As introverts, we occasionally experience a drop in our social energy, particularly in large crowds. Whether it’s the hum of a crowded coffee shop or the pressure of social gatherings, introverts may need to disconnect from others and recharge from time to time.
Because of this, we often look for places suitable for us to run away from the bustling, fast-paced lives around us. From lush greeneries to hidden gems around the city of Kuala Lumpur, that is ideal for us to take a break from reality and recharge ourselves. Here are 7 spots that are perfect for introverts to unwind in peace:
1. MeTime Book Cafe
This place is a sanctuary for book lovers and a great place to unwind! MeTime Book Cafe portrays the utmost cosy vibe with wood furniture, fairy lights, and bouncy beanbags! This book cafe is known to have private rooms equipped with a small table and beanbags. MeTime Book Cafe also offers a wide selection of board games, party games, and interactive card reading sessions that can help with personal growth. Despite being more of an introvert’s hideout, this place can be reserved for events or just a mere place to gather with friends and family.

For the hole-in-the-wall coffee experience, you can grab a small menu card of your preferred beverage off the hooks outside, ring a bell, and hand the card over to a hand that would appear through the hole, where you’ll receive your order after a while.
