the perfect first set of guests and vanessas birthday

there are eight rooms in mango guest house. one was vanessa and sanus till they moved to a house next door last week, one is me and annas, two of them are used as ayurvedic treatment rooms so four (now five) rooms were free for guests.

two weeks ago four english, mila, leo, matthew and hannah, arrived in mango. they had booked two rooms via booking.com at night so it was a surprise to us when they came in the morning! the next day after that doug, ben, noah and lauren i met in goa walked in mango when i was just about to go for breakfast. the next ten days we spent hanging out every day at least a few hours whenever we were home the same time. 



we explored new places by scooters with mila, leo, matt and hannah, played loads of cards with everyone: finnish and english version of bullshit, king and slave, joli (aus) and a few others. ali and sanu were the number one fans of bullshit (fin).

we celebrated vanessas birthday last wednesday: the day started with a meditation class by our friend monique from new zealand, then breakfast at coffee temple, lunch in town and chilling while vanessa had her first buddhism class with monique, elephant riding for vanessa, a scooterdrive to a lighthouse, cake and fruits at mango where also came our neighbours from mango house: 4 australian guys and swedish and russian girl. after showers we went to a big dinner at abbas, and for a couple of drinks in garden bistro. electricity went off and some of us went back to mango to chill more. most of the people from bistro followed and came with us. we sang happy birthday so many times at different places with different bunch of people. stayed up pretty late and went to meditation class at 8am.

on their last night in varkala this beautiful, smart and awesome set of guests left their lovely goodbyes in a brand new guest book we got with mila on the same day. we hung out at mangos chillout lounge or on someones terrace until all of us went to sleep.
