It's been a while since I have written a post for my blog on hive. Time was probably not the culprit this time around. The choice is between me being a lazy bum and me being a bit too exhausted from all the running errands in extreme heat. Choose your poison - either is more likely than the other!
My wife and I returned back home for the upcoming festivities. Just earlier I dropped my wife off and while she gets her work done, I find myself with about 2-3 hours of free time of having absolutely nothing to do before picking her up.
I had no set plan of what to do in between. The idea was to wing it and see! And if you know me, you know I was always going to wing it in a coffee shop LOL! I was thinking of spending some time sipping coffee at "Rio Coffee." But I decided to open google maps and scan the nearby cafes once, just in case. It didn’t take me too long to cancel the walk to Rio Coffee - I was literally standing a 5 minutes walk away from "Segafredo Zanetti."
For those who don't know, I rate this cafe very highly among all cafes in Chittagong. Not only for their coffee, but they are among the very, very few cafes in the city that provides a proper coffee shop ambiance - you know...vintage, calm, light music maybe, elegant....and all that very important stuff. And by very few, I mean this is the only cafe that comes to mind in the city with that sort of ambiance.
I don’t know if trying to get some swing trades on binance and writing a post on HIVE counts as working - but hey, I am making hell of a lot more money than what my day job pays, so there's that!
Although the walk wasn’t too far from where I was, the scorching sun made it seem like an eternity. Whatever desire of having a creamy cup of latte I had on my mind and wiped off halfway through the walk. I now wanted something light, something cold. Iced Latte wasn’t going to make the cut. Iced Americano was the only drink on the menu that was going to quench my thirst, and my need of a caffeine kick!
I found myself a nice quiet corner, right below the chilling air conditioner. As I have sipped my way through my coffee, I have cooled down enough to now want another cup of hot latte 😂
But I think I am going to curb that thought as I don’t want to fill my appetite with just coffee before heading off to a lunch invitation where I know for a fact I will be eating quite a bit! We don't want coffee to take the blame of suffocating me at lunch now do we!
Having myself a cozy, quiet corner when I am trying to get some work done is top of the list, always. And I think I have found myself just that here at Segafredo. I am going to hang around a bit longer here. I don’t understand the Arabic songs they're playing, but it has an unbelievably calming effect!
So here's to relaxing!
