One of the perks of being my own boss? Having flexible hours and being able to work from pretty much anywhere I want, whether it’s home, a hotel abroad (preferably by the pool) or a local coffee-shop. After few tests, I think coffee-shops are actually my fav place to work from because 1. Working from a coffee-shop actually means I get to get out of home and therefore can’t spend the day in pjs (I know spending the day in pjs looks like a great plan but believe me it’s actually not that cool, and I usually feel very guilty after doing so) 2. There are always people like me, working from coffee-shops and I like this kind of studious yet relax and quite hype atmosphere 3. I can sip on litters of coffee 4. I get to order avocado toast with my coffee
This last reason definitely being the main reason why I love working from coffee-shops if I am being entirely honest. I am just obsessed with avocado toasts! And after several months of tastings, I now have my fav places when it comes to yummy avocado toasts. Because yes, believe me, not two avocado toast taste the same ever!
