    Yang, great to meet someone who shares similar interests. I love traveling as well and of course coffee. Unfortunately, I am unemployed right now. The last shop I was at is selling to Pekoe tea and I have had no luck looking for coffee jobs in the area. Otherwise I would say that we should definitely swap or something that would be alot of fun. Best of luck to you though and if you ever want to chat feel free to hit me up. 720-936-0827

    Hey!! Whats new with you Yang its been a little while? Unfortunately I am not in the coffee buiz right now :( Tough times call for tough measures. With our shop being bought out I wasn't really able to find much in the coffee industry. I miss it terribly though and hope to be back in it soon. So do you still love coffee?
