We are here!



Wow! We are finally here. So far, eight members of the team have arrived in Guatemala. Through conversations, we all share the enthusiasm of being in Guatemala, and we are definitely looking forward to our experience for the rest of the week, including the rest of the partners later tonight!

Over lunch, some of us jotted down some quick notes to share with you what’s on our mind right now… just off the plane and preparing to experience a little bit of Guatemala on our very first day here:

“I cannot believe the trip is finally here. It was amazing to look out my window when flying in to see how beautiful Guatemala is. It is so great to meet so many people that are just as passionate about Starbucks as I am. I am so excited to experience so many life changing things this week” – Anne, Starbucks partner

“Guatemala is beautiful! To see a volcano from my plane window was something I never thought I would see. I cannot express how blessed I am to have this opportunity. I can’t wait for the days to come” – Hilary, Starbucks partner

Go team! I am really looking forward to hearing about what you see, think and experience. Be the eyes and ears for those of us that cannot be there but would love to be engaged in the trip nevertheless.
