Samsara Cafe, Antigua, Guatemala

Full of interesting, esoteric imagery, Samsara is a cafe for the mindful. It has amazing food with vegan options, smoothies with probiotic options and of course, fantastic coffee. Everything a weary and under nourished traveller could want, right in the middle of the World Heritage town of Antigua in Guatemala.

I was travelling with 3 other fellas when I first arrived in Antigua. We'd just stayed in a backpackers hostel on Isla Flores in the country's north-east, had an early morning at the amazing Tikal Mayan site, and then caught the night bus from there to Antigua. We were sleep deprived and had not eaten well for probably 36 hours, so when we stumbled upon Samara cafe, we went for it and were very pleasantly surprised...
