Original landowners of the entire Vaddo, the Nazareth home stands proud on the banks of the River Zuari and is known and admired by all North Goans. The vibrant sounds of the Vaddo can be heard in the occasional grunting of pigs, barking of dogs and iconic songs of Lorna Cordeiro streaming on the radio.
