I once picked tea. It wasn’t easy. No, it was downright difficult. And I just did it for a lark, not for a living.
This reminds me of the twitter account New York Times Without Context. It makes an interesting narratitve all together and lets your mind wander.
I like the article about break-ups, which the intern of Natalie has sent. She might just be thinking it is funny, in a quite cynical way, what would tell me, that the intern might be an interesting person.
I could definitely use a vacation in Sri Lanka…one day!

Yes, Taste of France is correct: Plucking tea is not easy, and tea plantations in India and Sri Lanka are a major site of the economic exploitation of women (and, in most cases, child workers).
