Travel Beyond the Coffee Shop

Trips Behind the Scenes

Exploring the World, One Destination at a Time

Discovering everything the world has to offer is a special treat, much like a well-executed cup of coffee. Everything from camping in mountains or deserts, to experiencing the unique aspects of a small town, learning something new about the history of a city, and having an invigorating conversation by immersing yourself in the local language, makes all travel worthwhile. It can of course be difficult to arrange and a new challenge to your senses and understanding of the world, but those moments are what travel is all about. Embrace it.

Travel History

Andres has been a lifelong traveler. He has only been to 3 continents so far, but has always wanted to visit them all. Coffee is an excellent avenue to do just that. 2020 may have forced some delays, but travel is on the horizon.

Coffee Roasting Basics Course with Café Sublime

In Guadalajara lies a wealth of Mexican history and culture. The creation of mariachi music, the creation of tequila just a short ride away, and also home to Café Sublime, a group that runs a selection of the finest coffee shops in the city. I participated in their Coffee Roasting Basics course, and let me tell you, it sure was an eye opener.
