The village is actually very small, consisting of 4 primary lanes and a small market. Very notable are the houses and temples- the scale, material and even construction techniques being indigenous and self-sufficient. Also the small canals- a well thought element, built about 200 years ago, and still as effective.
We lived in a place called 'Punyayi'. And Vartak aajoba, who owns the place, is one interesting character to say the least.

Darpana, you stirred my memories of my birthplace, Konkan, even with few words and photographs. I spent my formative age at my native village, Katta, Malvan, and aquired many life-supporting skills. They help me till now.
Best wishes,
Remi
