Even today the best residential properties and the best hotel rooms are considered to be the sea-facing ones.

It was back in school that we all learnt, ‘Man is a social animal’. In the due course of human evolution, we have always lived in groups, forming communities and eventually setting up various social structures and institutions in our society. A deadly virus has hit the very basis of our social life and has forced us to follow ‘Social Distancing’. However, we humans are just not made to distance ourselves from each other and cannot ever live an isolated life. Until an effective drug or a vaccine against the Coronavirus is clearly in sight and reaches out to everyone across the globe, it goes without saying, Social Distancing or rather more appropriately Physical Distancing is going to be the new normal for all of us. By now, we have all come to realise that unlike in B.C. and A.D. until the beginning of this year, life will be defined and chronicled in B.C. (Before Corona) and A.C. (After Corona) hereafter. With some experts claiming that the virus is here to stay and we got to learn to live with it, will life post-lockdown be really manageable or will it be unimaginable? Or who knows, it may even take us by surprise by being unimaginably manageable!
