We are from originally from Assam but my father was brought up in Shillong, Meghalaya, therefore Goa caught his fancy during his backpacking days. Both states have many many similarities. In 1989, we shifted home to Goa. Since dad is a voracious reader, he decided to open a second hand bookshop. We had a good response especially from foreign tourists who would pop in and buy a book to read while sunbathing on the beach. But like I said yesterday, we have decided to give away books at almost throw away prices because of Kindle and other reasons. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Protect Goa's natural beauty Support Goa's first Tiger Reserve Sign the petition at: http://www.goanet.org/petition/petition.php ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
