I guess the Goa you know depends on who you are - how old, to begin with. And then where you are from; and exactly what you have in mind, when you intend to visit.

To a whole lot of temporarily/permanently single Indians (mainly from the North, but South as well), especially over the past couple of decades, Goa equals a Holi-like extended license for carefree, round-the-clock boozy behaviour - exactly what you think of, when you hear, say, Ibiza, Vegas, Thailand, etc.
