Re: [Goanet] Open Questions to Churchill Alemao

[Richard & Betsy Nunes]

Kuddos to you, Eddie Verdes, You are absolutely right when you state 
that: As far as I know, Goan Tarvottis are the only True Goans who have 
worked hard on the ships, got their children educated and developed / 
built their own houses in Goa. We live in the Carmona / Cavelossim area 
and have discovered, to our delight, that the best big homes are in this 
area. During the Festive season, it is such a delight to drive around 
the inner pathways and see the massive Cribs that have been erected with 
love and such thoughtfulness. What's more these homes are well 
maintained and painted inside out on a very regular basis. Villagers in 
this area love their homes and we love living amongst them. They have 
made us so welcome and we thoroughly enjoyed the Festive Seasons here, 
Carol-singing in various homes, parties, relationships and friendships. 
The Chapel in Benaulim, Patrocino Church, offers such beautiful Church 
Services on a Saturday evening, their singing is great and inspiring too.
We are retirees here in Goa from June, 2008 and have thus far enjoyed 
living in this area. Betsy and Richard Nunes
