I live in Venezuela, which is a South American country. So Venezuelans do not enjoy the four climatic seasons. In my country, due to its location on the world map and its position on the equator, temperatures are divided into two. That is, we have only two distinctive seasons: the wet season, winter, which runs from May to November; and summer, the dry season, which runs from December to April.
However, we know that other countries do enjoy the four seasons. When it's winter, we are finishing winter and starting summer. So on this occasion I share with you that the months where I like to go, more than usual, to the coffee shops is in the last quarter of the year.
I think this is because from the month of October you start to see and feel the end of year season. Christmas decorations start to appear and the spirit of the people on the street is different. It goes through a mood that heals adversities and prepares the mind for that journey through what you have done and the things you would like to undertake.
And one of the places where you perceive that change and that transformation is on the street. Around a table, in front of a warm, aromatic and delicious coffee, that spirit arises that disposes to talk, think and project both feelings and thoughts about life. At least it happens to me very often, whether I am alone or accompanied.
At this time of year, I like coffee shops with air conditioning, where you can feel the very low temperature, sometimes cold. In Venezuela it is hot all year round, lately it is rarely cold or cool. So feeling cold for a while or a fairly refreshing climate is for us, Venezuelans, a blessing. Far from feeling sad, which is very characteristic of this time, I feel the vindication of life and my life. I make new vows as an exercise of will and peace...definitely the coffee and the environment help me a lot.

I already like coffee shops, all year round, but especially in this season, winter in other countries, I like them much more. After spending some time in that lively and decorated environment, I feel that I am revitalized. Another thing that makes me want to enjoy the cold atmosphere is that when I watch Christmas-themed movies and series, I find snow and cold environments cozy. So when I feel cold and I wear a coat, that warmth feels much more comforting.
On the other hand, a hot cup of coffee in an air-conditioned environment, in a Christmas season environment is the dream I will always choose.
