Curvy Tea, by Greg Goodman
While backpacking through Malaysia, I managed to break the world’s largest flower, get a self-diagnosed case of swine flu and take a tour BOH Tea Plantation in Tana Rata. With a sea of green tea fields and spots of workers’ heads stretching into the horizon, the plantation was a scene of unparalleled tranquility and beauty. I was especially enchanted by the narrow dirt roads that parted the rows of tea to allow farming vehicles and my tour jeep to pass through: a wonderful blend of nature and humanity.

Greg Goodman’s passion for travel and photography is deeply rooted in early-childhood family vacations, when his parents gave him a 110mm film camera to keep him entertained. Growing up in New York City continues to influence Greg’s choice of subject matter, as he is particularly drawn to cityscapes, buildings, bridges, transportation methods, decay, manmade objects and nature’s interaction with humanity.
In addition to his photographic work being featured in numerous exhibitions, events and publications, Greg frequently updates the digital magazine of his life – Adventures of a GoodMan .com – with stories, photographs, travel journals and videos from numerous backpacking trips abroad…and life’s adventures at home.
