When he turned 37, Satyajit ‘Toto’ Lahiri, “without family encumbrances” and no children, found himself “truly alone.” The past two years had been gruelling.

He thought, “When I’m 64 and my most productive and active years are behind me, what do I want to look back on? And, what would be the process of making this a reality?”
Lahiri had been working as a communications director (India & SAARC) at CA Technologies, and had previously worked at several PR agencies and MNCs as a PR/services marketing professional; at a newspaper as a business correspondent; and freelanced as a roving writer, researcher and subeditor. With a schedule in which he was either “travelling or returning from a work tour/ event virtually every three days on average,” he set out to upend his arduous lifestyle. He decided to quit his “suit-and-tie corporate life for good.”
