How This Pair Actually Operates

Anchor important meetings to the shared band and treat the rest of the day as async support time.
This pair still supports live work, but the useful band is narrow enough that calendars should be built around the overlap instead of hoping ad hoc slots remain usable.
Run the recurring forum in the shared bridge window and move spillover into written notes.
Best Async Lane Right Now
Budapest → Mumbai
Async still matters for prep and follow-up, but the live window is good enough that decisions can usually happen inside the same cycle.
