Here are some reasons to visit Guatemala.
Go to an art school
with a view
and connected to the state of Georgia.
Start with the basics
and learn how to do this
or learn to bake a delicious cake
or paint madness.
They have carpentry classes, if you are looking for something more practical.
Here’s a reason for Mama to visit.
You can rent a room in a cozy house
for $100 / month
in a nice neighborhood.
You can visit weird stores
and impressive parks
or chill in the woods
just don’t forget to smell the flowers.
Love the pictures! I would love to hear about the “drug” culture…what are the pervasive opinions? How does one acquire pot? Is it any good? etc… Also, just curious, what is your favorite “grocery store” coffee? Coincidentally, I’m currently in love with Gevalia’s “Guatemala” 🙂
I love how you put “drug” in quotes. I will do my best to answer this question fully.
Where the coffee is from will determine a lot, but not all, of the flavor. I like Guatemalan because it’s typically chocolatey and arabica. The first thing I look for in by-the-bag is a roast date. The “sweet point” is usually reached 7 or 8 days after the roast date. After that, it’s usually good for another 2 or even 3 weeks as un-ground beans. Which degree of roast (darkness) is another topic and maybe the most important. If it has an 80 or higher Q-grading score (which qualifies for specialty coffee) then you know it’s “clean” or almost free of defects.
So long answer short: I don’t care who sells it as long as it’s what I like, fresh, and high quality.
