My workspace is over in Chembur, right on the Changodar Link Road. It’s very near Bhakti Bhavan, which is a landmark most people around here use to find their way. I’ve been in this particular building for a while now. It’s a busy area with trucks and cars always going past on the link road, making a lot of noise. Inside, though, it’s mostly just me working on whatever projects are currently sitting on my desk. The room isn't very large, just enough space for my equipment and a couple of extra chairs for when people visit. I don't have a big team or a fancy office setup. I prefer doing things myself so I can be sure they’re done properly. The walls are just a plain off-white, and I have a few small plants on the windowsill that I try my best to keep alive. Sometimes the dust from the road gets in through the gaps, so I’m always wiping down the tables in the morning. I started this because I wanted to be close to home and have a bit of my own schedule. It’s not a fancy office with a great view, but it serves its purpose for my daily work. I usually take a small break in the late afternoon when the sun hits the window too hard. Most of my day is spent on the phone or working through a pile of papers. It’s a local setup, nothing too complicated or flashy. I’m just a regular person trying to get through my work in this part of Chembur.
