It is true that we could not communicate, but we showed them the way of living our life which they found strange. Then, a magical bond was formed between us. Communication gestures because there were villages where no one spoke French. Afterwards, everything remains human, for example they knew we needed to sleep. At times, they gave us vegetables and fruits”, Explain to two tourists.
