My workspace is over in Sanpada, specifically in the Viceroy Park complex. It’s a nice spot at A-201, right on Plot No.3 in Sector-18. Being near Palm Beach Road is great because you get a bit of that sea breeze, which makes the Mumbai heat a little more bearable. Viceroy Park is a pretty well-known building in the area, and it’s a mix of people living there and a few small offices like mine. It feels more like a home than a stiff business environment. The office is mostly just one main room with a big window that looks out toward the sector. I spend a lot of time here working through papers and taking calls. It’s quiet enough that I can actually focus, which isn't always easy to find in this part of the city. I’ve got a couple of bookshelves that are overflowing and a desk that usually has several half-finished cups of coffee on it. It’s a personal space, not something designed by an architect. In the evenings, Palm Beach Road gets really busy with people out for walks or driving by, but inside A-201, it stays fairly peaceful. Sanpada is a good place to be based because it’s connected to everything but doesn't feel as frantic as the main city hubs. I’ve been in this sector for a bit now and I’ve gotten used to the local routine. Whether it’s the sound of the elevator or the birds in the park nearby, it’s just my daily reality.
