Hi Edwin,

I will be in Guatemala with my family in March - I'm not sure of the exact dates, whether it will coincide with the trip. We'll be traveling with 2 friends and their 2 children. I would very much like to visit Finca Vista Hermosa. Can you accommodate 4 adults and 4 children? I

Tony - sure. We can accomodate as in feed, house, transport 8 more people - however we're 6-9 hrs from Guatemala City on land so timing will have to line up well for you to not try this trip on your own. I shoot you an email.

hi gabe, i believe ryan is coming down here for the micro lot hunt, don't know if he's staying for the balance of the trip yet. You're welcome to come, but you have to behave.... I hear you guys can be a rowdy crew.

Andy that's a scary picture.
I can't believe it's actually happening - Noe at Barefoot should be GREAT for everyone. I shared about this with a handful at Anacafe and some export houses. There's much enthusiam here about international exchange type internships in any link in coffee. Please keep us posted on this.
See you soon.

Edwin,

Is it too late to inquire about the farm visit? I just realized that March 15-21 coincides with my university's Spring Break. I'm interested in checking out to see if I can make this work. If there still is room, how soon would you need confirmation?

Well, I replied to your invitation email, but I'm curious.

What is the average cost of this trip? In other words, roughly how much do I need to gather in order to make it?

I'm still upset that I missed the trip last year, and would like to make this one if at all possible.

Looking forward to seeing you.

Anytime. I'm sure you're venture will be noteworthy as a milestone in specialty coffee development in latin america. If I didn't have other responsibilities, I would be joining you.

Press on.

Edwin
