Palolem, India (Goa) - Moped Diaries Part 1

After a very short 17 hour bus ride from Mumbai, we arrived at Palolem, a beach town in the province of Goa. The bus tickets we bought were for a sleeper with AC. We got neither, India Travel Agents 1 us 0.This beach is supposed to be one of the better party beaches in India although it still seemed tame. Regardless we had an awesome week.



Hugh our Irish buddy suggested that we rent mopeds and tour around the mostly rural area, defiantly a good call.


Paul was really hoping that the mopeds came with a leather one piece suit. It didn't so he decided to go shirts off, that's just how he rolls.

Riding around on mopeds allowed us to see allot of the area that wouldn't have gotten to see. Added bonus the four of us on mopeds looked pretty rough.

Along the way we ran into this temple and had a look inside.


This lad is the third Irishman of the group Dermott. He was a big fan of the mopeds as well.

Sweet bucket T

Along the way we stumbled upon this small secluded beach. It was a bit of a trek to get to but completely worth it.



That just screams badass





Another week in Paradise, I'm getting used to this.
