Chances are you may not.

Whatever you strike out or tick in, start something new this year. We provide you with some tempting options to set you off on a little adventure across Goa and further afield.

Staying on travel, if you are on a budget and looking for a pocket easy option turn to our In Transit page. There’s a new place that you could try.

If big ambitions seem daunting, small resolutions could make up—like cutting down on your sugar or watching less of TV or even taking up gardening. Our diet page always has new health tips for you to get you on the right track. We have the latest gardening trends too.

In keeping with the spirit of the new, those looking to expand their international horizons through education especially in Australia, our career page features immigration lawyer Rashmi Patil.

Bringing the mix to a boil are our features on beach soccer, the travails of lifeguards on our beaches and an indepth and revealing talk with an award winning costume designer.
