Goa Trip: A Dil Chahta Hai Vibe

This trip to Goa was like living in a scene from Dil Chahta Hai. Just like the trio of Akash, Sameer and Sid, we set off to make memories in the land of sun, sand, and sea. Each day brought with it new adventures, laughter, and moments that we’ll cherish forever.

Day 1: Arrival at Palolem – The Calm Before the Chaos

Much like the first moments in Dil Chahta Hai, our journey started with excitement and adventure. We arrived in Madgaon, grabbed a rental car, and headed straight to Palolem Beach. The hostel we stayed at was just a short walk from the coast, and before long, we were indulging in Italian cuisine at Bridge Inn—probably something Akash would have chosen himself.

We spent the rest of the day walking along the coastline, capturing the beauty of the setting sun—Akash's impulsive nature coming through as we enjoyed the simple joys of life.

Day 2: Kayaking Adventures at Cola Beach – Living in the Moment

We kicked off the day with a delicious breakfast at Caesar’s Café, run by two enthusiastic early teens from Tuscany. Then came the adventure—kayaking at Cola Beach, gliding through the serene backwaters. Much like the moments of reflection Sid has in the film, this experience reminded us to appreciate the beauty around us.

We ended the day at Cabo de Rama, a stunning location that Sid would have surely painted. The sunset here felt like a moment straight out of the movie—stunning, peaceful, and unforgettable.
