Goa does business

its not easy to digest the fact that Goa does business; not for me atleast.
Of late, i have been traveling to Goa for business trips. When i started , i was sceptical about the probablity of business in Goa. I wondered, who would run business in Goa( you need real astutes,to run a business!!; and how do i expect to find some in goa??)...
After all Goa is all about liqour, dance, party, fishes and seas...
Now my prespective has changed. Infact i feel that i was wrong but .. partially..

I have many people there.
and one thing i found common is the need for money( which is quite obvious).
Now, the unique thing about this behaviour is the attitude with which money is desired.
They are still having a laid back attitude. And they dont change.
It is all to do with the pace with which the city moves. Grocery stores open at around 8-9 but showrooms at around 11-12(quite normal..).. but then the afternoon approaches and shops are again shut for atleast 2-3 hours.. may be its there lunch time(but who does a lunch in 3 hrs.??)..
and when its night.. goans call it a day quite early..By 9 it seems 1130...
and this is Panjim i am refering to,the capital.. Dont know what happens in rest of Goa..
I am unhappy with this attitude of Goans.. It retards my desire to do business there..
HOWEVER- I also feel good about it.. I enjoy the casual approach toward life. I relate it to my college days when my only motif was to pass the exam.. and stay in college an then find a job..
The portuegese culture gives Goa a different tinge than other states, greenry is all around.. and most importantly people are good. Heart warming and pleasing( but it seems ,now they too are learning the tricks of the trade...haha..).. i will continue with this blog. some time later

mumbai is a challenge,

although i came here with all zest and courage, but in the end it boils down to one thing...
