In this episode, I talk about my relationship with coffee — how it started in Portugal, how it changed after moving abroad, and how my morning coffee became a daily ritual. From the perfect Portuguese expresso to my current café de cafeteira, I share how my habits (and taste!) evolved over time.

New Words

• expresso = espresso
• cafeteira = coffee maker (filter coffee machine)
