How to pay?

Currently, all payments are made in cash directly to the host families.

How to overcome the language barrier?

Very good point. We select our hosts with the condition that at least one person from the family should speak English. Although many of them are not proficient or fluent in foreign languages, but that is the beauty of traveling too, when people are able to communicate with unfamiliar groups. However, in this regard, we offer the following solutions:

I have other plans on the same day. Can I adjust the event time?

You're an honored guest, and you'll be treated as such. Locals are very accommodating and will make efforts to ensure you're comfortable. While the event is scheduled from X:XX PM - Y:YY PM, they are flexible! You decide how long you want to stay and participate. Simply communicate with the Hosts to coordinate the arrival time.

Can I take videos and photos?

Absolutely! In fact, we encourage you to capture quality photos and videos to reminisce about later. We appreciate user-generated content, so please tag us in anything you share @likelocal.io!
