Amit Pardeshi

I’m Amit Pardeshi and I live in Sangamner. My house is number 430 and we call it "Ashish". It is tucked away in Devi Lane, which is a place I’ve known since I was a kid. Sangamner is in the Ahmednagar district and it is a nice place to live if you don't like the constant rush of a place like Mumbai. I run things from my home because it’s easier and I can stay connected to the community here. The pin code is 422605 in case anyone is sending mail. I don't have a fancy office with a sign out front. Most people just know where I live and they come by if they need to talk. I do my work in a small room at the back of the house where it’s quiet. My family has been in Maharashtra for generations, so we have deep roots here. I don’t believe in using big words to sound important. I’m just Amit, and I try to help out where I can with my work. Sometimes the internet is a bit slow out here, but we manage to get things done eventually. Devi Lane is a friendly spot where everyone looks out for each other. I spend my days balancing my work and my personal life, which isn't always easy but it is worth it. I like the local pace of things. It’s honest and real, just like the people who live here. It is home for us.
