My place is over at B-30/6 in Bibwewadi, right in the middle of the Gobind Pura Market. It’s a very local kind of area where everyone knows everyone else’s business. I’ve been operating out of this market space for quite some time now. It’s not a huge office, just a small room where I handle my daily work. The market outside is always noisy with vendors calling out and people haggling over prices. It’s a bit of a walk from the main road, but most folks around Bibwewadi know the way to Gobind Pura. I usually get in around mid-morning and stay until the evening shadows start stretching across the pavement. There’s a lot of routine involved in what I do here. Sometimes I’m just sitting with a ledger, and other times I’m talking to people who drop by for a chat or some help. The walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but it feels like home to me. I don’t use any fancy technology, just the basics to get the job done. Being in a market means there’s always a good tea stall nearby, which is a plus. It’s a simple life, working in the same neighborhood where you see the same families growing up over the years. I just take things one day at a time, keeping the shop open and doing what needs to be done without making a big deal of it.
