I'm in South Goa now and I like it. It's quieter and less developed than North Goa with less touts which is nice. I arrived without a hotel which was a mistake because I arrived late and I had to rely on a taxi driver. A taxi driver will get you a hotel but it won't be the cheapest or of good quality. I mean, the place is cheap and well placed but poor quality, if I had organised something I could have got cheaper and better placed and good quality. Lesson learned.
The day after arriving I arranged alternatived accomodation which I move into tomorrow morning. The guy told me that I was lucky that he had a room at all, did I know it was almost Christmas? I did but I didn't realise that it was only two weeks away. Anyway, he has a basic room for 350 rupees which is less than half what I pay for my current room, and then on the 21st a flat becomes available with television and some basic cooking arrangements and a fridge. The flat will cost 700rps a night but no problem if it is good quality and it will be great for Christmas!
