Hey Katie,

I`d been to NYC a couple of years ago, and although Buenos Aires, is a city that never sleeps, I was amazed.

A few years ago I moved to the countryside, I`m living in rural Buenos Aires (next the best Polo Clubs), but 30 minutes from downtown (by highway).
Your summer is our winter, and it`s not the best time to visit Buenos Aires (specially the countryside) but if you live in NYC, I guess you`re used to bad weather (cold+rain). I`m planning to visit Copenhagen by then, but any other time, I`ll be more than happy to host you.

There`s still a lot of work to be done for the project. A lot of people offered their support, but nobody signed in just yet. What happened with your project? It`s frozen or it was abandoned? You got in touch with Sponsors, or were planning to do it at your expense ??

It`s departure is planned for February 2009, and I`ll start with its promotion next month.

Un abrazo,
Federico

Dear Katie,

I hope life is treating you well. I'm hoping to see New York by the end of the year... It kind of needs to happen. Anyway, I figured I would check in and see how awesome your new job is... Tell me about it.

Hi Katie, I`m starting to recruit world-class trainers & baristas to train the local baristas at the american coffee growing countries. The idea is to cover the expenses (air ticket+hotel+food) for a 3 day trip (at least) with sponsor support. The venture will start by February 2009, if you`re able to delay your holidays it could be the best way to visit Argentina (for free). Best regards, Federico

That would be awesome. Let me know if you need a place to crash. So, no compete?

Uhm, hells yes, that would be awesome. Unfortunately, given the host fam set up, I can't have guests, but please come, it'd be très merveilleux. I know some people from murky (specifically Liz and Erin) said they might want to come over, too; maybe you could group hostile if you wanna cut costs. Just let me know, I'm totally down.

I agree with Ben and Jon below. However, I used up Jon's comment in the yearbook of someone I didn't know very well (J-o-n by the way is my brother's name and my middle name. My parents and I aren't very original). Anyway, I have some great photos to give you but I'm a computer moron and don't know how to put them here. So I guess I'll send yo a stink eye in my dreams. Sleep tight.

Katie, that was a hell of an installation, only a few drips and a few extra drill holes, and nothing blew up. Who could ask for more. Till next time.

Ok, the bk with onsies soon...but I want to stay in France for the summer. However, that necessitates a new visa, so I'll be in DC for a hot second in April, you wanna come for a visit?

PS, I'd rather be flying.

Met you in DC - well, I think... The blonde is throwing me off a bit in the video. Looking a little freaked:)

BTW, you and Phil rock -- as if you didn't know! I gained LOTS of info. on how to correct things -- when not using my espresso, of course -- and have actually been able to help some businesses around town to improve their technique.

What color will the hair be next? Hmm.....

Your barista exchange ranking is so much higher than mine, fuck. I wish I were a real coffee professional; I think I'm just going roll around a suitcase in the metro to add a new level to my masquerade.
