JOAN ABODE

Yes, this is it ,,,this is the place ,,,this is the JOAN ABODE. Its like a vision re-created. Circa 1995- 2001 AD, saw me visit Kerala, 6 times. And it was during those journeys, that the urge germinated to stay in such places- Places scantily populated, places with a suspended drowsy atmosphere, places with independent laterite clad villas, places cradled under those evergreen coconut leaves,,,,,,,,AND OH LA LA ,,,,5 seasons down,,,the vision has eventually sprouted. That the front view of the house where i stay, and PULSAR is our pet. We stay in the first floor. The balcony is all for myself. The foreground is again my old bungalow in Bangalore- relived. 4 coconut trees, couple of mango trees, basically amazing -shady- place. Not mention a hammock between the two coconut trees. Besides us, the bungalow houses the landlady's family, a goan dog- Billi (cant get funnier), and family of hens.

Thats the door in my room, opening on the balcony. Man, its vintage floyd. Me, floyd and the skies above.

The -abode- configuration is as follows- a living, a family/party hall, two rooms, one bath, one kitchen, and ample of balcony space. The balcony and the party hall is the best part of the deal. The structures around the house is all ground, making the balcony totally PRIVATE. Its too psychedelic in the nights.

Thats the Living room opening on to the party hall. Thats probably guests and visitors would land up. The door at the farther end opens on to my room. Also appreciate the tile roof. Man, a life time experience


We have a modest kitchen. Planning to hone the culinary skills by the time, i boot myself out of Goa.
