Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.
Fell in love with the industry after being made redundant from the mind numbing sales industry. I had an epiphany after trying a single origin yirgacheffe made for me by the Western Australian champion. I kept up the interest and landed a job as a Barista Manager in a small french style cafe in Perth. I make about 300 cups of various speciality coffee a day. I like what I do. And life has changed for me. One day I hope to use my sales skills and the knowledge learned from being a head barista and promote a top quality brand of coffee.
What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?
Anywhere without explosions
About Me:
All around pretty good guy, with a good sense of humour. A good listener and communicator respectful and capable of great things. I never saw myself doing what I do, never in my wildest dreams, but I am happy that I do. I hope one day to move on into the world of specialty coffee. The repetition of making coffee day to day. can be a little hard. Hence the reason to move from within one day. Small update I manage a new cafe now. Moving on up to the east Side. Head Barista and also manage the place. We open very soon
About My Company:
I dont have a company

    Morning ...hi Steve every day is a good day !
    Athens is cloudy and busy !
    I'm lucky cause every morning i wake up with a double (single origin) espresso ! But when im on run on street in coffee shops,cafe,etc the situation change dramatically for my taste !
    You know ,low cost coffee blends,low budget staff,cause they think that they earn more !
    Anyway I'll enjoy my last Tarrazu for the moment ...everything is perfect.
    Chears ,enjoy your day !
