She needs to approach this with a "how can I make this work" rather than a "this is how I am and if you don't like it tough" attitude.
Yes I will most certainly try to keep that attitude, I do want to make this work, that is one of the reasons I started this thread. I could have just decided to be rude about it, or eat meat, or I could have even just decided to spare myself the trouble and stay home watch some tv, go to the mall, go swimming whatever.

These people may not be dumb, but they may be proud. That's something that can be dealt with if you know what you are doing. It's something that you have to deal with carefully. In order to go and have a good experience, she needs to do more research now from people who have been to the rural villages in this area.
I agree of course their not stupid. There are not many people around here who have been down there. However the people who have are largely inaccesible at the moment being away in other parts of the country right now, and no I do not have phone numbers or e-mail addresses. Other than that thank you for giving your input it's nice to hear another persons opinion who has been on missions trips before.

Okay I would like to reply to you CF#5 and you Weatherlight but at the moment I don't have the time to reply, sorry . Thanks all anyway!
