I’ve been traveling throughout Guatemala since early November, maintaining a reporter’s notebook here. On the days I spent in Antigua, each morning, the second-story room where I stayed filled with the intoxicating smell of freshly roasted coffee. I followed the scent-trail downstairs and discovered a neat little cafe where a guy named Fernando roasts, bags, and brews fresh local beans every morning. Video and photos (sorry, no smell-o-vision) are here: Link.
Here’s a roundup of additional posts on xeni.net/trek from the past day:
* Guatemala: museum exhibit of teeny-tiny Xmas creches
* Indigenous films made by indigenous people
