What is it?

It is awesome for me to be able to watch as people discover what café life is about in Lisbon. Is it trying the Pasteis de Belém for the first time? Is it seeing if you are tough enough to drink a bica without sugar? Is it the jolt of caffine that you have after departure?

Could it be that there is so much more to it? Could the café life be about 83 new friendships that have been developed in the past week and a half? Could it be about sitting for hours without the worry of what your schedule says is coming up? Could it be that café life is so stinkin' awesome because we are allowed to yield long enough to be able to intersect with those around us?
