We all have cherished moments that we revisit over and over again in our minds’ eye.  Moments that remind us of home. Moments that remind us of who we are. For me, one such memory is Mom and her daily dose of tea. For as long as I can remember, Mom had a special cup just for tea.  And she kept special cups for each of us too! Our kitchen housed teacups of all shapes and sizes — each with its own story.

This is what happens across our platform in Asia: a friendly cup of tea becomes the birthplace of dreams, visions, comfort and joy. It’s the stories we share as we sip our Chai.  It’s the encouragement we receive as we open our hearts in a simple cup of culture.

Mom had her ways with tea, but most importantly was that it be served piping hot and enjoyed by all around.  So it’s only natural that I’m a social tea drinker. I drink heaps of it in the company of others.  I’ve grown up loving and appreciating a good cup of tea!

When I travel, I love to try the teas that flavor the nations.

Here in India is no exception.  Not only do they make amazing tea, it’s an integral part of culture.  If you walk in any local Indian district, you’ll find tea vendors with steaming pots of Chai (the national tea).

Chai is this delicious blend of tea infused with spices, milk, and sugar.  Spices like cinnamon, cardamom, ginger and more.  It’s joy and comfort in a cup.

The memories around our daily does of Chai in India will fill my heart for years to come.  Those who’ve shared in tea-time with us throughout the years, have forever left their influence in my life.

This is what happens across our platform in Asia: a friendly cup of tea becomes the birthplace of dreams, visions, comfort and joy. It’s the stories we share as we sip our Chai.  It’s the encouragement we receive as we open our hearts in a simple cup of culture.

Chai – it’s all these little moments that together carry you through not only your day, but a lifetime.  It makes you pause, gently reminds you to slow down, and gives you perspective.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source.

Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don’t look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn’t anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable.
