On weekends, when I have nothing else to do, I always take my laptop and choose a coffee shop. Then find a quiet corner to sit down, savoring the coffee from this small shop while thinking about things that interest you. Occasionally, I would browse my phone to kill time and look at those interesting people sitting in the coffee shop.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have always believed that the style of coffee shops in a city can represent the temperament of that city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, the coffee shops in Beijing are very cultural. They talk about those high-end topics related to the situation in China and the world, or all kinds of start-up financing. And it feels like the world is right beneath your feet, just a round of angel is needed. The coffee shops in Shanghai are all very Bohemian. People talk about all kinds of fashionable socialites, celebrities or brand ips, and they do look very socialite in their outfits. In the coffee shops of Hangzhou, however, it's very Jiangnan. They talk about Chinese culture, tea ceremony, guqin, or business talks. And those doing business also have a skewer in hand.
So, a cafe is more like a condensed representation of a city's temperament. When you stay there for a long time, you might have a different experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
