I have my office set up in Nanpura at 0S/58. It is located in one of the older parts of the city, and the building definitely has some character because of its age. I have been working out of this space for many years. My desk is usually buried under a pile of papers and different documents I need to look at. The office isn't very large at all. It’s just a small room that fits me and maybe a couple of other people if we squeeze in. There is a single window that looks out onto the street. I spend a lot of my time staring out of it when I’m thinking or taking a small break. The walls have faded over time, but I don’t really care much about decorating or painting. I like to keep everything very basic and functional. Nanpura is always busy, so there is constant noise and movement outside the door. Finding a place to park a car nearby can be a real challenge sometimes. I have some old metal filing cabinets that have been here since I started. The door has a bit of a squeak every time someone opens it. It’s a very local, neighborhood sort of place. People often stop by just to have a quick chat or to ask for some help with something. I don’t have a marketing department or anything like that. I just do my daily work from this little spot and that is enough.
