LOST x DRIPNDROOL: TRAVEL EPIPHANIES
At Drip N Drool, coffee and travel are woven into the very fabric of who we are. Much like how coffee beans and tea leaves from diverse origins bloom with unique flavours and characteristics, each cup is a journey waiting to be explored. Roasting profiles and brewing methods become the mapmakers, guiding you through a landscape of sensory discovery.
Travel, too, evokes this spirit of exploration. It's a chance to lose yourself in the unfamiliar, a quest for self-discovery fueled by sights, sounds, and emotions that stay with you long after the journey ends. Similarly, a well-crafted cup of coffee can be a deeply personal experience, awakening memories, stirring emotions, and engaging your senses in a captivating dance.
This collaboration with LOST Magazine is an invitation to rediscover these moments of connection. We'll be embarking on a visual journey, capturing the essence of these epiphanies — powerful thoughts that offer a new perspective on familiar things.

THE VOYAGE EXISTS WITHIN
There are journeys made in the physical world, and then there are journeys made in our inner world. When we travel, we tend to be more aware of our physical experiences: the sights we see, the sounds we hear, the people we meet, or the events that happen. But at the same time, an inner journey happens as well, which we are less aware of. We discover new emotions, fresh ideas, unexpected reactions, or even hidden depths of the self.
BEAUTY LIES IN THE UNKNOWN
Travel allows us to discover new things outside of our comfort zone. It allows us to break the cycle of repetition, and to find new ingredients for life. If we learn to embrace the unknown, then every journey will be full of possibilities.
FORGET ABOUT TIME
We are bound to the confines of time in our daily lives. And so one of the most important things that needs to happen when we travel is to forget about the schedule and the time we have on the clock. Use travel to unlearn the way we think about time. Only when we free ourselves from the shackles of time can we truly reap the benefits of travel.
LET THE UNIVERSE TAKE CONTROL
We are so used to wanting to be in control of life, that it can sometimes be overbearing and stressful. Travel can teach us to let go, to just let things happen as they would, and to flow with the universe. It humbles us because it reminds us that there is a bigger force at play and we don’t always have to fight against it. When we learn to let go, to go with whatever happens on the journey, we actually become stronger.
YOUR JOURNEY BELONGS TO YOU
No two people can have the same journey, even if they went to the same place. In that sense, every single trip is unique to the traveller. Our travel experiences are ours to own, and that’s what makes travel valuable and memorable.
LOST is a magazine about self-discovery through travel. It is a magazine that features real stories, personal reflections and epiphanies from people around the world. It believes that travel isn’t about fancy hotels or tourist destinations, but about immersing oneself in someplace entirely foreign to feel extremely uncomfortable so that one can learn from it. It believes that travel is a state of mind.
