The Day My Coffee Taught Me Life’s Secrets
It was supposed to be an ordinary morning. I had no plans to uncover the mysteries of the universe — I just wanted coffee. Simple, black, strong, and hopefully quiet.

New Horizons in a strange land
The first few nights in New York City were louder than anything I had ever known. Sirens wailed endlessly, car horns screamed, and the hum of a million lives moving together felt suffocating.
