For when you need a break from the home or work office…
After a long time of working remotely for many of us, it’s nice to get a little change of scenery. Whether you’re working from home or back in the office, why not organise a lunch date with a friend to help change things up a bit?
You could even take your laptop and spend the rest of the afternoon working there.
