I woke up early today on purpose because I felt like having some quiet time alone while I had my coffee this morning.
My partner and I are staying at a camping site with some friends; we’ve been here for almost a week, and I haven’t been able to have my own space.
It’s important for me to spend time alone, and with the chaos and commotion of the camping site, it’s just been impossible to get the solitude that I need. I planned my escape meticulously. I woke up at 7:30 a.m. and got out of the tent making as little noise as possible. I then quickly grabbed my laptop and headed to an air conditioned cafe. I feel so happy that I was finally able to have some time alone and, on top of that, enjoy a coffee in a climate-controlled locale. What a luxury! The coffee tastes delicious as we’ve been having that horrible instant coffee powder. After some time here, however, the only thing that’s bothering me is that the cooling system is set a bit too high. I’m wearing summer clothing, and I’m thinking I should’ve brought a jacket. Also, it’s going to feel even hotter when I go out into the sizzling heat. I don’t know why they always have the a/c unit turned on so high. This also increases the risk of developing a cold. I might ask the staff to turn the darn HVAC unit down, actually, because this is just ridiculous!
