Where I am from
Patan is all brick and narrow courtyards. Someone is always drying
chillies on a rooftop, someone else is always shouting across a lane.
It is loud in a way I find calming.
I grew up here and I still live here. It is not a glamorous backdrop.
It is just mine.
02
Why I do this
Because it pays properly and I answer to nobody. I looked at the jobs
available to a woman my age here, did the arithmetic, and chose this
instead. Nobody pushed me into it and nobody manages me.
I treat it like the business it is. My own calendar, my own records,
my own rules.

How I work
I start when I say I will start. I do not take a second call while I
am on yours. I do not save your number under your real name, and I do
not talk about one person to another.
My limits are written further down this page so nobody has to guess.
Anyone who argues with them does not get a second booking.
