    Hi Emily,

    My name is Federico, nice to meet you.
    I have a question that is not related with coffee: I`m planning to go (in an ATV) from Seattle to Prudhoe Bay by August. Do you think it would be possible (weather)?

    Best regards,
    Federico

    In greece we have 40-57 F today and is cold for us, but is the right season temperature. We expect to makes more cold in the dues January and in February. Good winter!

    Thanks for your prompt response!
    I`m not sure if I`ll be able to go sooner, the plan is to get there by beg August.
    I`m used to being a little uncomfortable, as I frequently visit the Patagonia for trekking, mountain bike, flyfishing, etc(Ushuaia has kind of similar weather conditions, but a little bit lighter).
    I will let you know if I have any other question (I`m sure I`ll write you soon). Thanks for all your help!

    Being a kiwi I may be the wrong person to ask... my experience of coffee in Sydney is as a consumer. Danes does have a strong reputation- but you could also approach some of the top names there- Orign Coffee and the like. There is also a book put out "Sydney Guide to Coffee" which I believe lists every quality cafe complete with email/website and physical address. I know its available from Dymocks Book store- you may be able to get it online sent to you or ask one of the Aussie BX'ers to buy and send it to you. It could be very helpful
