Today, I‟m going to share with you a place where I often go to relax/read and write/ hang out with my friends, which is a small café/restaurant near my house named “ABC”

As a full-time student, I have to go to school 5 days a week. therefore, the only time that I can visit this place is on weekends.

The coffee house is located on a quiet street with a lot of trees planted on both sides. Additionally, it has a patio [‘pætiəʊ] with hanging gardens which I like very much; it makes me feel like I‟m sitting in a garden of my own.

Separated from the hustle and bustle of the city life, this place allows me to sit quietly, relaxing after a week of hard work. I can concentrate on a personal project such as reading or writing in my blog without being interrupted by other people.

It serves great coffee, tea, and cakes, thus, the place always smells very nice. In addition, the employees are also friendly and helpful.

Sometimes, I go there with my friends. Over a nice cup of coffee/tea, we share our stories and smell the beautiful scent of the flowers. At that moment, we can escape from reality for a little while and enjoy ourselves even more.
