Angel was showing me around his coffee farm in Guatemala, talking about how everything needed to be in balance- from the shade to the soil- in order to grow coffee beans just right.
It occurred to me that I was basically doing what I would do for work… exploring a farm, interviewing a farmer, learning about agriculture and sustainability… except I was in the middle of a two week vacation. And it was my birthday.
I guess I’m doing something right if the thing I do for a living is something I would also do for fun, on vacation, on my birthday.
