Goa was more a chill trip than anything. I saw like 10 minutes of the beach because it was pouring relentlessly the whole time, and the waves were too strong for us to go in to play. (The water did NOT look inviting ) and what I enjoyed most about the trip was ironically the bus ride there and back. And the calamari we had for lunch but I digress. They were lonngggg bus rides. We left Bangalore at 7pm on Friday and got to Goa at 10.45 am on Saturday. We left Goa at 5.45pm on Sunday and I just got back today at 7.30am. They were long rides, yet I enjoyed them because I got to lie down + sleep and talk a bit with my roomie. We haven’t been talking a lot and I wouldn’t say that we talked a lot yesterday either but the conversation did make me question a few things.

#1 Why do I travel?


Sitting in an upper bunk of the bus and giggling like two school girls we came to the realization that both of us are hiding out in India to seek a certain respite. Running away from people in Singapore; searching for a chance to overwrite memories. To say that India is the perfect hideout is an understatement since this is the last place anybody would come to. This trip opened my eyes to how silly, how stupid, how ridiculously naïve this twenty-one year old has been, and to realize that familiarity breeds contempt just like how absence makes the heart grow fonder.
