Chill with me on a rainy Vancouver day ~
Hello hello 👋 so you must be wondering? what dose a girl like me do on a rainyday?
Well it’s a little shameful but I really prefer to be alone, I like to use my free time to work on improving myself, to experience things and take in things to build myself from with in.
So for today I am in Richmond! Richmond is a unique area with a lot of Chinese culture and so most people who work and live in this area speak mandarin. Another interesting fact about Richmond is that the land is underlain made of dense sand and is at the highest risk for earthquakes >o<
Moving forward, on today’s agenda I am visiting a tea house, to work on my blog and to transcribe a book I’ve been reading 📚
So join me at 11am tea house!
this tea house just opened recently so I’m here to taste some new teas! This tea house is a beautiful blend of modern and traditional touches, I felt very comfortable and just had to keep looking around!
Next to the entrance they have a lovely shelf full of wonderful things like incredible beautiful tea sets for sale and many high quality teas for purchase, they also had tea sample to smell. This made it much easier to make a decision, for when I was chosing a tea to have today ~
So looking over the menu,
I was tempted to order the Afternoon Tea Special Package but as you probably already know 😅I work in a Bakery, and I literally make dozens of Basque cheesecakes a day hahaha.
The oolong cold brew is something I would usually go for but it was much to cold this day and I want something new!
Eventually~ I decided on the Xiaoqinggan Puer Tea! I had never tried this kind of tea~ so let me tell you about it !!!
Xiaoqinggan is a unique type of Puer Tea. It is created by hollowing out a tangerine and then filling it with ripe Puer tea leaves and then setting it out to dry and become one 🍊 this tea has many benefits such as lowering blood pressure, weight loss, and cold prevention.I chose this tea because I like citrus <3 and because it can be brewed many times over and still keep its original flavor~
And so for this tea it was $25 dollars, and I will stay for around 4 hours and enjoy my elegant tea jumon-lady~
Since I am the brand model for a coffee shop most people assume that I only like coffee ☕️ but the truth is that I prefer good quality tea, same like my partner and my dad.
One of my goals is to read 100 books.📚
And at the beginning of my quest I truly was so bored but after continuing and committing, i understand my teacher more and now i can feel myself falling in love with the charm of writing, I’m really enjoying these times.
I have dyslexia and have a small problem with reading. I am receiving treatment, and I have made a lot of progress recently, so I can now read and write.
While copy the lines in my favorite book onto paper, I have learned so much more things I used to miss and I’m taking it slow and learning new things everyday!
My boss has read and hand copied the Bible many times, and he always references quotes, he is the most amazing person I know ❤️
Well I kept enjoying multiple brews of my tea still I enjoyed it very much and so to pair with this tea, I ordered Osamanthus oolong Jelly!
These two are a perfect pair~ I even bought a second jelly~ it’s $7 for one jelly but it’s fair considering how cute this tea cup it came in!!! Very tasty and great experience!
This is my favorite tea house and I can’t wait to go back and try more ~ Take care everyone and have a good night.
also I have some news! I’m going to Korea soon so I will definitely posy way more interesting content soon!!!!
