Azizi Life ExperiencesThe days starts with a briefing before driving the village where you will be welcome by the artisans and try your hand at some subsistence farming . Then you will join the locals to fetch water and have the opportunity to help with food preparation. Lunch will be served and this will be local Rwandan food that the family would normally eat.
