- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 มิ.ย. 2024
- We've made it to Goa and these are our first impressions! We think South Goa might just be Indian Paradise. South Goa is an ideal place for digital nomads, expats adventurers, yogis, backpackers and even young families. It's super chill. This is what staying in Palolem Beach and Patnem beach is like. This is our South Goa vlog.
Stay tuned for more upcoming videos, we post every Sunday.

Goa looks nice! Looks like a completely different world from where we are now 😆
Haha a very different vibe for sure to where we are now. Would definitely recommend eventually making your way down south 👌
That's why they say, EUROPE as whole of tinpot countries can't offer more diversity than INDIA as 1 nation..
You can even experience SNOWFALL of Finland, & Sahara Desert of Africa, here in 1 country..
If you're in India, please consider avoiding the commonly visited, stereotypical destinations like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Chennai. Instead, explore the hidden gems of the country
these are the most breathtaking places that India has to offer.

Wow thank you so much for all the recommendations. That’s so kind of you. We will look into some of the areas ( sadly I don’t think we have time for it all ☺️)
That smoothie bowl was so big. Looked yummy. I never think of beaches when I think of India but it looked lovely.
It was sooo good Libby! I may have got it three times while we were in Goa :)
India has everything - beaches, mountains, deserts, snow, wild life safaris - everything! And, some of them look like what you could never imagine to exist anywhere. Did you know that India has a tribe that hasn't yet discovered fire? Yes, fire, they don't know what it is.
Goa looks beautiful. India looks beautiful. Stay safe and healthy ❤
It’s a beautiful place and we will try our best too ♥️ thanks :)
India is a big and diverse country, but most foreigners tend to visit the same cities. The most beautiful places in India aren't found in these big cities; they're in the Himalayan valleys and villages, Indian islands, the northeastern part of India, the Western Ghats and Eastern Ghats, the Sunderbans, and the Thar Desert.
If you're still in India, I can suggest some historical and beautiful places you can search online to see how beautiful they are. Ladakh, North Sikkim, Meghalaya, Lakshadweep Islands, Arunachal Pradesh, Aru Valley, Sonamarg, Pahalgam, Spiti Valley, Sangla Valley, Parvati Valley, Kalpa, Dharamshala, Dalhousie, Kerala, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Auroville, Nagaland, Jaisalmer, Gokarna, Rann of Kutch, and Hampi are some of the best places you should visit in India.
Additionally, here are some of the best historical buildings India has ever produced: Phugtal Monastery, Ajanta and Ellora Caves, Khajuraho Temples, Key Monastery, Tawang Monastery, Badami Caves, Konark Sun Temple, Rani Ki Vav, Barabar Caves, Living Root Bridges in Meghalaya, Harihar Fort, Prabalgad Fort, Dharmarajeshwara Temple, Karnala Fort, Raigad Fort, Gwalior Fort, Basgo Monastery, Mahabodhi Temple, Nalanda University, Sanchi Stupa, Brihadeeswarar Temple, Mehrangarh Fort, Amber Fort, Statue of Unity, and Jaisalmer Fort.
If you're looking for a relaxing island experience in India, then consider visiting the Lakshadweep Islands or Andaman and Nicobar Islands. They have crystal-clear blue waters and white sand beaches that are much better than any other beaches in India. My top 5 recommendations definitely include Ladakh, North Sikkim, Meghalaya, Andaman Islands, and Pahalgam or Spiti Valley.
WoW thank you for all the recommendations we will look into some of the places and hopefully be able to go :)
shut up spammer, same old stuff you come up in every f in video!!
Wow,
Love from France🇫🇷❤️
I love dosa too Dev. Indian food is one of my favorites. Enjoy while you’re there😊
It’s so delicious!!! And thanks Aranya, we will try our best to enjoy it all 🥰 thanks for watching!!
