VanLife. It is a life that involves exquisite bedroom window views, with side of the road front porch hangs, all revolving around one and one only, multi-purpose room that serves as the center of my universe.

Living by Mother Nature's Rules in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado
I love the mountains for all the unforgiving peace they exude. Out here, you have to learn to be tough. Out here, you have to learn how to mold to Mother Nature's rules. Out here, you learn to trust yourself and revel in the solitude.
Bean Spotlight: Peru - Organic Chasqui
This USDA Organic Peruvian coffee comes from the collection of 68 smallholder coffee producers throughout three regions in Peru: Cajamarca, Junin and San Martin. The altitude of these farms range from 800–1,800 meters and produce coffee varieties including Bourbon, Typica, Caturra, Catimor, Catuai, and Castillo. This coffee is harvested May through October, where the beans undergo natural fermentation, are washed and then sun dried. The end result is a coffee with sweet notes of chocolate, nougat and tart green grape with mild acidity and a smooth body that finishes like a crisp, white wine.
