What is the homestay condition, are there mosquito nets and sleeping bags provided at homestay?
We try not to bring our influences to the local host. CBT means that the locals will make all the arrangements of bedding like: cushions, mattress, blankets, pillows, mosquito-net, with their own materials. Authentic and simple but clean and safe. Please bring your own sleeping bags to the homestay if you feel the need and it is also recommended for some of the visitors with sensitive skin. For meals, our host will help with cooking and dining, our local guide might have to bring food from Sapa (if they are far away from the market). They have their traditional ways of preparing food and they are all well educated about hygiene, food safety, and cleanliness. Simple as it is, a toilet is placed a few steps from their house, there is a bucket of water for use…please do bring your own toilet paper. Minimizing as many environmental impacts as possible has already been an issue raised and dealt with.
