Whats the best name for a plantation retreat in india?
its set in a working coffee & spice plantation [pepper,cardamom,vanilla] up in the hills of kerala, India. The main wing is set in a 120 year old colonial bungalow. it houses 2 luxury suites in a very laid back and tranquil setting. the other accomodation is in the form of 2 luxury tree houses built on large trees just off the main bungalow. it is extremely private and defenitely deserves a fitting name. Do help me out on this one folks and u could get a free stay here!!!
Sounds beautiful!!! Shangri-La? Or is that too predictable?
How about Chai? I know chai is tea-based (I’m a tea fanatic in America), but somehow the Spices on the plantation are more fitting for tea than coffee. Is there a spiced coffee drink popular in South India???
Oh, and don’t worry about the free stay– I don’t think I can travel so far from Los Angeles!
