A depressed austrian freak.

Panjim, 31-01-1995. Panjim is a nice and tranquil small city with a strong portuguese feel to it. Small surprise considering the amount of time the portuguese colonisators spent here. Hotel Republica is very centrally located and the hotel were I lodged 5 years ago when I was last in Goa. I had no complains then so it seemed a good idea to lodge there again now. A 100 Rp. for a big room with attached bathroom, the cockroaches come free of charge I believe. An austrian freak and his spaced out lady occupy the room next to mine and invited me over for a chilam party in their room. However, when the hotel boys knocked on his door demanding payment for the rent, he panicked believing it was the police and dropped his beautiful chilam on the floor and the bloody thing broke in three pieces. The result; a very depressed austrian freak....The Holy Chilam is the most prised possession in the life of a charas smoker and they all have the quiet hope that theirs has been blessed by Lord Shiva himself. They will carry their Holy Chilam everywere they go, always have it near them, within eye distance so to speak. So you might understand why the poor chap was so depressed.
