Know before you go
Not everything on the itinerary is possible to do in half a day. Still, the intention is to use as many ad hoc opportunities for cultural interaction as possible. The experience will vary from trip to trip as different homesteads are used; the experience will also vary with the day of the week and the time of the year.
On Sundays, most people attend churches, and there is little commercial or agricultural activity in spring; fields are being ploughed, summer is planting and then weeding season, and after harvesting in autumn, there is little activity in the fields until the following spring. The guide will use his discretion on where to go and when. On cold or rainy days, he may choose options that are more suitable, whilst, on hot summer days, he will keep walking to a minimum.
