Living in Pune starting in January - Best time to have visitors?

Hey,
    Welcome to India and especially Pune. The time you'll be in Pune the climate would be amazing. There aren't much festivals during that time but in March you'll be experiencing Holi which is known as the festival of colours.
    There's a meditation centre in Pune called OSHO ASHARAM. Many foreigners from all around the world visit this place. Other than that there are places where you can go for treking or bike rides.
Amazing food, Irani cafes for breakfast and good places to hangout for drinks.
    Where would you be working? and staying?
If you need any help feel free to ask.

Regards,
Ravi

Ravijangir,

Thank You for your kind response.  I will be working mostly in the Pimpri area, but staying in the Kalyani Nagar neighborhood.

I am looking forward to the nice weather and seeing Pune.  I will be there in about 11 days.

Hi,
    Welcome to India, wish you a pleasant stay here.  I was staying in Pune for 2 years, not very far from Kalyani Nagar.  Now I am working in Bangalore. 

    Kalyani Nagar is really a good place to live.  You can find number of ways to spend quality time.  You have pubs and bars including Hard Rock Cafe nearby.  You have a mall, and as mentioned by Ravi, Osho International centre is the biggest attraction.  City centre is only 5 KMs from there.  Airport is close by, and so many other positives.   

       There are many touristic spots near Pune that you can cover over the weekend.  For example Mumbai, Shridi, Ajanta Ellora.  If you are planning a week trip with your husband you can consider Goa.  North Goa is party place, numerous pubs, discotheques, water sports and crowded beaches.  South Goa is serene.  A place to relax and chill out.  Palolem is a must watch if you go to south.  Palolem is full of foreign tourist that you wont feel it like India.   I was there in October and enjoyed my stay. 

      Take care.  Enjoy your stay.

Cheers

Hello,

You may go to Mahabaleshwar which is 4 hr. travel from Pune.
Lavasa is one of the good option.
