    Needed a change of scenery with doing work (going a bit troppo doing WFH all the time) so brought my laptop to a local cafe. This cafe is more coffee and small eats rather than full-on brunch, so thought it would be fine. Half the tables in here aren’t taken.

    It’s interesting how working / studying from cafes in Australia isn’t really a thing. I get why (table turnover). I remember when I was in the US it was very common to walk into a cafe and see a lot of people with laptops. Didn’t seem to be an issue in Japan either.

          Depends on where and when. Near unis, or during the leadup to exams, plenty working or studying in cafes in the inner city. I see a fair number in Richmond, Collingwood etc.

          I think it’s becoming less common though simply because of the cost of living. You’re paying at least $5 for entry and might not necessarily get a charging point even
