Visiting Rotarians from Mexico hosted

Team of 5 Rotarians came from Rotray Club of Delicias and Chihuahua, Mexico to visit our District 3202. We hosted one of them,Rotarian David Lopez in the residence of our member ,Rotarian Narayanan Kutty. We took David and his Companion Dr.Jose Luis also to several locations in and around Payyanur, to show them our indigenous culture and practises. We even treated them to a traditional Kerala lunch served traditional style in a banana leaf.
 They arrived on Feb 12th. On 13th we had a meeting with them at Rotray Bhavan, Payyanur, which was hosted by RC Payyanur where we exchanged flags and ideas.
This Kind of interaction with other country men promotes interaction, peace and goodwill.
