#PANJIM

[@mr.n0ne]

many temples have follow that custom of free meal. Some even follow 2 times meal for every day. Anyone can have it foreigners, native.
Some temples organize it during specific festival days. In such cases, nearby people get their meal from Temple than making it in homes. It is money saver. And hygiene is not an issue.

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

Yeah! Thanks!
After that first experience we tried temple food in other places. And donated some :)
It's actually good!

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

Btw, you changed your username, right? How come?

[@mr.n0ne]

@@LifetimeTravelmates yes. trying a change. 😃.

[@mr.n0ne]

@@LifetimeTravelmates actually contributions/donations from devotees support that arrangement. but donations are not mandatory.

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

@@mr.n0ne oh, we know. But we can still afford that and if it helps feeding others who can't afford, that's good, no?

U guys Amazingly covered Panjim! 👌🏽cleanest place in India ... ♥️

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

We loved Panjim! So, yes, we loved to visit all and share it with everyone. It's funny how in other countries when they think of India they only thing of busy ND or Mumbai and also Take Mahal...or even Varanasi. But south states have so many great places too!

[@SenjaAldee]

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

thank you very much!! it is really beautiful! totally recommended!

[@dhanasrinaik8769]

Hi guys. Firstly I am very happy to have come across this vlog. It was beautiful and as a Goan I hope you enjoyed your stay in Goa. About the food at the temple, it is what we called mahaprasad. Prasad in Hindu religion means, symbolically "blessings of God”. It is a devotional offering made to god that is later shared among devotees. It is completely alright for anyone to have it. It is blessings of God.

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting and giving us this information! We really appreciate it!
And we feel much better knowing a Goan saying it's ok doing that.
Haha, as you can see on our other videos, we really enjoyed Goa (Eating around Panjim was amazing). We miss Goa so much and we can't wait to visit there again!
Thanks for coming to our channel! Come often! ;)

Hey guys what's interesting is panjim looks a little like melaka in Malaysia which also has some Portuguese influence. melaka is where yen is born. The Latin quarter looked amazing. Very cool episode guys and didn't know you all quit your jobs to do this full time. Very brave of you both. Would love to know more about your story. Keep up the great videos 😊✌

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

Thank you guys! Yeah, starting India in Goa didn't feel very challenging, haha! When we left Goa we felt the India we see in photos, etc.
Well, there is a small description in all of our videos! And we have a small 'About Us' section with more details in our website www.lifetimetravelmates.com Maybe some day we should do a live Q&A session about that! ;)

[@somendranathusgaonkar4442]

Thank you for making this video about Goa, my hometown.
Regarding that lunch at temple , I think u probably visited temple during some festival time that's why u got lunch. Many temples serve lunch like this , during their annual festival or some special occasions.
This lunch is considered sacred as a blessing of God in the form of food

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

Thank you for watching! We love Goa, and have great memories of Panjim as you can see! Specially the food!
Yeah, that temple was our first one of so many during our 6 months around South India 😍

thank God u haven't included any parts of UP and delhi

[@DiogoF.]

I think it was great you took advantage of the free food but if it was me I just wouldn't be able to eat with my hands, it would be mission impossible. Panjim and Goa in general looks so much cleaner than the rest of India and the architecture is amazing. Definitely one of the places I have to go before I die. That and Macau in China and Malaca in Malaysia. Cheers from actual Portugal. Boas viagens.

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

Obrigado! Actualitat dating with hands is not that difficult. It just took a few days and meals of practice. But we aren't as skilled as natives! :)
Thanks for watching! Next episode we'll show more of Panjim and its DELICIOUS cuisine. Stay tuned! We'd like some real Portuguese input there! ;)

[@DiogoF.]

@@LifetimeTravelmates I'll watch it for sure. I believe there are still some Portuguese influences in the cuisine too. Now in relation with eating with hands would be difficult to get used to but who knows :) Best wishes.

[@danitrip]

Creo que con el tema de la comida hay que ser en cierto modo consecuente. Es decir. El problema es el momento en el que eso se llena de turistas que "por hacer algo distinto", "por que es gratis", o simplemente por desconocimiento, eso se masifica y gente, realmente con necesidad de comer (que en la India no es poca), no pueda hacerlo, ahí sí que vería el problema. Otra cosa muy distinta es gente extranjera que tampoco tuviera para comer, creo que hay que ayudar a todos por igual.
No me malinterpretéis, no os juzgo y creo que haberlo enseñado nos ayuda a entender otras culturas, y otras situaciones para ayudarnos a reflexionar.
Un abrazo.

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

Bueno, como en otro comentario se ha dicho, el tema se salda un poco con la donación. Y no te creas que eso está lleno de gente que pasa hambre, vimos a mucha gente trabajadora y con suficiente dinero haciendo cola, en otros templos. Por lo que hablé más tarde con algunos nativos, es que la comida de templo suele ser especialmente rica (no sé si es un poco su manera de decir que todo lo gratis es bueno).
Gracias por comentar!
Un abrazo!

[@maheshnaik6684]

Having the free meal is actually a good thing for everyone... God doesn't know you are different than any of the locals.. For God you are one of us :).. if anyone has an issue is either we humans.. So if you have that apprehension recommend to put in some rupees in the donation box.. This is the money where the free food comes from.. So that takes care of your apprehension.. as regards the other humans, don't think they would bother as far as you don't snatch their share :) .. at the end lucky that you get such rare opportunities to indulge in.. That's blessed

There is nothing wrong if tourists or foreigners avail free lunch in temple or elsewhere in India. Indians are very liberal minded and there is no reason why they will mind. Rather, I would say, they welcome anyone or everyone irrespective of caste, colour, creed etc.
