From there, a friend and I were curious about life on other farms, and planned a trip around the southern part of the country visiting organic ventures. We visited coffee and tea plantations, wildlife parks, ancient temples and ruins and rode so many modes of transport that I can no longer recall them all. Join us to hear more of Julia’s adventure!
