Art Pop Up at Goa Collective Bazaar at Hilltop, Anjuna.
The Hilltop Friday Market in Anjuna is not just a marketplace; it’s a cultural hub where the spirit of Goa’s counterculture thrives.

People approached my stall with curiosity. Some connected with the ancient motifs, while others appreciated the modern style and colours.

Experiencing the Magic of Goa Carnival 2026: A Personal Journey from an Airbnb Amidst Parades and Artistry
