Coming to the house or village of inhabitants, visitors are welcomed well. The people always to say “Hello” Mister and Miss. when you come to their village. Chewing Betel leaves and areca nut (special for the women) and offering smoking local cigarette (special for the man) have also become a tradition in Lembata. They are part of opening meals as well as to welcome guests into their house (ga malu) and smoking local cigarette [isap koli tembakau). It is very unique, also symbolizes their pride and adulthood. This tradition takes place for long time ago and still exists at the present. Even, it is considered to be offending the host when a guest refuses eating betel leaves and areca nut.
