Rohini Vethekar

I’m Rohini Vethekar. I work out of my place in Pratiksha Nagar, specifically at A-12/228. Sion Koliwada is a lively area, it's got its own rhythm that you only understand if you live here. I started doing this because I needed something to fill my time and pay the bills. It’s not a giant office or anything like that. Just me and sometimes a bit of help from a neighbor when things get too busy to manage alone. Moving around Mumbai 400022, you see a lot of people trying to make it. I’m just one of them. My address is easy to find if you know the camp area. Some people get lost looking for Camp No. 2 because the lanes look similar, but once you’re here, it makes sense. I don’t use fancy computers for everything, a lot of my notes are still on paper in a diary. It helps me remember things better. I’ve been in Sion for a while. The building is older but it’s home and it works for what I do. People stop by to chat or ask about what I’m working on during the day. I don't have a big speech about what I do. I just do it. Every day is a bit different depending on who calls or what needs fixing. It’s a simple setup. If I’m not there, I’m probably out running errands in the local market. Life moves fast here, so I just try to keep up without making too much of a fuss.
