for all the 녹 차 in korea...

What better way to spend a birthday than by adding years to your life? In order to better understand the elixir of longevity we (Minhui, Eenah, Katie and I) traveled to Boseong Green tea plantation in southern South Korea. None of us knew what to expect as the signs directing us to the plantation were cryptic yet cheerful. After a short walk beneath towering cedars we were found ourselves at the base of a mountain covered in undulating green rows.


  
Look familiar? Tea is derived from Camellia sinensis, a member of the Camellia family. 
Word to all the plant nerds out there.

Green tea ice cream?!

 Legitimately the nicest person I've ever met, Minhui Gwak.
 Tea flight
All in all, a rather relaxing day.
