What was supposed to be a week-long vacation turned into 4 years of traveling alongside his father to coffee regions all around the world.
Together, they trekked the jungles of Africa, backpacked through the villages of Indonesia, and voyaged across the Amazon – all in search of finding the best coffees on earth.
