I had seen other walks advertised on meetup.com, Ghost walks, Tour of London...etc etc.
I knew that if I was going to go on one it had to be for something I loved.
So when I saw the tea walk I thought...yes this is perfect.
Typically British my whole family drinks tea in bucket loads. Ever since I can remember the drinking of tea has been in my family.
I remember fasting in the morning before church when I was a kid and the breaking the fast with tea and fruits.
The walk started off badly because I forgot to print out the address and was early I got lost.
I walked around in a circle for a while, I thought I was never going to find this meeting point. Just when I had given up and decided to go home I saw Lera I reconsidered her from her picture.
We started with some tea tasting and ended with in a tea house in Liverpool street.
I actually never knew that theses places existed I thought it was just coffee.
I enjoyed the talking part of the walk more than the walking. I think it's ridiculous on my part that I'm a Londoner born and raised and I didn't know any of this.
All in all it was a brilliant day I enjoyed looking at the pictures of the past and comparing them to today. The weather wasn't too bad just a bit windy but, living in London you expect that.
The walk took about 4 hours but to be honest I didn't really notice that, I didn't check the time I was having too much of a great day.
I would definitely recommend anyone who loves tea and wants to revisit their passion for tea or even if you just want to learn more about London (tea wise).
Even through my family loves and drinks tea, I've never tried the ones we tried on this walk. I will definitely look into drinking look into drinking more of this type of tea.
I will be coming again maybe next time I'll bring my mum I think she'd really enjoy it.
