Your hosts are working professionals, both involved in international development issues, and exceptionally well travelled. Both work from home when not travelling for work. When at home we spend a lot of time in the garden and exploring slow food production - growing, storing and eating. We have a cat and bees - please bear in mind if you have allergies to any of these (or any other allergies, etc.). Quiet time between 10pm and 6am please.
