  1. This looks like a great place to visit. Beautiful peaceful images. I’ve never been to a tea plantation. Actually, I just started drinking tea this year after my first experience with afternoon tea in London. I’ve been reading and studying about tea since then. I would love to do this.

    1. I drank tea when on my Kilimanjaro trek instead of coffee. It was a real treat every morning when the porters brought it to me every morning. I still drink tea regularly even though I’m home and not high up on Kilimanjaro.
