About Me:
I´ve been working as a barista for about 6-7 years both fulltime and parttime in Reykjavík and in Copenhagen. I participated in the WBC 2005 and in the NBC 2005 and 2007. I am one of the lucky NBC 2007 participants who is going to Nicaragua in January 2008, really excited about that! Coffee is one of my main interests and I think this web-page is a great idea for us coffeegeeks to keep in contact and make new contacts:) Thumbs up for that!!:)

  • Michael de Renouard

    Hej Jonina, søde pige!. Her går det godt. Jeg rister på livet løs, her på fabrikken. Det er rigtigt godt. Jeg elsker det. Det er fabriksarbejde, men med liv og sjæl. Det var en god tur, men man drikker for meget, men det skal jeg jo ikke fortælle dig! :-) Jeg håber at Roberta behandler dig orderntligt og at Roman er en flink fyr! Skriv snart igen!
  • Elfa Drofn Stefansdottir

    Gaman að heyra :)
    Það er bara allt fínt að frétta hjá mér í kuldanum og snjónum. Erum á síðustu metrunum í óperuuppsetningunni okkar í skólanum. Frumsýning á mánudaginn, þannig að það eru æfingar og rennsli alla daga. Svaka gaman samt :)
    Þú lætur nú kannski vita af þér svo maður viti í hvaða ævintýrum þú ert að lenda :)
  • Ingibjörg Jóna Sigurðardóttir

    Hææjj!! Ferðin heim var fín. Ég var rosa þreytt...en ég flýtti ferðinni og kom heim í gær. Ég var á sunnudaginn að þjálfa 3 stelpur sem var mjög fínt, eiddum klukkutíma í að þrífa vélina áður en við byrjuðum :D Svo bara skundað út á völl. Hvernig er hjá þér?

    Hi Jonina,

    You may already know about my venture. I`m starting to recruit world-class trainers & baristas to train the local baristas at the american coffee growing countries.
    The idea is to cover the expenses (air ticket+hotel+food) for a 3 day trip (at least) with sponsor support.
    The venture will start by February 2009, if you`re able to donate a couple of days of your time, to promote the barista profession, please let me know, and I`ll send you the schedule.

    Best regards,
    Federico
  • Fede Cabrera

    Hey Jonina,

    Thanks for your interest!
    I`m not planning to stay much longer in each country, but it will be possible to visit more than one country ... if I`ve got the enough sponsor support.

    On the other hand, some parts of the trip could be dangerous (specially for foreign young ladies) which I`ll not be covering with any guests. Please send me an email address and I`ll send you the schedule and a brief summary of the venture.

    Best regards,
    Federico

    Hæ elsku Jónína! Þín var sárt saknað á árshátíðinni á sunnudag . . . Vona að þú komir stútfull af fróðleik og visku til að miðla þegar þú kemur tilbaka - bíðum spennt!
