A bit overdue. Back in Feb this year I visited India for a month. I wasn't hoping to get laid there at all really. It is, you know, India... But I booked Goa into the trip because I read good things.
First, don't go to India in general for the girls. I think this goes without saying. Unless you are rolling with upper class Indians all the time, there are almost no hot Indian chicks. Not my type anyway.
I was getting with girls from the hostels I was staying at in the rest of India, but that doesn't really count. Just go to SEA and stay in hostels if you want that, probably better from what I've heard.
But Goa is worth writing about. Fuck I had a crazy eight days there. It is where a lot of Indians go to party, like their Las Vegas, sort of. The place is full of foreigners.
Hippies. Vagabonds. Backpackers. Goa Trance music is everything here. Beach parties every night somewhere where everyone is high or drunk. People fucking on the beach. That's the vibe. If you want a Different Out of the Ordinary experience, head to Goa. It's nuts.
To frame my experience: 20y/o Aussie bloke, I spent about $500AUD all up while I was there including price of the room (8 days), I stayed at The Prison hostel which I recommend highly. I was 10 minute walk from the beach.
I also hate electronic music. I entered the nightlife scene in Medellin where I lived for a bit and love latin music, chilling with a girl and spitting Spanish game, the salsa/merengue-->bachata-->reggaeton-->hotel progression. Totally opposite to Goa. So I was a fish out of water there.
I was walking around at these dance parties with everyone around me OFF THEIR FUCKING FACES while I was stone cold sober. Weird.
If you like that music you're in for a treat, otherwise, it's game as usual. There are some cool non-trance clubs which I'll mention, but generally the whole place is designed to get you fucking if your logistics are good.
Logistics:
1) Just stay somewhere in Anjuna beach. It's a great location. (Full moon) beach parties at Curlies are sick (http://curliesgoa.com/), and there are bars all along Anjuna beach. People come in from other parts of North Goa to party in Anjuna.
As I said, I got a private room in a hostel - why would you stay in a dorm? You're expecting to pull most nights, if not every night. Worth it. Set me back about $25AUD a night if I remember correctly.
2) Get a scooter. Hire a scooter for $5 or less a day. They are fucking incredible. Most of the people in Goa are cheap as fuck, and won't spend this small amount on a scooter. Having one is SO convenient. But, dangerous.
You can buy petrol in used bottles from shops on the side of the road.
I wore my helmet a couple of trips, but nobody wears their helmet in Goa. With a scooter your logistics are going to be EASY, taxis SUCK and are expensive in goa so once a chick hears you've got a scooter, boom done deal. Also good for day trips.
Funny story I took a weed edible in the morning with a few others from the hostel. Then I forgot I took it. Drove really far on the scooter (30 mins) to a market, then just as I arrived I felt the weed start to hit. I freaked the fuck out and sped back to the hostel. Every minute I was getting more high, and it was a race against time to get back before I was driving HIGH. Got back safe, but my last 5 mins on the scooter were really fucking dangerous.
Otherwise, you're gonna be walking everywhere. Which is okay because places are close, but fuck it's annoying.
During the day WHAT TO DO:
1) Chill at the beach. Water is WARM. It's amazing. People come up to sell shit to you. I had some old dude clean out my ear, pretend to have pulled out rocks and charge me $10 for the service. Oh yeah... SCAMS ARE EVERYWHERE IN INDIA. Don't give people shit. But it's chill.
2) Take drugs, drink with people you meet. Alcohol from stores is cheap.
3) Shopping is terrible. Basically just tons of identical cheap clothing and jewelry stores. Indians are scam artists, so be careful about overpaying. Don't trust anyone. They won't hurt you, but they'll be happy to take your cash.
That said, I bought a few dope Ganesh t-shirts for $4AUD which get heaps of compliments here. Also get some Ali Baba pants, they are INCREDIBLE after-sex garments. Trust me on this one. Load up.
4) fuck
5) Drive around on your mo-ped and explore. 10/10 recommend. India is fucked up and it'll blow your mind.
Where to go out AT NIGHT:
Saturday night - Go to the Saturday Night Flea Market in Arpora. It's buzzing.
The craziest hippies you will ever meet all congregate here.
They have a couple of open air dance floors higher up, where all the music is coming from. I believe it is pretty good some other days too, but check with some locals to be sure.
Food stalls from all over the world. It is fucking insane.
My first time here I picked up an Italian/Indian/South African Nightlife Princess/Model. This girl was a 10 if I've ever seen one. We spent the night club hopping, she knew everywhere to go, and knew all the club owners. Fuck, she should be writing this datasheet. An unbelievable night. She probably bought me $50 worth of drinks, I'm just realising now. LOL We were both 20 at the time, and it was one of the best nights of my life.
My second time here I was with these three girls (NYC/Moroccan/Nebraskan) who I met earlier that evening near our hostel who were studying in some shithole Indian city and there for a couple of days break. I'm getting along great with the Nebraskan (hot blond lesbian (found out later) hippie traveller) and Morrocan, but the Georgian background NYC girl is in her own world. I had my flight out that evening at 3am and had to be in a taxi there by 2am.