Visit Sikkim, Meghalaya, Assam and Arunachal Pradesh in Northeast India. Also in Northeast India, Duzkou Valley trek in Nagaland is a must (you will not regret it)
Thanks for the recommendations we will look into them :)
U should visit ladakh Leh, kashmir, Shimla, Manali, Rishikesh, udaipur, jodhpur, Jaisalmer, pushkar, Goa, Kerala, Bangalore, hampi, meghalaya, Darjeeling, Sikkim, Andaman and Nicobar islands in India 🇮🇳❤️
Thank you for all the recommendation, we actually have quite a few of those places on our list :)
Hi Keith and Dev, South Goa is like a Tropical Paradise in India. Everything looks amazing there and the Sunsets are gorgeous.
It must be so funny to randomly walk down the street and see a Cow just out chilling. I wonder if someone is responsible to feeding them or if they fend for themselves. They look a little on the thin side but I guess that is normal there. They believe in Reincarnation so the Cows could be there Great Great Grandfather or Grandmother.
Enjoy following your journey so keep up the good work.
Hey Ben, thanks for watching the video, we are so happy you enjoyed it. We actually looked up the cows and apparently there are a lot of street cows as they get abandoned when they are not need anymore, or done there job. Not sure that’s just what the internet told us 🤷♀️
hi, not all of them are abandoned, particularly in rural India Cows are left to graze outside during daytime and they come back home at sunset.
@@Orunda thank you for letting us know :)
Honestly Dev I (Robyn) relate to you 100% when it comes to anxiety around the beginning of travels! Especially in a new area of the world 🤗 No matter how many trips I've done, it takes me a while to feel comfortable with all the unknowns that come around travelling! So I appreciate you being open and honest with the reality of it ❤
Awe thanks Robyn, that means a lot to me
Thanks for sharing ❤
Wishing you all the best ❤
Thanks Ana! We hope you are well 🥰
@@KeithandDev ❤️
Hi keith and dev your content is awesome and it was so engaging! keep up the great work.😊👍
Wow, thank you! That really means a lot to us!! :)
Looks beautiful!!
Thanks for watching emjoy ♥️
visit andaman and nicobar island
You should go nroth goa first and then to south ...from chaos to peace 😂
Haha I have to say we loved the peacefulness of South Goa ☮️😌
My first time in Goa 1983, (you guys may have not even born ) since 1994 being going on my own, I always hire a two wheeler cos I need to roam around, finding hidden beaches, i am sure you guys did not make it to Kakolem beach 😅😅 BTW I was staying in Benaulim in the 2nd week of March.
it’s such a wonderful place, we understand why you keep going back :)
Nice video..👌👍
Thanks!! :)
Your Cinematography skill is outstanding!!!
awe thank you that means a lot to us 😊
You guys have great video editing skills
Thank you so much! :)
Visit Andaman&Nicobar and also Lakshadweep.
❤❤
you did the right thing. I am Indian even I avoid north goa. Though if you go further north then you will find Morjim,- Arambol stretch which is also a decent option.
Good to know :) thanks for sharing the information!
Nice video. Please kindly remind all to keep the Goa beaches clean. thx,
Definitely!! 😊
❤
Pls visit lakshadweep island crystal clear water..peaceful place u will enjoy close to goa
We looked it up! WoW it’s beautiful! Hopefully one day :)
Goa oh man I miss my hometown. Sending lots of love from Toronto Canada. Thanks for showing me my home. Hoping y’all had a great time, be safe y’all .
Aww thanks ❤️ absolutely, thank you for watching! You have a lovely hometown 😊
Happy Travelling... Hope see you soon in Cox’s Bazar ( world longest natural beach), Bangladesh 🇧🇩...❤
One day! 😊
U can visit south India u can see variety of different foods temples heritage and culture especially Kerala and Tamil Nadu it's amazing Kerala, munnar, kochi, wayanad, Ooty, coimbatore, manglore, Gokarna, Coorg, Bangalore, Mysore, Alleppey, Udupi the world heritage site tanjavur bruhadeeshwara temple tamilnadu and palani temple tamilnadu here the god idol is made up of different ayurvedic medicines when we pour any liquid on idol it absorbs the medicinal properties and we drink the liquid we don't get any diseses
wow, thank you for all the recommendations!
