What is going to work? TEAMWORK!

We all know that teamwork is very essential to the systematic and productive working of any organisation. In fact, it is the core reason why companies flourish exponentially or falter drastically.

Companies know for a fact that team building outings and exercises help in increasing the company productivity by fostering communication and increasing team spirit. What they fail to realise is that team-building activities give them a chance to not only shape their teams to their liking but also get to know their employees on a much better level. Team shape, trust and understanding between the company and its employees is of utmost importance for the long-term growth of the firm and its members.

The town is easily accessible and the main attractions can be covered in a couple of days, with time to spare for healthy and delicious breakfasts (the Tamil people seem dedicated to chutney innovations and it�s worth it) and a spot of shopping.

Apparently, the town traded with ancient Rome and Greece and flourished under the Pandyas, till it was captured by the Cholas in the 10th century. The Pandyas took it back in the 13th century and built it up as a literary hub. Continue reading “Madurai: A Town Where History is Part of Everyday Life”

Luxury Trains in India

The Journey and The Destination

So, someone had the wicked-good idea of converting the journey, and not just the destination, into a special holiday. And thus luxury trains were born. And if any place can fully capture that awesomeness of a train journey, it has to be India, with its forests, palaces, temples, people and legends.

But not all trains are equal, so we�d like to show the green signal to the outstanding ones below. And while the carriages are distinctly designed in old-fashioned opulence, including personal butlers, they are also fitted with all the modern necessities�wifi, spa, gym etc.
