Coffee in Dalat

Our 'Easyrider', Mui
Delving into great detail about the nature of coffee in Vietnam. Vietnam is the world's fourth largest coffee exporter, and this particular plantation was undergoing its annual harvest. The fruits (yes, coffee is grown as a fruit!) are plucked from the vine by hand; red if ripe, green if otherwise.
Dalat Village,
Southern Vietnam

I traveled with Mui back in June 2003. Not only did we visit coffee plantations near Dalat, but we traveled for 6 days up through the central highlands. Looks like he's still working as an Easy Rider. I hope the very best for him.
