I used to see so many stories about how writers love writing in cafés. Just like where J. K. Rowling created my favorite Harry Potter. Now, everything makes sense to me.

I have been spending at least four days a week in cafés ever since August. I have my favorite spots in certain cafés, most of which are by window. I enjoy working in cafés, having my own little space while surrounded by many people. You can smell coffee. You can hear the music from some kind of coffee house playlist, but you are not actually listening. You can put on your earphone, but you are not actually playing any music on your laptop.

So Why Café? The conflicts are the very fascinating part about café. Not only the caffeine can help you focus, but also the environmental noises. You can see other people’s life going on here. Some are chatting about work, and some may just meet for their first dates. Some are making sales phone calls, and some may be doing video interviews. No one cares who you are or what you are doing, but you are part of the Café crew unknowingly. You can even get the chance to know the life story of the guy who makes your coffee. This is probably his second job today.

Morning. Afternoon. Night. Your experiences would be different.

Relax or focus. Just enjoy the Latte.
