Kethavath Rajagopal

Living out here in Mundali Thanda, you get used to a certain kind of quiet. My house number is 3-272, and that is where I do most of what I need to do. People know me as Kethavath Rajagopal. This place is a bit tucked away, so it is not like you have people walking past the door every single minute. The air is a bit fresher here than it is closer to the main towns. I have been in this thanda for a long time and I know almost every family living nearby. My setup is very basic. I have a small room where I keep my things and a couple of chairs for anyone who comes by to talk. Sometimes I sit outside under the tree when the sun is too much inside the house. There isn't much in the way of big shops around here, so we usually have to travel a bit if we need something specific. Most days I am just taking care of regular things, nothing very exciting. Life here follows the seasons. When it rains, the roads get a bit muddy and we stay inside more. When it’s dry, everyone is out and about. I don't really have a big story to tell. I just live here and do my part. It is a small place, but it is home and it is where I handle all my business and daily life without any grand plans.
