Cute dogs are also family members 
! !
Yunnan Province is home to many ethnic minorities.
This time, I was able to interact with the families of Mr. Oshie from the Hani tribe and Mr. Kirisuke from the Jino tribe.
A traditional house on stilts.
Near the house, there are many old tea trees that must have been planted and nurtured by the ancestors of the tribe, and they continue to be used as necessities for living.
We were treated to bamboo tea, which has been handed down from generation to generation.
The slightly fragrant and sweet taste of freshly made bamboo canister tea.
Above all, I was deeply moved by the heart that warmly welcomed us, strangers who came all the way from far away. 
.
People weren't the only ones who greeted us when we visited.
From the first tea picking to the time we left, this white dog was by our side.
A brown dog who fell asleep without twitching even when he was talking while drinking bamboo tea.
I thought that these dogs are also members of the Hani and Gino families who continue to live with old tree tea.
