Iryna from Minsk

About me I'm a 100% T-shaped person: I can't stick to one thing for a long-long time, I need to explore a few different things in parallel, and preferably right now. Currently, I'm working as a data scientist in an IT company and I really enjoy it! The world is full of data that needs to be explored.

Coffee Embassy Minsk

All-day breakfast and chill

""Coffee Embassy" is located right in front of the Linguistics University in Minsk. I love how they serve breakfast all day & I never come here to work..."

Here you can meet people speaking different languages, cause the place is located right in front of Linguistic University. Here people celebrate a successful exam and spend time between classes. So, basically, it is a good place to explore and observe one side of student life.

Coffee Embassy is serving breakfast the whole day, which is great for such night owls as me. Also, the place always has a great playlist, and in the evening they light real candles. I never go there to work -- for me, it is a 100% relaxing place. It's place to talk with my dearest people, meet old friends or spend time with family.

From time to time, they have days when they cook something special that is outside of their daily menu. 

And, by the way, the owners of the place claim that they established the place from scratch in just 77 days, which is quite impressive!
