Through my Lens - Saligao, Goa

Every Sunday I will attempt to post a photo blog titled 'through my lens'.  Hope guys enjoy the new feature.

A hamlet in North Goa, Saligaon is lush with coconut trees, paddy fields, antique furniture/ ware sellers and friendly locals.  It is now an upcoming place for apartment rentals if one wished to stay near the happening spots of North Goa, yet enjoy serenity and laid back atmosphere.  These photos were clicked on my trip to Goa in March where we had rented an apartment in Saligaon.
