We know that some of us would be away from our homes, our loved ones and friends. Don’t feel bad and simply go on a movie or a series marathon and enjoy whatever drink and food you like. Tucked in comfortably in your bed, watching some good cinema and enjoying some good food & drinks is not that bad a way to ring in the New Year, okay!
