If you have ever dreamed of buying a piece of land in Malabar Hill, one of the poshest localities in the world, your dream is about to come true.

Wellness homes at Serein is located just next to the greenery of Yeoor Hills and Sanjay Gandhi national park which
will give you a feeling of a world far from hustle bustle of the city but still well connected to all things human. Shopping complexes, malls, schools, hospitals are at a proximity of Serein. Numerous garden and parks are at a walking distance from Serein. The area is at a close proximity to Ulhas river and Upvan lake. The railway station is hardly 10 minutes from your home. Isn't Serein an address to take pride in? It certainly looks like a home that is bound to make a legacy.

Serein's location, Pokhran Road 2 is aptly being called as Malabar hill of Thane as it is surrounded by the greenery, has a beautiful hill view, which is similar to that of the Malabar Hills. Serein has the luxury and affluence of the Malabar Hills, thanks to uber premium amenities it has. Pokhran Road can technically be called the Malabar hills as well due to an interesting similarity between their pin codes. Malabar hill's pin code is 400006, while Pokhran road's is 400610. How about that? Interesting right. 

Where did you travel for spending New Year's Eve?

Spending New Year's Eve in a place far from hustle bustle of the city with family and friends is my idea of New Year's Eve. I consider myself fortunate enough to work in a company which has annual winter shut down from Christmas to the 1st day of new year. I don't have to take leaves and I can plan without thinking about how to ask my boss for it.

Watching sunrise in Kanyakumari

Kanyakumari is known for its spectacular view of sunrise and sunset. There are many places for the tourists to view this magic. Kanyakumari tourism dept has built up a number of sunrise and sunset view points. This way the crowd gets divided among these points and one can watch the phenomenon in peace. The hotel which I was staying in, Hotel Singaar International, had its own viewpoint. Luckily, we had our rooms on the same floor. I made sure I put up multiple alarms to wake up at least 15 minutes before sunrise, choose my spot and prepare my tripod.
