The Navhind Times - Goa

This is the spot for The Navhind Times over in Calangute, Goa. Specifically, we’re located at H No 2/233A in the Naikavaddo area. It’s a bit of a different vibe being a news office in a place like Goa, especially so close to the beach areas. We’ve been here for quite some time, tracking what’s happening around the state and getting the news out to people. The office is pretty simple, nothing like the big high-tech newsrooms you see on TV. It’s more of a local place where reporters come and go, and we sort out the local distribution and stories. Calangute is always moving with tourists and locals, so there is never a shortage of things to write about or look into. We just focus on the daily grind of the newspaper business. Sometimes the power goes out or the internet acts up, but we still have to get the work done. It’s a lot of sitting at desks and making phone calls to see what's going on in the neighborhood. People stop by to drop off announcements or just to chat about something they saw in the paper. We like being part of the community here. It’s a small team, and we all know each other pretty well. We aren’t trying to be fancy, just keeping the news moving through Naikavaddo and the rest of the area. It gets busy during the peak season when the town is packed, but we just keep doing our thing. The smell of old paper and the sound of the printer is just part of the everyday life for us here.