You should try visiting Querim Beach in north goa , it is the best place if you want quiet and want to relax , also it has less crowded, with no indian people
Thanks for the recommendation :)
Nice vlog
Thank you :)
It's not just cows guys. India is full of all kinds of animals. Cows, dogs, cats, monkeys , camels, leopards and lions too in Gujrat. It's a Hindu thing , we don't like killing things , prefer getting along with them 😊.
We love that :)
Iam a hindu and iam from kerala and we eat beef here .we don't worship any animals .
Quite aware that there are Hindus that take pride in being under the influence of external cultures . Thankfully they are in a small minority and have no chance of changing the fundamental ethos of our country.
@@akshay7887 good for you! You do you other hindus don't care..hindus must follow their own individual dharma and do their karma accordingly..you choose what's right for you..OP is talking about hindus that care about animals and coexist and not the beef eating "we don't care about animals" kinda hindus from Kerala who boast about it everywhere
@@akshay7887 its your choice . By the way it's only happens in south. Hindu always worship cow like our mother. So we can't hurt our mother.
I would suggest travelling to Kerala, Andaman & Nicobar Islands and Ladakh. Avoid going to Delhi, Agra and Varanasi.
Thank for the suggestions :) we appreciate it!
#StaySouthStaySafe
Nice to see you both.
Lakshadweep Islands and Andaman and Nicobar Islands have the best beaches in India, thousands of times better than the beaches in Kerala or Goa.
Thanks for the recommendations, hopefully one day we can visit the islands:)
i think you havent visited the real paradise yet...the northeastern india, its the real paradise of snow
We plan to visit that area as well :)
If you want to see hundreds of waterfalls, cloud covered landscape, root bridge a feat of human bio-engineering of thousands of years, wettest place on planet earth, clean rivers and lakes where you can literally see your reflection in the water, caves, mountains, cleanest village in Asia then visit the state called Meghalaya. It's in the north-east region of India. Every state in that region is beautiful. You call also visit Sikkim which is the most civilized city of India, no traffic honkings, no rash driving, less population, clean streets, amazing sunrise and sunsets, lots of cafes. Then there is nagaland, arunachal pradesh and Assam (world's largest riverine island, one horned rhino population, tea gardens etc etc). The food of the north eastern region of India is unlike any other region of India. It isnt spicy or oily. Very very different might remind you of South east asian cuisine a bit. Also some really cool festivals/ music festivals take place there like orange festival, ziro festival, weekender in shillong. Check places like wari chora (might remind you of jurassic park).
Wow those places sound amazing! Thank you for all the detail. We will definitely look into your recommendations 😊
For best beaches in India go to Andamans or Lakshadweep islands
We've heard they are amazing we have added to our list for our next india trip!
Welcome to Bali Indonesia cantik❤
We’re in India ☺️
@@KeithandDev yes i know... When you go to Bali...
which beach you love the most in goa ? i felt boring because i came alone as solo...
We only visited two beaches but we really liked Patnam beach :)
@@KeithandDev that’s cool 😎 enjoy your holiday
@@Arunkumar-pl6dx Thanks!
What else did you expect?
Just check the Geography of India. 7k kms of coastline, Himalayas in North, desert in the west etc.
If you want Torquoise blue water then head to the islands of Lakshadweep ( closer to Kerala) and Andaman.
Thanks for the recommendations:)
India is not only about goa ...😅😅😂 There are many places wich are much more beautiful than goa that will blow your mind ❤❤ india has lot more to offer...just keep traveling...
We plan too :) this was just the start of our trip! ☺️
@@KeithandDev do visit kashmiri...north east.. West and south of India 🇮🇳🇮🇳 highly recommend you will never leave India ❤❤🇮🇳
@@tanmaytrivedi2645 is it not there a Spanish women got raped ?. And people just disturb tourists by mobbing them asking for selfies and street with full of cows all around. No thank you
#Stay away from North
@@tanmaytrivedi2645 Super unsafe for women
@@Proudglobalking 😅you are in India not in Pakistan....for your kind information India is safer than USA UK and many other countries you can't get killed or shot down without any reason in India
It's a Portuguese colony
Yeah cool colonial builds there’s too
@@KeithandDev F O**
