Santanu Das

Down in Rabindrapally, you can find me. My name is Santanu Das, and I’ve been working out of this spot in Suri for a long time. It’s a local neighborhood, the kind where everyone knows what’s going on. The house is tucked away in the district, and it’s where I handle all my daily business. I don’t have a big corporate office with a receptionist or anything like that. It’s just a simple room where I keep my desk and my books. Suri is a place with its own pace, and Rabindrapally feels very much like home to me. On hot afternoons, it gets pretty still around here, and you can hear the distant sounds of the town. I spend my hours going through whatever work has come in that week. I try to stay organized, but sometimes papers get a bit mixed up on the table. It’s just me doing the work, so there isn't any fancy hierarchy or big mission statement. I just take things as they come. People from around the district know where to find me if they need something. It’s a quiet life, mostly, and I prefer it that way. I’ve lived in this part of Suri for years, so I’m part of the furniture now. If you’re ever walking through Rabindrapally, you might see me sitting by the window or coming back from the market to get back to my papers.
