Snapshots - meet Vikki (by Joe)

This is Vikki.

He works in our beach bar/ hotel in Palolem, Goa.

This is his first season working in Goa. He is from Mumbai and left his wife and two sons there whilst he came south to find work for 6 months.

He used to work in IT sales in Mumbai. "The money satisfied, but the work didn't" he says, and he had to work long hours (8am - 8pm). Though he misses his family he much prefers working on the beach.

He is 32 and his birthday is 12th September (the day before Laura's).

His English is reasonably good and he has a very (very) mild character. Despite (or perhaps in part because of) the occasional slip up with our food and drink orders, we've grown very fond of him.
