Software professionals KP Mathivanan and his wife K Sugapriya are glad they could pause the mad bustle of city life for one whole year
For the past one year, Chennai-based IT professional KP Mathivanan has been working remotely from Theni, a provision that has transformed his weekends. He revisits hangouts — Kumbakarai Falls, Sothuparai dam and Kailasanthar temple on a hilltop among others — that would define leisure for him before he shifted to Chennai for work. Last June, Mathivanan, his wife K Sugapriya (also an IT employee, now on remote work) shifted to Theni along with their two-year-old daughter, as their respective companies allowed them to work from anywhere. Both the IT professionals feel their lives have suddenly been enriched by the company of relatives and friends and the energising air of the countryside. Not to mention, the absolute lack of junk food.More Related News
