Quai des Bulles, Quebec Artisan Soap

I wrote an article about my face skin problem and I proudly announce to you that it is no longer a problem. Is it solved? Am I cured? Has my skin become dewy and flawless?

Brought up in Indonesia, the 4th biggest coffee producer in the world, coffee has become a natural part of my daily life. It’s like one of the basic and fundamental things in life, next to health and donuts. I didn’t know how vital the role of a cup of good coffee in my life was until I immigrated ...
