Most people don't even meet REAL Goans, by djferros
i am surprised by the amount of people on this forum who have stated things about meeting goans, good or bad. The point is that many of these people are NOT even Goan.It's me moving from London to Birmingham and saying, "i'm a Brummie".
Not all brown faces are Goan faces. If you learn the history of Goa you will note that it was once under Portugese rule. You can identify many Goans by they mixture of Portugese and Indian culture.
Names such as Orlando, Rueben, Maria, D'Souza, Cruz etc are genuine Goans. Most will not even go to the tourist places.
The only Indians that go to the tourist places are the people that moved to Goa to make money from the tourists! or Indian tourists themselves!The goan people. So so so so friendly. Not involved with drugs and crime that has been brought on Goa by other Indians who have moved to Goa to exploit tourists. These are NOT goans.
