After writing about interior design, home furnishing, and architecture, since October 2022 I've had the pleasure of focusing daily on my favorite beverage, tea.

In my writings, I aim to answer frequently asked questions and embark on imaginary journeys—until my great dream of traveling to a tea garden comes true.

Otherwise, you can often find me at the cinema, diving into other worlds, and I practice foreign languages daily (mainly French, sometimes Spanish or Dutch). Just as language is a tool that brings people together, in my eyes, a wonderful yet simple cup of tea also creates warm connections and pure conviviality.

When it comes to tea varieties, I keep it classic: I love black tea! My favorites are Nandana, a pure tea from Assam, and the delicately floral Sacred Emily. Since working at P&T, I've discovered a love for white tea: the Pu Er Bai Ya enchanted me at my first tea tasting and is a true delight, hot or cold.
