Hello everyone,

I am in the middle of packing and moving, from one house to another, and it is proving to be a nightmare. I look around and wonder why I have so much stuff, why I saved this object, how I will ever pack all of this, and where I will keep that in the new place… If you have ever moved houses, you know how it goes. Finding a new place is just the beginning of a very painful, tiring, and stressful journey, isn’t it?

My housing situation apart, this week I am sharing a new article I just published, written by a new Tea Journey author – Luisa Acorsi. In the article, she talks about how tea inspires the world of perfumery and modern tea-influenced perfume trends. She takes you through the attributes of different teas and how they help the world of perfumes. Do check out the article.
