The reasons were usual: monotony, office politics and low job satisfaction. It s been a year-and-a-half and he doesn t want to go back to full-time work. In office, my colleagues were my world. Now, I have the entire world, he says. He works on projects for companies across the globe. He has worked from hills, beaches, forests, including Gokarna in Karnataka, Goa, Rajasthan. He is currently working from a tiny village, Sainj, in Himachal Pradesh, after spending a month in Bir, again in Himachal. This is life. Why will I ever go back? he says.
