In the hustle and bustle of this busy world, it’s important to remember to slow down and appreciate the things around you. The simplicity and beauty of the Camellia Tea Bar website is an example of this. As you browse around, you find yourself slowing down to enjoy what you are looking at. This may stem from the beauty of the area from which they harvest their tea. Pour yourself a cuppa, read their interview, and then be sure to see their website.
