A few days ago, I discovered a café with decorations that gave the space a poetic and literary touch (The Alchemist Café). There were postcards with various themes, many of which referenced paintings by Henri Matisse.

Selling the FUTURE

An interesting concept they offer is the idea of sending postcards to yourself. You choose the date and year when it will be sent. I once had the idea of writing letters to myself. At least something would arrive in my mailbox. Here are some photos I’d like to share.

FUTURE POSTCARD:
WHEN YOU WANT SOMETHING,
ALL THE UNIVERSE CONSPIRERS
TO HELP YOU ACHIEVE IT.

And today, Thursday, November 14, 2024, with a typhoon signal 8 decreasing to 3 in the morning, as I was walking to take the tram, it started to rain. So, I stopped at a café to wait for the rain to calm down. I loved seeing the decorations telling a story: The journey of coffee from the seed and planting, through the harvest, the washing process, roasting, packing, preparation, and finally its arrival in the cup. Ready to enjoy an exquisite and warm (American) coffee.
