<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>'Susegad' is a Konkani word that has no exact translation in English. Goans use it to convey the sense of contentment, fulfilment, and relaxation that everyone associates with Goa and its culture. Clyde D'Souza, bestselling author and proud Goan, shows us the wonderful, unique elements that help Goans achieve susegad, and what you can do to add a pinch of this magic to your life, no matter where you live. <p/> As Clyde takes us on a journey through Goa's beautiful beaches, lush greenery, exquisite cuisine, mix of Portuguese and Konkani culture, its history, festivals, music, and architecture, you'll learn what makes Goans tick and how they've created habits and routines that lend happiness and calm to their lives. Interviews with noted Goans, short stories, recipes, and pictures in this book bring out what it means to be Goan, and help you find your own susegad.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Follow bestselling author and proud Goan Clyde D'Souza as he guides you through the wonderful, unique elements that help Goans achieve susegad -- and add this magic to your life, no matter where you live" ―<i>Daiji World</i> <br> </p><br><br>"For those visitors who want to go beyond the beaches and the bars, and explore those little village ways that still exist.
