ACTIVITIES IN VICOS

The man will be your personal guide throughout the days and explain you everything about his life. He will show you his lands and the crops he grows on them. He will introduce you to his family and tell you about his kids. You will see them coming back from school and you might even find yourself helping them with their homework or with the household tasks they receive from their mother.
