An insight into the life of another Goan migratory community -- the Goans of Aden. Keith Vaz was born there, and so were Lynn Mario and Eric. 
In this video, a professor from Brazil and an engineer in Goa, reminisce about their days and times in Aden. The history and geography of the region. Why it had close connections with "British India" and migration from Goa. Also, a brief look at the Goan community there, how different it was from Goan diasporas in the rest of the Persian Gulf, East Africa, Karachi, the Indian subcontinent. Some unexpected stories -- encountering Dhirubhai Ambani (and his Aden connection) and how Eric married a young Goan lady without known that she too had roots in Aden.
