Member Profile | Maura Da Cruz

If several years ago, one were to ask Maura where she would eventually settle down, Canada, would have been the last place that would have crossed her mind.

She nostalgically recounts the nine-day sea voyage from Dar-es-salaam to Goa, aboard the SS Kampala and the long taxi drive from Marmagoa to Saligao. Read more...



Youth


The Youth Goan Overseas Association is a subcommittee established by the GOA Vancouver. Our mission is to connect, support, and inspire Goan youth in Vancouver. We organize events year-round some of which in the past have included visits to the Downtown east side, camping trips, picnics, sporting events and various other youth get-togethers.

Our committee, in keeping with our theme, lends to a subtly informal environment as we try to mix work and play wherever possible so you may be surprised to know that we havn't officially come up with titles for any of our 7 committee members. We all work together putting in our bit and share responsibility.

Feel free to approach any of our friendly committee members, you can also tune into our upcoming events at Y-GOA, our group on facebook, or our group email: yvrgoayouth@gmail.com
