After breakfast, many Goans take a nice walk on the beach or through green fields, saying hello to neighbours and enjoying the sun. It’s a time for friendly talks that make everyone happy.

Afternoons in Goa 

When it’s afternoon time, it’s time for a tasty Goan lunch. People eat rice, fish curry, and vegetables. Families eat together, talk, and laugh.After a big meal, many Goans take a nap.
