Tigers, Tattoos & Black Coffee
Anu contemplates the intention of Nagpur’s clouds with a cup of black coffee at her feet!
I’m a tattoo artist, a barista, and owner of Tiger Way Coffee, currently locked down in Nagpur.
So here I sit on my stoop, dark skies above, watching the rain come down and the wind blowing in the trees. It’s definitely summer here but this weather makes it easy to forget that just a few hours before, it was a blazing 40 degrees.
Sketch of my new tattoo on my lap (it’ll be the 18th, but who’s counting…), pencil in hand and a steaming cup of fresh, hand ground, black coffee at my feet. Forced relaxation. I guess someone up there knew I needed it. “Stressed, blessed and coffee obsessed.”
