'Tuk-Tuk'

Shop review # 2


‘The zippy… little gift shop’ Yes, this is the tag line of this wonderful store packed with an amazing array of gift articles. Most of these quirky and cute handicrafts are made from ecofriendly material and are handmade by NGOs which work with underprivileged people.

Take a glimpse into this interesting store.
Enter 'Tuk-Tuk'


Feast to the eyes!

Varied collection

Ethnic bags...

Cotton garments too!

Amazing array

Varied fare

This store, also conducts creative workshops for kids along with Inspire Trust – a unique concept in Goa, as there are very few places which do so.

Thus I happened to visit this store with my daughter, last month on a Saturday. My daughter participated in their pompom making and decorating workshop. She got involved in this creative pursuit during the workshop, and enjoyed it thoroughly.
Art- work in progress,,,

I have done it!

This store was started by Bharati Marwaha Kumar in 2011 in an endeavor to give back to the society. She is very much passionate about this venture and is full of life!

I picked up some 'really' cool articles from this store and tried hard to resist picking up more....
My loot!

A cool fridge magnet - May God bless you.

Handmade rooster - key chain

Cool Tassels with a cute dog - made of elephant poop! Amazing...

Vegetable fridge magnets - Pea pod and brinjal

Handmade damsels to add to my doll collection.

Do visit this store and you will definitely be tempted to pick up some ‘cool’ handmade articles!

The store is conveniently located in the building, opposite to Hospicio hospital in Margao. Once cannot miss it!
The address is:
A104, 1st floor, Pereira Plaza, Opposite Hospicio Hospital 
Margao, Goa.
