Our Travel Plan

We would love to explore the South and Central Konkan range going all around the East / West of the Konkan range. The tall mountains, luscious greenery and high seas is enticing enough to explore some new road or a off-beat track...

If a girl laughs, She is a jolly person. If a man laughs, He is mannerless. If a girl talks, She is witty, If a man talks, He is a chatter-box. If a girl loves silence, She is serious. If a man loves silence, He is dull. If a girl looks at a man, She gives a glare. If a man looks at girl, He gives a stare. If a girl wears unique dress, It is a fashion. If a man does so, He is a joker. If a girl group moves 2gether, They join a company. If a man group moves 2gether, It becomes a gang. OH! HOW LUCKY GIRLS ARE, AREN'T THEY? SO SHE IS ONE OF THE LUCKY GIRL

I guess she is one of the coolest friends I have. I guess I can share anything to everything with her and she has a way out for each and every thing. She has been a real true friend and is the best of all Stay the same Princess!!

Indeed the cherry is rightly placed on the Cake! Two Pros come together and you can’t miss the best out of them. Both are in-tuned with the passion for photography and driving. Hunting out in the adventurous world, feeling the heat till sweat or may it even be chilling till ice but their zeal for traveling will never stop. Om and Anahita both are wondering people who can never stop ideating. I have been with them since 1 year and a day is never complete without them making us giggle by a freaky thought. Om, a down to earth person can talk more than what his mind says. You ask him one question about food or place and you will get a non-stop history that will always be helpful. Filled with a lot of creativity and a craze to do something different in whatever he initiates. Om is madly in love with his world of biking

Om has a sense of humour to capture and wake up the dull minds and motivate their thoughts. A reflection of the word ‘Perfection’ is what Anahita stands for. When she takes up an activity it needs to be done in the best or rather not be done. Anahita has a lot of love for nature and is very kind hearted and helpful. Born with the skills of management, this HR lady always has a special advice to offer. Anahita loves to explore new places, travel far

Hi Mam, Thousands and Thousands of words running through my mind. But you are someone whom I always admire n look up to. she is Diligent, Frank, Broadminded, Down to earth many things infact many things. Above all in office hours you are perfectionist coz u do all your work in stipulated time. You were never an HR to us ... always behaved like a friend. Tell you something personal, you are the first person in my life to encourage me. Actually you deserve every bit of praise not only from me but from everyone…. you will achieve gr8 feat ,If you continue the same way …!!! Keep rocking Mam ..!!

Happiness resides not in posessions and not in gold; the feeling of happiness dwells in the soul.
