Ramachandrappa M

My name is Ramachandrappa M and you can find my place over in Jeevanahalli. We are at number 26 on the 1st Cross, right by Ragavappa Garden. It is a narrow street so if you are driving a big car you might have some trouble getting all the way to the door. Most people just walk or use a scooter. I have been in this neighborhood for a long time and I’ve seen the trees in the garden grow quite tall over the years. My building is nothing special to look at, just a plain concrete structure that stays relatively cool in the summer heat. Inside, I keep things pretty simple. There is a desk, some chairs, and a lot of things I’ve collected over time. I don't really have a set schedule but I’m usually here from about nine in the morning until the sun starts to go down. People stop by to see me for all sorts of reasons, mostly local folks from around the garden area. We talk about the weather or the news while we get through the work. It’s a small operation and I like it that way because I don't have to answer to anyone but myself. Sometimes the neighborhood dogs get a bit loud, but you get used to it after a while. It’s just a normal life in a normal part of town.
