Bernado,
Don't you think the local tourist economy in Goa is
benefitting from the influx of these foreigners?  So
what if they are lounging away from their cold
winters?  Isn't it better that they come to Goa than
take their money elsewhere?  Who in Tenerife is asking
them to get out?  Certainly not those who make their
living from tourism.  Do I detect a little xenophobia
here?  From someone who lives abroad?  Pretty ironic
I'd say.
