Nirmala Travels

If you look for 3-59 in the SC Colony area of Wardhannapet, you’ll find our little office for Nirmala Travels. It’s not much to look at from the outside, but the phone rings pretty much all day long with people asking about bus times or if there’s a car available for a trip to the city. We spend a lot of our time sitting at the wooden desk checking the schedules and making sure the drivers know where they are supposed to be. Sometimes the roads are bad or a vehicle needs a quick fix, so things don't always go exactly to plan, but we try to manage. The neighborhood is quiet mostly, except for when the morning buses start up. We’ve lived and worked around Wardhannapet for a long time, so we know most of the shortcuts and the people who travel frequently. It’s mostly just us trying to keep the logs straight and making sure the keys are where they should be. There’s a small fan that rattles in the corner and a calendar on the wall that we use to mark down the dates. We don’t do a lot of fancy advertising because word of mouth usually does the job well enough around here. People just drop by the house or call the mobile when they need to get somewhere, and we see what we can do to help them out with their travel.
