But what kept me going? What helped me survive in that battle against the behemoths (especially English Language exam)- indeed it was Harry Potter, as I was able to dive into spellbinding stories on my hour-journey home, where I could have imagined that instead of writing essays about Cold War, I could be like Hermione, who was running out of parchments for her homework about history of Hogwarts.
And then, and then when I have reached the true Garden of Eden, which was nothing more than my big mug with funny ducks full of hot chocolate on Friday evening with a thick layer of whipped cream and an encouraging sprinkle of chocolate (from my new Cadbury's Sprinkler :)) to top it off; I have finally relaxed finishing the second book. At that point, I was able to admit- I had become a Potter-maniac! Nothing more, nothing less, so then the new paradise came and thanks to my dad I ended up visiting the "birthplace" of Harry Potter in Edinburgh about a week later.
So, let's start the topic of this post now!
... slightly too low down the page, I guess.
I have to say, this coffee house is one of the best I have ever been to! Lovely atmosphere and I have learned something- there are so many various books about elephants! When you walk around the streets of Edinburgh with a running nose as it is slightly chilly but also as it rains every other minute; you start to fill peckish (even after haggis) and continually hear the pipes music in the background, the only thing you want to do is indulge into a generous piece of cake with a hot drink- so this is the right place for you and I strongly recommend vanilla cheesecake and a cup of milky latte.
Believe me, you won't regret it.
Now, as an earlier mentioned Harry Potter fan, tears filled my eyes when I saw articles hanging on the walls with J. K. Rowling and her beginnings. Such sentimental moments encompassed me whilst sitting in a comfortable chair and thinking that it is going to be me one day with that cool Macbook sitting in the corner and revising, but at the same time sipping my hot beverage and enjoying the atmosphere- like that university student that I saw there.
P.S. Toilets were the true surprise :) and for more information look on my review on Tripadvisor. Get ready: Italian breakfast and Scotland posts will be up soon!
