Culture, Coffee, Monk

โ€”

If you need the interior of your private jetย or Rolls Royce redone you should totally get in touch with Kenneth Justice from Culture Monk.ย  True story. ย We met him last Saturdayย onย his worldย coffee tour,ย and that was one of the many unexpected tidbits he shared with us.ย ย Atlanta was theย first stop on his tour, which means we won because obviously Atlanta is better.ย ย I’m kidding –ย Dewey Decimal’s Butler won because she saw him first that day atย Cafe Intermezzo.

Here are a few other things we learned about our philosophical blogger pal:ย ย the Culture Monk is also a design monk,ย real estate monk,ย former addictions counselor, and the kind of dad whose daughterย is already a serious artist becauseย “no games except on Saturday.” ย He’s honest, funny and passionate about connecting with people – someone you instantly want to be friends with.ย  AND he wears Converse kicks and holey jeans that areย perfectly lived in! ย Kenneth is aย dreamer of the best sort:ย  the kindย who LIVESย their dream, andย inspiresย othersย toย followย their own.

I’m really glad we got to spend some time with him, and I hope you’ll get to do the same.

Here are some ways to get involved in his journey across the globe:

follow his blog

read his post about his visit to Atlanta

follow him on Twitter

like him on Facebook

show up at one of the coffee houses on his tour

I think you’ll be very happy you did.

  1. I already do – its a brilliant blog!

  2. Sounds like fun! I’ve always enjoyed meeting online people in the real world.

    1. Me, too. In a creepy-stalky kind of way.

      1. Even when some of them don’t seem to fully appreciate your spectacular hat.
        Or boutonniere.

      2. Thank God for the hat! It told me straight away who I was dealing with. And, in a way, I suppose the boutonniere served the same function for you.

      3. *looks nervously over shoulder*

  3. I’ll be watching the Portland, Ore. time/place, even though it’s 3 hours away. It’s worth it for good coffee and conversation. Hey, If I got enough people and good coffee, I wonder if Kenneth would show up at my house?

    1. Totally worth it! And please put me on the list for your house : )

      1. Done! And remember that we Oregonians are well known for our…
        uh…
        Mushroom coffee..?

      2. Hahaha – now it’s starting to sound like a different kind of gathering. One that would literally end with “and then there was a giant explosion.” : )

      3. HaHa! Mushrooms give me gas, so you’re not too far off the mark. Although I have to say I’ve never tried any of “those” mushrooms. I prefer my hallucinogens to come in liquid form. Plus, I’m way too scared of poisoning myself or, at the very least, eating something a deer peed on.

    Sorry to have missed you, Molly. I was hoping to meet you as well because I wanted to hear more about your circus life, etc. We’ll have to meet up some other time.

    1. Same here! I was planning on going to the 9 AM but I had to switch it to the 2 PM location. But yes let’s get in touch and get together!

        Awesome. I’m also jonesing to get back to Intermezzo. That was my first time there, and I’m in love.

      2. I love it too and I haven’t been there in years. We can DM or e-mail our digits : ). I’m at @mollytopia and info@mollytopia.com

  5. I love Culture Monk! I can’t wait to meet him when he comes to Chicagoland!

  6. Whaaaaa…I got to stay hip in the blogger world. Consider him FOLLOWED. ๐Ÿ™‚
