What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?
Antarctica! Someday I will go there. It's been a dream for awhile! I would love to go back to Russia and explore Finland a bit more. I think Central and South America would be amazing to see. Really, I'd be happy traveling anywhere!
About Me:
Four year barista and lover of good coffee. I'm moving to Portland, OR, in September, which I am VERY much looking forward to! I love outdoor activities, such as hiking, snowshoeing, biking, kayaking, etc. An Alaskan girl at heart, but it's time to head to the warmer climes of Oregon. One can only take a temperate rainforest for so long (although it will always be home). I love to read, entertain friends, drink wine, watch movies, and cook.
About My Company:
We're a two person operation on the beautiful island of Revillagigedo in Alaska. We sell both green and roasted coffee beans via our retail store, online shop, and eBay store. We have an in-store espresso cart. We roast coffee daily and feature 73 different kinds. It's a great business to work for and I love it!

    Hey, thanks for coming by! I'm glad you had a good time at our little shop and our little island. You definitely stumbled upon one of the only non-touristy place on the whole island, and, we have a good time. I've always been curious about life on other islands and, when the time comes, will take vacations to other islands. Good luck!
