After meeting the local family and tasting your first drink you will start helping the family with preparing the meal. Just watching, making notes and taking pictures is also possible.

Enjoy communicating with the family who speak at least some basic English. Learn about daily life or anything you would like to know, including sharing some things about yourself and your home country. Most local families find it very interesting to hear about other cultures. By taking part in this experience, you'll be supporting a cause that's World Fair Trade Organization accredited.
