I use fire to make green coffee brown. Also using water to extract from it best flavours for you. To enjoy in adventures! JAKOBSTAD, FINLAND.

I have been thinking how one can measure success. Many who are succesful in my eyes wont ever admit that. Same time, I have not achieved even half of what they have, yet, I feel ok with what I have.

Strenght. Success. Happiness.
None of that is what one can see from the side.

I have this vision.

I feel that coffee is underrated.
We see it as a granted caffeine boost.
We see it cheap.

Its not our fault. But it will be, if that does not change.

I believe to be happy one must be dedicated.

The moments.

There I also find why I love my job so much.
To be in the moment of creating new moments.

A cup of coffee is not… https://t.co/qwrW7cpN8V
