Off the Beaten Path (2015) : 7x14

India covers a large part of South Asia and is the second most populous country in the world. It is home to an incredibly diverse population, with thousands of ethnic groups, many religions, and hundreds of languages. The country is a federal republic made up of 28 states, with Goa being the smallest. Once a Portuguese colony, Goa was part of the Portuguese Empire for centuries before becoming part of India in 1961. Today, it is one of the country’s most prosperous regions, known for its tropical climate, lush greenery, and relaxed coastal lifestyle. With around 1.5 million residents, Goa attracts both visitors and those seeking a different way of life. Among them is Tomáš from Bratislava, who settled in India after years of travelling. He spends his summers in the mountains and winters by the sea in Goa, living a creative life connected to music and jewellery making.
