suggest taking a gift to your hosts.....we were told a long time a go, that when visiting, as you will be, that an appropriate gift is some rice (big as bag as you like), coffee and sugar...sort of protocol...very usable and APPPRECIATED....you can buy all that a shop/ stall near the village ( let your friend buy it at the local price ) and the price of your "gift" stays in the local area...we usually throw some "ciggies" and lollies into the mix as well....
ENJOY your special invite..........
