Lawyer by training, currently in-house counsel at a mid-sized media company. Twenty-seven, four years in Mumbai, and this is what I do on the days the office life makes me feel like a small grey ghost. Two evenings a week, very specific clients, and a small list of repeat bookings I have built carefully.
My evenings are unhurried. I show up looking like I am meeting an old friend at the hotel bar - because that is exactly the energy I want the room to have. We will talk, we will probably eat, and the rest of the evening will look like whatever evening you wanted it to look like. Three hours minimum.
For clients looking through the VIP companion listings for someone with a real day job and a real life, I am that. Booking 48 hours in advance, polite intro, no last-minute calls, and please be discreet on text - I share an office with eleven other people and they read each other is screens.
