Highway to Happy

We have a thing for coffee shops. It didn’t take us until we were young adults, wanting some quiet place away from pesky teeners to discover the sanctuary that is Starbucks. In College, where the only most probable free time we had was early morning, we would meet at Coffee.com in Traders Hotel’s lobby. They served bad, overly-priced coffee. But we didn’t mind. They were open 24 hours a day and we meet at 5:30am. Even Starbucks near DLSU is closed at that time, so we had no other options.

From the only available meeting place to our most favorite escape, we surely have fallen in love with the peacefulness and warmth of a coffee shop.

I just like the feel of this (digitally) antiquated picture.

We will grow old and weak someday, not being able to enjoy discovering new shops together. But before that time comes, we would have gotten all over the world in search for the best coffee place and bring whatever made it the best right into the comforts of our own home.

Or maybe we'll make a business out of it and create some other couples' favorite place.
