The coffee beanery


Here is the coffee beanery, or Green Beans coffee company. I stop there quite a bit to get a double mocha...it helps me start my day and reminds me of one thing I love back home: good java. I know the people who work there, all Djiboutian. Uma and Abdi are really nice to me, and I have learned a few Somali words from them. We are not exposed to French and Arabic like I thought we would be...in fact, most locals speak tribal languates or Somali.
