    I've been doing it for nearly 4 years now, and it's not as bad as people say, I admit it gets lonely sometimes, but there ways to attack that problem.

    I personally work at least 3 days a week at local cafes, there is a few around my house where there are actually a lot of designers (students/ and freelancers) and I have worked with a few of them in the past, either they hired me, or I hired them, at one point we have collaborated in projects too.

    I try to run in the mornings 3 times a week as well, so most likely I leave the house most of the day. I also work on site as freelancer on a few agencies here.

    On top of that I'm somewhat involved in the local music scene (I'm either performing, taking photos, or throwing small shows). My girl keeps me in check, I'm a night person if it wasn't for her reminding me that I need to go to bed before midnight, I stay up late till at least 5am when I see sunshine on the window because I'm a night person.
