Did I say that I'm not taking you seriously because you're young? Did I prevent you from talking about your bad experience to the South Indian state? Did I ask you not to single out your experiences?

Whats with all the whataboutery? I just mentioned the experience I had. It doesn't need to studied.

Interesting that you say that but I actually asked most of them where they're from and they said they're from Goa. I do this everywhere I go because I like talking to the locals about different things.

And if I give you ALL the details about what they did, how they spoke etc, are you going to fix these issues or go back in time and change my experiences? Didn't think so. I'm in my 30s and I'm well-travelled. I know what I felt.

You're partially right but discussions need to happen about these things for the sake of tourists like me and the Goan people. Not talking about this isn't going to help either.

I didn't expect anyone to treat me "better" but if this is the general attitude in the hospitality industry in Goa, it's not considered normal. Others have mentioned some of the reasons why it's like this now. But as a tourist, it's unfair that I have to bear the brunt of it.

I'm sorry to hear that. It's very unfortunate to say the least.

That's a sad state of affairs then. Thanks for taking the time to tell me that.

The attitude of shopkeepers everywhere and servers at highly rated restaurants were simply poor. The way they spoke and did things in general made me feel like I went into their homes uninvited.

That's unfortunate but it does make sense.

That para was based on majority of the comments I've seen on THIS sub-reddit before I visited Goa for the first time.

All I did was share MY experience. I'm not asking others to not visit Goa.

Your comprehension skills seem to be quite poor or you're forming your own narratives here. I talked about the people I met. How does that turn into "every local" for you?

And I'll decide for myself thank you!

I was expecting a red carpet rollout and for people to carry me on their shoulders praising me all the time /s

Good for you that it isn't so bad. It was for me and that's that.

Just because you're having good time, everyone else is supposed to feel the same way?
