What to remember

Know in advance:

On the terrace, you’ll find many shoes. It is customary to take off your shoes before entering a house. Adapt your clothes to the local culture. In bigger cities, they are more open-minded than in the countryside. Too much skin is not appreciated anywhere
Discuss with each other when you or the local family want to take pictures (and/or post them on social media). Most of the time, everyone is fine with it
Meeting point details will be shared with the booking confirmation and voucher you will receive after the booking is done

Remember to bring:

Don't forget to take your notebook with you to write down all the recipes! And know that the local family will invite you to help with the preparations of your meal
