Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This is not a success story.It's a tale of ten years in the coffee industry, of what happens when you take the leap, seize the day, and follow your dreams - then discover you don't have any money, your landlord is an idiot, and the job you moved to another country for may not exist.Annabel's coffee adventures took her from a wet, dreary market in northern England to the Canadian Prairies via a PhD in Central America. Along the way, she learned her barista skills from a world champion barista, entertained teenagers with her coffee and culinary experiments, and discovered the joys of entrepreneurship almost by accident. She sorted bad beans from good ones on tiny farms in the highlands of Nicaragua and took home a tropical disease as a souvenir. Her business ventures have combined coffee with books, babies, bicycles, burlesque, and emigration bureaucracy, because what else do you do with a PhD in coffee? This is the real story of coffee entrepreneurship, with all the grim, impossible, frustrating, and messy bits left in.
