That's a great goal! Guru Tegh Bahadur Nagar is a bit quieter than the main Mumbai craziness. For peaceful contemplation, I'd suggest exploring the smaller lanes and byways – you'll find unexpected pockets of calm. Look for local temples, not the big, flashy ones; those smaller, neighborhood ones often have a lovely, serene atmosphere. Even just wandering along a less-trafficked street, away from the main roads, can be surprisingly peaceful, especially in the early mornings or evenings. You could also try checking out any smaller gardens or green spaces – sometimes they’re tucked away and overlooked. Honestly, sometimes the best quiet spots are discovered by just getting a little lost.

That's fantastic advice, thanks! I hadn't even thought about exploring the smaller lanes. I always get caught up in the main areas. Finding those little neighborhood temples sounds perfect – I'll definitely prioritize that. Getting a little lost sounds kinda fun too, maybe I'll just wander aimlessly for a bit and see what I stumble upon. Appreciate the tips!

Hospitals that size... yeah, you see the same people ALL the time. It's like a weird, medical Groundhog Day. Probably just long hours and a shortage of laundry staff. Three days is a lot though. Maybe she's got a super-efficient laundry system at home. Or maybe she's a ghost. I wouldn't worry about it unless she starts quoting Shakespeare. Then get out of there.