Eventually I split off with the smoking hot NYC girl for a few minutes as we walk off to wander around a bit, and really this is the first time we are speaking together. My game is unusually tight for the few minutes we're talking. It's 11pm and I just tell her straight up: "My flight leaves in a couple of hours, and I don't have a room at the hostel but my bags are there, so I LITERALLY CAN'T fuck you BECAUSE THERE IS NOWHERE TO DO IT, but I would love to fuck the shit out of you". Next thing you know we are fucking in someone elses dorm room bed at my hostel after a 10 min scooter ride (smooth), and people are walking into the room, so we have to move a few times around the hostel. Awkward, but hot.
This is to say that despite it being hippie vibes and all, there are some seriously hot girls, and you should plan on spitting some mad club game even though it's a flea market.
Basically - confirms my scooter recommendation - mainly international crowd you're going for here obviously - at the flea market, approach like crazy, there are so many people moving around everywhere, and so much crazy stuff to make passing comments on that if you can't get laid here, you have zero game.
Curlies AND Shiva Valley (right next to each other located on Anjuna beach)
Goa trance is crazy here. Everyone is high and drunk. If you like to dance, dance. But it's NOT NOT NOT the sort of dancing where you approach girls. People dance by themselves to this music.
I recommend getting some smokes/drinks and hitting the beach directly in front of the clubs and approaching in a cool passive manner. The vibe is chill but hardcore partying at the same time - it's weird. If you are at the bar in curlies, try and hit on girls ordering drinks, as usual.
I approached a real fly REDhead Montreal girl with a cheap cigar at the bar. She thought he cigar was a nice touch. Her brother (who was totally cool with me) and a couple of other French guys joined us and the conversation switched to French - of which I speak none.
Excluded. French Guys - 1, Me - 0.
They were massive cockblocks and wouldn't leave us.
She told me she wanted to fuck me on the beach (go for it in Goa!) after a couple of hours hanging out, but these dumb fucking drunk French guys were white knighting and wanted to 'protect' her from my smooth self and eventually fucked me off. Oh well. Beware the cockblockers here -- BECAUSE, it's so easy to get lost and feel alone at these trance parties. Not much mingling happens on the dance floor, so people don't want to leave people they're with to go hang out alone, it's easy to get lost.
Took a loss that night, but still had fun partying till the sun came up.
Isolate hard here, there's lots of opportunity for venue switches all along Anjuna beach, and inside the clubs (upstairs/downstairs).
Hilltop, Vagator
Rocked up here at like 4am with a bunch of dudes who wouldn't get away from me and my buddy from the hostel. I get the sense this would have been a really dope party earlier in the night, but by 4am there were people who had been up dancing for HOURS solo and the vibe was a little 'time to go home'. Can't say much, but heard good things.
Club Cabana
I came here a couple of times and it fucking rocks. There is an R&B area inside (thank god. I was over the endless trance shit) - and surprisingly a bit of reggaeton. I was in my element here. If I hadn't had such success at that fucking flea market of all places, this would be my #1 spot.
I came with a big group from the hostel (with my trusty scooter of course), once on LADIES night, where girls don't pay for anything or somethine, and once on a normal night. If I remember correctly, on ALL nights, once you pay the $20AUD cover charge (1000 rupees) you drink for free. Unlimited drinks inside... it's crazzzyyy and there are soo many drunk girls.
Again, a big Russian hub. Russians everywhere, although one local source tells me that 95% of the Russian girls that come to Goa are pros (in Russia). Not sure about that stat from my experience, but the Russians that do come here are mostly shady as fuck. Luckily my height, cheeky grin, and very basic Russian got me out of trouble with a few aggressive Russian chumps on whose girls I was macking.
Girls here are pretty hot, at least the foreign ones, but unfortunately there were a lot of normal middle class Indian girls when I went, which watered down the pool of hotties.
Club cabana is great. If you're in Goa you've got to visit. My recommendation is to get a couple of drinks from the bar (they're free once you pay cover, yep), and pretend to look for your friend, sit next to a hot girl and tell her she can have your friends drink since you can't find them.
Alternatively normal caveman game or 'get them drunk on free drinks game' works wonders.
Funny story: one time in the R&B section I had 3 tall blonde girls (Brit, Canadian, Aussie) didn't know each other otherwise)) with me dancing who were from the hostel. The social proof was off the charts. Young suave blond aussie bloke surrounded by 3 blondes in the middle of an indian packed club. I got approached by 3 girls in ~15 minutes I KID YOU NOT. It was a massive anomaly in The Game for me, since I'm not usually surrounded by 3 blondes, as I roll solo a lot, and don't have a entourage of female friends. I couldn't believe how girls throw themselves at you if you have other girls with you. An interesting moment for me.
The resulting recommendation is meet some backpackers from hostels before you hit up Club Cabana and roll with them on down, and stay with your group and bounce around doing approaches.
Another recommendation, try and approach the Russian GROUPS. They should let you in if you're cool and try to practice your Russian. Then ask to go dance and pull away the hot one. Isolate hard here. Good thing is there are lots of 'hiding spots' and nooks and crannies so to speak, in case you need to escape the wrath of the jealous Russian guys or just finger a girl in the corner. I also recommend scoping out the place for 15-30 minutes when you arrive to get to know the cool spots and get familiar with the club - it's big.
Summary
Goa is mad. I'm going back, next time for a couple of months or more. The partying and lawlessness make the place hectic. No police ANYWHERE. Let me know how you go there![[Image: wink.gif]](https://rooshvforum.network/images/smilies/wink.gif)
