What could be more important than finding a favorite place to retreat to for a delicious cup of coffee when you are in a new city? Granted, we were spoiled by proximity and quality of good coffee in both Jakarta and Arlington. However, on our first outing to discover how the Brazilian bean is treated, we were pleasantly greeted by a causal outdoor seating and aromatic cup of Brazilian beans roasted by the owners at Belini Cafe. The cafe has a mission to re-educate Brazilians about coffee and how it should be drunk with a hefty menu explaining techniques for gathering, roasting, and preparing coffee. For us, it was a heavenly way to spend a Sunday in our new home city, and we almost felt like local regulars already.
This is an aimless blog that gives voices to small joys, quirky happenstances, everyday occurrences, and occasional pesterings as the author navigates her life paths as an educator, transplanted Wyomingite, traveler, and curiosity seeker.
