Darjeeling

It was a must, a classic, we had to go through Darjeeling. Famous for it's endless tea fields in the mountains and for the worlds' best tea, Darjeeling is a nice town that definately has the mountain feel. A top its 2100m and with its vertigo giving view, it's a nice place to relax. Since Julien was leaving soon, we only spent a day and a half, just enough to visit the Happy Valley Tea Estate, which its best brew can be sold for a much as 250$ per kilo. A very nice lady explained us everything about tea, which is quite complicated when you really get into it. I petted a blind cat the whole time. Next I leave for Nepal...alone as Carlos is going to China and Julien back home, I'll miss you guys!
