Continued from April Adventures Pt.I: Unfortunately, we did not get to spend too much time in  Gurué, but we did approveitar our time there to explore the hike that leads you to a waterfall. Along the way, we admired the yards of endless tea fields, the bamboo jungles, and the local community that lives on the mountain. This hike was hands down, the most beautiful and stunning hike I've ever been on! These pictures are pretty great but it doesn't even compare to the beauty that we witnessed firsthand. It was unreal. At one point of the hike, we were taking turns singing a terribly off-key rendition of Colors of the Wind , ahahah!  Tea fields as far as the eye can see Women washing laundry by the river Jay & Brian Bamboo!
