“My experience was amazing, definitely one of the highlights of my trip. The store is located away from the touristy areas and the hustle of the city so the calmer, foreign vibes you get walking through the streets from the train station to the store (just a few mins away) first stood out to me. The store itself was really calm and cozy, with lots of antique items on display. I really liked that it was a real tea house and not like a classroom or something so the experience definitely felt abit more authentic and raw and less commercialised. Ko was very friendly, speaks perfect English and he knows…”
