"When there are special festivities to be celebrated, like a wedding for example, all the inhabitants of our village bring their best clothes and we dance and have fun all day long."
Dextre's daughters, aren't they sweet??
"Our families share a lot of their daily life and knowledge about their environment with our visitors. Our kids play a very important role in that, while at the same time they are learning to communicate with the visitors, which is very good for their development."

"Many of our women don't speak Spanish. But they love to interact with the visitors on their own way, and they learn a lot from each visit."
Fagusta with rima-rima flowers on her hat. They are very rare since they only grow at very high altitudes (around 5000 meters). But they are the most gorgeous flowers I had ever seen!
"Our visitors always like it a lot when they can participate in our daily agricultural activities. They say that in their countries they don't do all that anymore, that it goes all with machines."
Manuel is blowing a hummingbird, honey comes out at the (ripped off) butt.
"Our visitors can always say what they like to do. There are many different activities they can do throughout a day, but we will always do our best that they enjoy them to the fullest!"
