I
have had a creative silence for a while from
this blog. Life is full of twists and turns and sometimes they
take you to a place where you need to take a step back to really see
the overall view. During this break I have seen and been in many
interesting tea places, enjoyed great tea moments with awesome
people or just by myself in solitude. So I have not abandoned tea,
vice versa!
I
have a little surprise for you! Let me introduce my 'tea muse' Hanna,
who inspired me to take these pictures
in Kulosaari, a residental area on an island in Helsinki, on a cloudy
autumn day with a few rain drops too. There are many places where one
can enjoy an uplifting
tea moment; just fill a quality thermos with your favorite tea and
head to any place with great scenery. Enjoy the moment in good
company chatting this and that or just calm
down to spend some quality time with yourself. Bring some snacks;
fruits, nuts, a
sandwich or anything you fancy and have a super lunch in fresh air. I
carry my little thermos with
me almost every day everywhere I go. I enjoy a cup of tea on the
train, with my lunch or if I need to wait for something or in any
other situation; if I just feel like having tea to calm me down. I
should buy a better thermos, though. It is really important that you
don't use the same bottle for coffee and tea. Good one is the one
which doesn't infect the subtle flavour of sensitive tea. The bottle
shouldn't be too big either as I need it to fit in my handbag easily.
Something like 0,5 l could be good. I would appreciate any
recommendations!
