Located on the border of Maharashtra and Karnataka, I visited 'Gokarna' which means 'Cows ear'. It has the most untouched expanses of beaches and pink skies that one could ever see. What makes it interesting is the cultural mix of the Kannadiga population with Maharashtrian surnames. The architecture has a distinct style that is visible in the small town and its temples. The photos document hand painted signs, patterns, elements and moments that we experienced in the sleepy town of Gokarna with its scenic beaches.
