I am certainly writing something on my life in Glasgow, so stay tuned. Glasgow’s Brooklyn) girl now, I’m more open to the great variety of entertainment options that the West End’s diverse neighborhoods offer. I guess 1.5 years of living in Hillhead turned me into that snobby person whose life was rotating between campus, Ashton Lane, and Tesco Metro in Byres Road. I actually had the chance to properly explore Finnieston not so long ago during one of my long walks along the River Clyde. The coffee there is actually good, and I like the baristas that are always up for a chit chat, and the place has a cute little outdoor seating area… That’s how I got fully absorbed by Melinda’s book. Not that they serve the best coffee in the West End, but perhaps I’ve just developed a new routine that keeps me occupied and distracted from all the stupid things I could otherwise have been doing at home. Since recently I’ve found myself walking almost 3km every other day to Finnieston to get a takeaway coffee and do my reading sessions at this place called Tajura.
THE MOMENT OF LIFT FREE
The post contains a lot of unnecessary personal blather in the beginning, feel free to skip the next two paragraphs. I personally find it enlightening and empowering. The message is that investing in women might be the smartest financial decision in the 21st century, and the book explains why. This is an extended summary of the book The Moment of Lift: How Empowering Women Changes the World by Melinda Gates that I’ve read recently.
