Pay More for Nice Things
Specialty coffee is too cheap, we should pay more for nice things.
Day eight of my travel diary, the end
So we get to the end of my diary. You set out worth the best of intentions on the 1st of January to keep a diary, but it normally fails by day 3. well I got all the way to the end, so permission to feel smug.
The last day is a day of great highs (well La Paz is very high up right). But seriously I leave La Paz very happy with the future, also trying to do a little bit to help too.
We also have a message from Lupe from Machacamrca with I’ve included here as its so ace.
Thank you for listening, thank you for all the feedback, and I hope you enjoyed
Day seven of my travel diary, Caranarvi
Today I take a trip to visit David Vilca and Tedacio Mamani and get thinking more about the future of Bolivian coffee.
This trip has caused much thinking, and heres my monologue
Day Six of my coffee Trip Caranavi
So today I’m in the same place for 24 hours. No cars, no planes, no mountain bikes sitting in a lovely lab cupping lovely coffees. But still time to think and still time to worry about the star of Bolivian coffee.
and worry I do, we could be witnessing the permanent decline of Bolivian coffee. One that can not be fixed by paying more or throwing money at it, but one that needs something much more powerful. Advice and help and guidance. But as always we hopefully have a solution and I talk about that here.
