Freelancer

I'm working as Freelancer at Flat No 8 3Rd Floor 52 A Bikramgarh Kol 32. It’s a typical Kolkata apartment building. To get to the third floor, you have to walk up some narrow stairs, which is good exercise I guess. Bikramgarh is a lively neighborhood, especially in the evenings when everyone is out. My office is basically my living room. I have a desk pushed against the wall near the window. From there, I can see the street below. It’s a bit noisy with the horns and the people talking, but I like the energy of it. I’ve been living and working here for quite a while. It’s not a big corporate setup with a receptionist or a water cooler. If I want water, I just go to the kitchen. I do various projects for people who find me online. Sometimes the work is easy and sometimes it’s a real headache. I don't have a mission statement or any of that stuff. I just try to be honest with people and get things done on time. Kolkata can be very humid, so the fan is always running at full speed. It’s a simple setup, but it’s all I need to get by. I’m just a regular person trying to earn a living without having to travel in a crowded bus every day. This flat is my home and my office, and I like it that way. It works for me.
