Ask HN: What's your favorite place to work from as a freelancer?
I can't fully explain it, but I feel most productive in a certain kinds on coffee shops. Not at home, not in a co-working space, and certainly not in a library
- brudgers 11y agoI've worked out of the house for a long time. When I don't need multiple monitors and a desk and can get by with a laptop, an Ikea POÄNG.
- muzani 11y agoMy car honestly. Or from the stairs of someone else's office building. Just feels gritty that way.
- prmph 11y agoInteresting responses. I hated work cubicles and office politics, so I started a successful freelancing career. I dislike working from home because it is too quiet, my mind tends to wander, and I can easily switch to doing a non-work chores on my todo list. I dislike libraries because they are too quiet and "serious", and so my mind tends to wander and I become restless. I signed up for a co-working space, which seemed a better environment, except I started to feel like I was back in a work cubicle. So far the only place where I really feel productive is, surprisingly, coffee shops, with some background chatter, good wifi, great seats, maybe a fireplace, and of course, great coffee. I am trying to start a business providing co-working environments in coffee shops for a small monthly fee split with the coffee shops
