Canacona is a accepting place

First of all, I’m a somewhat-open minded, progressive and liberal. I purely belong to those who believe in humanity, helping nature and down to earth with open mind and doors. I am a native of Sarzora, but moved to Canacona in 2013 - few are confused to know, how did I adjust living here - my answer to date is, the community in Canacona have never made me feel as migrant of different ideology or religious sect or different in speech dialect?

Further, the government officers from Municipality to MLA at Canacona are nothing compared to Sarzora administrative personnel. Cankonkars have no ego - no pride, being down to earth and are also ready to meet and greet with open heart. However, I do agree, being a politician means sometimes you have to compromise on your principles as it is a question of sustainability v/s keeping principles and values, but as long as they are fair as human and do their best for you, they stand reasonably tall with respect close to quoted above.

If you ask me, are you from Sarzora? “Proudly Yes” - but I more proudly would say “I love Canacona” for humanity showered on me by the local community.
