Overview
About Me
Hi! I’m Eshima 🙋🏽♀️
I’m a coffee lover, Q Grader, and founder of Café Perené, a specialty coffee roastery based in my hometown, deep in the Peruvian rainforest.
I grew up surrounded by coffee farms and nature, so coffee has always felt like home to me. I believe one of the simplest and most beautiful ways to connect with others is through a carefully brewed cup ☕
Today, I work closely with producers across the Selva Central, sourcing organic, chemical-free coffee and cacao directly from the people who grow it—many of whom I consider family. Through my work with Café Perené and Antami Coffee Tools, I try to support fair trade, education, and better practices throughout the supply chain.
Yes… I might be a little obsessed with coffee — but for me, it’s more than a passion. It’s a way of life 🤍
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My family and I love to share what we have—our food, our work, our stories, and the knowledge passed down through generations. Couchsurfing feels like a natural extension of that spirit.
I truly enjoy cultural exchange, meaningful conversations over good coffee, learning about other places, and sharing what life is like in the Peruvian rainforest. Whether it’s talking about nature, food, projects, or simple everyday life, I believe the best connections come from kindness, curiosity, and shared moments.
