Columbus To Do List #1
My peer mentor group and I went to Kafe Kerouac in the neighborhood of Old North Columbus on October thirtieth. My group decided that this would be a cool place to explore because it is an area of Columbus none of had explored much, and it could even become an area where could study in the future if we were want to get off campus. I enjoyed how interesting the inside of the building was, with a small serving bar to make coffee, and serve the customers. I thought it was cool how there were cheap books that you could buy everywhere in the store, as well as old records, and graphic novels. The only thing that felt a little strange about the coffee shop was how it was divided into two sections, but it gave it more room for sitting, also there was a stage that I imagine they use for bands. From the experience our group ;earned about the different places we could explore that are not on campus, where we could just get away from the academic pressures on campus and relax for a time. I think next time when looking for a place to go, our group would look for a place that would offer a place that offers more than just a coffee shop, or a place where we could have more fun in Columbus like, a park, or Nationwide Arena. I would definitely recommend this place to a friend as a place to relax and do some homework, or meet up to have a conversation with a friend.
Columbus To Do List #2
On November 27th Sage and I went to Coffee Underground which is located in the basement of the Indianola Church of Christ, on the corner of Indianola Ave and Norwich Ave. We had to walk through the cold wind, and sin to make it to Cofee Underground which is roughly 0.6 miles away from Drackett Tower. Upon arriving we saw that it was in the basement of the building, and it provides a great atmosphere for relaxing with friends, or trying to study for exams. The shop was decorated for the Christmas season, so it provided a calming festive feeling. I really enjoyed the relaxed environment it provides to students, however it is a long distance to walk from Drackett in the cold. Next time, I will definitely bring my computer, so I can work on homework and study. I would recommend this place, as I look forward to returning soon.
