We live in Ponda (फोंडा) Goa, my grandfather lived in तळकट near Sawantwadi-Maharashtra; but our ancestral home, where our great-grandparents lived, is at गुळदुवे.
I visited this home for the first time in life at the age of 29.. and immediately fell in love with it. It has everything you could expect to find in any typical house in Konkan: countless rooms interconnected through myriad passages, huge almirahs made of teakwood, झोपाळा, पाट and... a giant banyan tree almost a century old.
I wish I had visited this place earlier, and I hope I visit it more often in future.
