When pouring yourself a good cup of coffee, one with deep flavor and a seductive aroma, the stories of the journey ending in such a simple, repetitive, and often unimportant act as having said cup of coffee, are lost. A sip of coffee can be an encounter, a pretext, an everyday act, or perhaps a ritual. Phrases such as “I’m going to get a cup of coffee”, “I already had a cup”, “have a cup!”. “I need a cup of coffee”, are part of everyday life.
Only a few weeks before leaving Quito, I attempt to refresh my memories by visiting the places that made an impression; from the flavor of a good cup of coffee in the Historic District, to the intense feeling of the cold wind in my face as I climb to the top of Rucu Pichincha.
