Even though I live alone, sometimes I need to leave my apartment and work elsewhere in order to be seriously productive. I blame HGTV. No really, I can watch house TV shows for hours mindlessly without even realizing it.
Enter Breather, an app that lets you book quiet, private spaces for 30 minutes at time. After the company reached out to me, I booked a space super close to my apartment in Greenwich Village. I’ve been working from home most days recently and it was just what I needed to get out of my apartment and into a new environment.
The room was absolutely adorable, complete with a reading nook and books. There was a ton of space in the room I rented and would be great for a small yoga class, group meetings, or just a space to work alone.
I decided to use my hour to work on a few shots for an upcoming blog post I’ve been wanting to put together for some time. Far more room for planking and tons more natural lighting than in my apartment.
All Breather spaces are equipped with pencils, pens, notepads, candy and WiFi. My space also had a dry erase board and a charging station for cell phones. Breather currently has spaces in NYC, San Francisco, Boston, Montrael and Ottawa. In NYC prices start at around $17/ hr and goes up from there depending on how big the room is.
Want some peace and quiet? Breather kindly offered Kayla in the City readers 1 free hour using the promo code KAYLACITY (edit: apologies to anyone that had issues with the code earlier– it has since been updated!)
I was offered a free credit for Breather. As always, all opinions are my own.
