Uniqua Gift

Uniqua Gift is my small shop located at number 131 in Mani Bhavan. It is quite close to Gurunanak School here in Sion, so we get a lot of students coming in during their break or after classes. I opened this place because I wanted to have a shop in my own neighborhood. The shelves are usually packed with all sorts of things like greeting cards, small toys, and various items that people buy for birthdays or special days. It can get a bit cluttered because I keep adding new things whenever I find something interesting at the wholesale market. The lights in the shop are a bit dim in the back, but people do not seem to mind. Being near the Jain temple means it is usually a peaceful area until the school bell rings. I spend most of my day sitting behind the counter, chatting with the regulars who live in the nearby buildings. Some days are slow and I just read the paper or organize the stationery. I do not use any fancy computer systems for my sales. I just write everything down in a big ledger book. It is a simple way to run a business. I like seeing people find a nice little something for their friends. It makes the long hours in the shop feel worth it.
