Socialization and food
The famous travel chef Anthony Bourdain said “If you’re twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel – as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you go”. We agree with him, except on the age restriction. We urge you to be hungry, whoever you are, whatever is your age or your physical condition. We offer you a unique chance to share unforgettable moments with the local community of the island of Ometepe. Cook, live and sleep like a local with this two day homestay tour.
