Giving away a little bit of True Tea to total strangers through the AirBnB network.
Whenever I travel outside China I tend to use AirBnB for a more homely and authentic experience. Usually the host has lovingly accessorised their space with a few extras for their guests but they NEVER have good tea.
So I have got into the habit of leaving good tea wherever I stay so that I may either bring the revelation of true tea to an unsuspecting newbie or make a Teahead very happy.

The tea I gave was Young Gushu 2016
