Come on home @abake.cafe 

Located at:
2 Webster Ave.
Jersey City, NJ 07307

Everytime I walk into this cafe in The Heights in Jersey City... I feel like I am home.

Peace and Karol have created a warm, inviting, and special atmosphere that welcomes everyone from the community. 

From the amazing selection of books with culture in mind, their Book Club, Peace's knack for creating unique drinks, the delicious pastries, and the many different events Abake hosts. There is so much to love!

This is more than a cafe, it is a neighborhood gem 💎

I have met so many interesting, talented, and creative people here that value the human connection.

If you find yourself in Jersey City, come to The Heights, and make yourself at home at Abake.

May in a frame. 📸

Lately I’ve been challenging myself to take at least one photo a day. Somewhere along the way, I think we stopped documenting moments and started scrolling past them.

Photography has always been a reminder to slow down and pay attention. A smile, a conversation, a place you visited, a random afternoon that felt ordinary at the time—these are the moments that quietly shape our lives.

This is a recap of May through my lens. A reminder to capture more, look back more often, and hold on to the memories that make the journey worth it.

What moments did you save this month?
