Welcome to the Coffee Passport

Everywhere I travel, I end up in coffee shops. Not the tourist ones — the small, dialed-in spots where someone behind the counter actually cares. And I've started bringing pieces of them home: a shirt here, a pin there, a sticker, some small local thing you can't order online and won't find twice.

The Coffee Passport is where I share those visits — the shop, the people, the coffee, the city — with the photos to match. And when I'm able to, I bring back a handful of those rare finds and put them on The Passport Shelf, where you can take one home yourself.

Here's the thing: these are one-of-a-kind. When a piece is gone, it's gone. So if you ever see something from a shop whose story you love, don't sit on it too long.

First stop is coming soon — South Korea. Pull up a chair, follow along, and let's go find some good coffee.
