#AD

One thing I've learnt over the past few years is that where I study has a huge impact on how productive I am. During the school year, especially in the winter, most of my days are spent inside, moving between classes, the library and long study sessions. By the time summer comes around, I try to take advantage of every chance I get to work outside instead. Before I head out, I pack everything I know I'll need for the day; my laptop, notebooks, charger and a water bottle. Having a place for everything helps me stay organized so I can focus on what I'm there to do. The North Face Borealis has become an easy part of that routine. It carries everything I need, stays comfortable throughout the day and makes it easy to move from one place to the next without having to think twice about what I'm bringing. Whether I'm catching up on school work, answering emails, or just spending a few hours outside, with a view like this, having everything packed and ready makes it easy to settle in and enjoy being there. I've realized that sometimes the best way to be productive isn't working longer, it's changing your environment, getting outside and bringing the essentials with you.
