[quote=Anonymous]Op use this time to chat with your MIL even via google translate. Ask about your DH and how he was growing up. Ask about MIL’s life, her parents etc. It’s good family history to know and you’ll learn a lot about DH but also bc south Asian elders love when people actually talk TO them, ask ABOUT them. So often mothers in those cultures are just seen as cooking machines there to take care of everyone else that I’ve seen them be really touched when an in-law - esp a cultural outsider - takes an interest in them. Also at some point go with your DH to the family vegetable farm and go see where/how they sell wholesale. Why not? It’s an experience. How many days left? Are you just starting your trip or halfway thru etc?[/quote]
