Slow, detailed tourism enables us to connect with the people we meet in the communities we visit. Being respectful of these communities, with cultural etiquette shared by our wonderful guides, is critical to facilitating engagement.

I aim for respectful interaction with local artisan communities and others we meet along the way, where hosts tell stories in their own words ands share expertise in workshop environments. It also allows income generation at source for the artisans we visit.

These are ways to deepen cultural experiences for both our hosts and my guests.
