa. The
path to the center was surrounded by green fields with rice.
On of the many walks to the village we found a quiet cafe
where we stop by to have a coffee and pancakes. The owner invited us to join
him drinking his homemade alcohol fenny. We spent a nice evening listening to
his plans about travelling.
Jirka and his biggest fan- Trilok |
Our days could have been quiet without
any noisy locals bothering us while sitting on the beach if we didn’t make
friends with Trilok or more precisely if Jirka didn’t make a friend with him. This
particular Indian was very special. He knew a few words: beach, hotel, bike,
sun and he kept repeating it over and over again with some gestures just in
case we didn’t know what is he talking about. Whenever Jirka was coming out of a hut Trilok was following him to have a conversation with him.
When we were leaving Benaulim,early in the morning, he
run after us with tears in his eyes to walk us to the rickshaw.
