The tea lounge
I would love to "retire" from Software Engineering at a certain point and open a Tea shop with a focus on growing the craft.
- I want to teach people to brew better and introduce them to fine tea.
- I want a place where people can be at 10pm and not be expected to drink alcohol or buy food.
- I want to sit in a park like Baisao and bring beauty in to peoples' lives.
It will take me a while to get here, please be patient.
