Re: Reading indoors or outdoors?

Post by shanson1 »

I love to read indoors and outdoors. Usually I read indoors though, on my bed, or in the living room. Especially with a warm cup of tea. Oh, however, if its a beautiful day, I cannot help but venture outdoors.

Depends on my mood. As long is not windy or extremely noise outside, outdoors might be my first choice.

I prefer reading indoors, mostly for the reason that the wind can end up turning my pages outdoors

Considering this never-ending and unforgiving winter we have been having, I would give anything to read outside right now! In my opinion, there is nothing better than sitting underneath a shaded tree in the warm summer sun with a nice book. Just thinking about it makes me smile.

There is nothing better than curling up on a big comfy couch with a mug of coffee, a blanket, my dog, and a book or two, so I am inclined to say inside. However, I now live in sunny California where you rarely feel the urge to "curl up" let alone with a blanket. Lately I have been packing my book with me when I go early morning kayaking, and allowing myself extra time to read a few chapters in the middle of the bay.

I read anywhere and everywhere I possibly can, so both indoors and outdoors. Though I still prefer indoors more than the outdoors.
My weekend is all booked!

It depends on the weather, but usually both.

Usually indoors. I love being outdoors, but the little things that happen outdoors while I'm reading really bother me. Sometimes I find birds singing distracting, and sometimes the breeze is a little too chilly and keeps flipping my pages. I guess indoors is just more of a controlled environment where I can make sure there are no distractions.

I love reading outside, but not right now because the pollen is almost deadly here. When I get to read outside I like to read late in the afternoon in my hammock.

I prefer to read indoors unless I'm at the beach. I'm all about reading a good book on the beach.

Usually I read indoors, but if I stay to much inside I go and read on a bench in a park. And I also read while waiting for the buss and on it.

When I am outdoors, I tend move around a lot so it is audio book time. Inside for regular reading.
