Abhinandan Tiwari

My name is Abhinandan Tiwari and you can find me at Shiv Market. I’m on the first floor, shop numbers 23 and 24. Sector 11 is a decent place to be, though the parking downstairs can be a real headache sometimes. I’ve spent a lot of time in this market. The stairs up to the first floor are a bit steep, so I usually take them slow in the morning. My shop is basically two rooms knocked together. One side is where I keep all the supplies and the other is where I sit and talk to customers. It’s not very fancy. The walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but I haven’t gotten around to it yet. I like being in Shiv Market because there’s always something happening. You hear the vendors downstairs and the traffic on the main road. It makes the day go by faster. I’ve got a small stove in the back to make some chai when the afternoon slump hits. Most people who come here are regulars who have been coming for years. They know I’m not about any corporate talk. I just tell them how it is. It’s a simple life, running a shop in Sector 11. I plan on staying here as long as the market stays standing. There is always someone dropping in for a chat or to get things done, which keeps me busy enough.
