Gugulothu Ramya.

We have been here at Bhukyapandya Thanda for quite a while now. Most people around Chivemla know where the house is, it’s number 13-104. It isn’t a big fancy office or anything like that, just a regular place where we get our work done every day. Gugulothu Ramya is who runs things here. We started doing this because there was a need in the village and we figured we could help out. Some days are busier than others, especially when the weather is doing something strange. You can usually find us around the house during normal hours. We don't have a big sign or anything, but if you ask anyone in Vattikhammam Pahad where we are, they can point you the right way. It’s mostly just us working hard and trying to make sure everything is handled for the people who come by. We try to keep things simple. There isn't any complicated system here, just writing things down and making sure the jobs get finished. Sometimes we have tea and talk about what needs to be done for the next week. Life in the thanda is quiet for the most part, which suits us just fine. We don't see the need to move into a big town when everything we need is right here. It’s a local operation, and we like it that way. If you’re passing through Chivemla, you might see us out front. We just keep our heads down and work on whatever comes through. It’s been this way for years and we don't see that changing anytime soon.
