Thanks

Goa has many coastal 'resorts' in both north and south Goa; you would need to know which place the man was employed (all shacks are closed/dismantled now) in order that anyone could help.

( We live outside of Goa).

Others may be reluctant to interfere.

I wasn't aware of this particular Goa problem but these things happen the world over. I see so many ancient (and I mean ancient) guys in certain South East Asian countries hooking up with 20something girls who lure. Of course folks don't seem to bat an eyelid when it's a bloke getting ripped off by a gal. Funny that.

Strangers speculating on her 'passionate sex' and gullibility, yes she'll be really grateful :lol:

OP, having made your concerns known to her, I suggest you've done your best and should leave it at that, what is organizing spying missions going to achieve?

She is an adult. It is her business - and no one else's. Unless you want to take the line, common in some cultures, that your honour depends on the "purity" of your womenfolk

I think if someone close to you is possibly 'making a fool of herself' you might be concerned.

In the 'society' concerned not "culture" (whatever that means) "honour" is no different to anywhere else, in that is purity is always there (if she can hide the past or he turns a blind eye !!!).

OK, be like the Muslims and keep your women locked up.

Plenty of Muslims in Goa and surrounding states where the particular situation of this thread is happening. Most don't keep their women locked up.

That is what I meant by querying your use of the word "culture". It is a strange concept held by Western people, that those peoples of the East are all alike. Like the Pontipines on CBeebies:lol:
