Take a step back in time and learn the traditional techniques for bee keeping before building your own Hive. After a delicious traditional lunch learn the art of candle dipping and create your own to take home.
- Azizi Life - Immerse yourself in the life of a beekeeping cooperative for a day. Your adventure starts with a journey to a local village, where you and your Azizi Life translator will receive a warm welcome from the cooperative’s members. Following greetings from your host, you’ll embark on a morning filled with household tasks. Fetch water from the mountain spring, set up the fire for candle making, and gather materials while learning to construct a traditional beehive.
When the sun reaches its zenith, you’ll sit down for a modest meal with the family you’re visiting, providing an excellent opportunity to converse and discover more about each other’s cultures. Post-lunch, you’ll spend the afternoon with the artisan group crafting candles. They’ll guide you through the wax preparation process, and you’ll have the chance to create your own set of beeswax candles to take home. The experience of crafting alongside the artisans, sharing in the laughter and creativity, is sure to be a highlight of your day.
