Tea Diplomacy
Taiwan is known for producing the finest tea, and to perfect in growing tea is certainly not an easy task. This morning, let's join a tea farmer from the other side of the globe on a learning session in Hualian, to gain more knowledge about the tea culture.
This is the young tea farmer who came all the way from Switzerland.
Picking at the tealeaves with ease and competence, Juliet has been learning at the Wuhe Tea Farm for over a week, learning the ropes of tea production from tea picking, roasting, to brewing.
She is one of the grassroots representatives from the International Youth Exchange Association and is very happy that she has chosen to come to Taiwan to learn such skill.
Despite language barriers, Juliet's mentor, Mr. Gao, has been very pleased with his apprentice.
Also, in order to make Wuhe tea more international, Mr. Gao thinks that brushing up his English will be a must in the near future.
Juliet is planning on staying in Taiwan for two months, and during these two months, she will also be going to Jian Township to experience flower growing.
According to her, this experience in Taiwan will be one of the best memories in her life.
