LIVE HAPPY lives by the simple motto that ‘Happiness Increases When Shared’. Have you not had a good laugh sitting among friends and family, on dinners together, on old school re-unions, on running into a long lost friend, on lending a smile to someone who needs it? Have you not spent time thinking afterwards, still reeling with the moments lived and the happiness shared? We at LIVE HAPPY want to spread the sheer joy of living through activities that respect and celebrate the natural and cultural heritage of Goa whilst simultaneously empowering its local residents.
We hold space, listen deeply, ask powerful questions and engage in conversations that matter. We believe that many of the issues in the world could be ameliorated once we all speak with intention and listen with attention.
