The benefits of working online

Having the luxury of walking by a nice pub and thinking: "I can stop to grab a small glass of wine, enjoy it and listen to some music", is not something that even passed by my mind when I had an full time offline job.

To start I would probably not even be walking around because I would be too tired or not have the time for it. I don't want to brag just want to say that having this freedom is really nice and I think we all should be able to have more freedom to do whatever we feel like.

As I was walking to the underground station, after a very enjoyable and productive day walking around, visiting some places I haven't been in a while and also editing some photos during my coffee breaks. I have passed by this place, looked at it and something inside called me.

Because I have had enough coffee for the day, and I really just wanted to sit for a little bit to enjoy the atmosphere I have decided to grab a glass of Rose.

For my surprise it was very dry, but then again it was my fault because I have ordered a pinot blush anyway was a nice wHigh ta

I wanted a little bit more wine, when I looked at the menu there was just 2 sizes, 175 and 250 ml, many places here in the UK do this. This are the standard medium and large size, but also many places "don't sell" the small size. Usually when someone order the small they will serve the 175 ml, that is the smallest one they have in the menu.

For some reason, this time around the bartender decided to serve me the 125 ml. But when I have noticed I have already tapped my card, so I did not asked for the other size that I was actually looking at.

Like many other Pubs in London there's a "secret garden", that this time I didn't visit because it was really cold and windy outside so I did not wanted to get a cold. But in case you are wondering, there is an outside area, and if it looks as cool as the inside it is a nice place to be.

I bet that during the weekends and also all Summer tourist season this pub is very busy since it is just by the main road and on the way that takes us to the Portobello Road Market.

I have not stayed in here for a long time, as I've said, the plan was just to grab a quick glass and chill for a little bit and that's what I did. I could have stayed longer, I really enjoyed my time in here but I also still had a lot of work to do. 

So after this nice relaxing break I made my way home and I was feeling way more relaxed.

In the meanwhile I wanted to ask you, if you could have more freedom, what things you think you would do?
