A Chippy Tea
Rolling hills of long grass and shrubland give way to dunes of crisp, golden sand. Sand that singes your feet as you saunter across it. Heading towards the ocean, a cooling, salty breeze refreshes the skin and stings the eyes. As you leave the trail, heading towards the beach, the smell of farmland gives way to an earthy, umami scent of seaweed filling the olfactory glands. Sunlight dapples in the rockpools around you, as all manner of tiny crustacea play, untroubled by the day-to-day ways of people.
