This autobiography documents the obstacles he had to overcome, the choices he made, the chances he took and his fascinating journey starting with his dignity of labour from his first job as a helper in an iron nails manufacturing workshop, to the Head of Security of the world's only seven star hotel the Burj Al Arab and to his present day position as Corporate Director of Security & Surveillance of Advani Hotels & Resorts India Ltd. This book is not to be missed and a must read for all Goans and to all those who unfortunately fall in the outsiders category to know the reality of Goa and Goans.
This is not a story of sudden success, but of patience and sacrifice. He writes not as a historian, but as a humble witness, a child of the land, seeking to preserve stories, lessons, and lives before they fade. In the end, it is simply the story of a man who refused to forget where he came from.

This is the authors first book. He was born in Portuguese Goa at the sunset of the Portuguese Empire in 1959 before the liberation of Goa in 1961 that literally made him eligible for a Portuguese Passport but he chose his birth place come what may. He is currently working as the Corporate Director of Security & Surveillance of Advani Hotels and Resorts India Ltd. He wishes to retire soon to rest in the lap of his village, surrounded by his wife, the laughter of his grandchildren and the company of his loved dogs and cats. You will then find him any day, on his motorcycle, painting the town red, looking for an adventure, going fishing or telling stories, passing down culture, history and folklore to next generation.
