Welcome: Honest Café Reviews + Life Chats

"Without my morning coffee, I'm just like a dried-up piece of roast goat" - Johann Sebastian Bach

Hey coffee lovers!

Welcome to Coffee and Life Meltdowns, where I rely on coffee to help me thrive, not just survive, in my 20s.

I’m Arte — over-caffeinated, slightly chaotic, and almost ready to graduate university (woohoo!). After years of chasing deadlines and oat milk lattes, I decided to turn my love of coffee, fashion, and oversharing into this little corner of the internet.

This blog isn’t just about coffee reviews — though trust me, I’ll be sipping my way through Perth one café at a time. It’s also about navigating the messy, hilarious, and sometimes overwhelming journey of your 20s. Expect honest chats about adulthood, a sprinkle of outfit inspo, sisterly gossip, and lots of “is this normal??” moments.

What you can expect from my caffinated blog:

☕ Coffee reviews from local gems

💬 Life musings & mini existential crises

👯‍♀️ A cozy, judgment-free community

Grab your favourite coffee, mine's an oatmilk cap, settle in and chat about the turmoil of the 20s.

Other than coffee, I love a glass of wine and travel
