How to make coconut oil from scratch 🥥

During our stay in LazyBeach, Anthony and I had the chance to attend a coconut oil workshop only a few weeks ago to which some guests invited us to. After it, it felt so easy and natural, that I thought it might be a nice idea to try and make our own coconut oil so we could bring some with us. So I asked Da, the guy on charge of the workshop, if I could borrow his tools to make some for myself, and set ourselves to work. Nevertheless, on the way of searching for the equipment, bumped into the woman that helped him with the workshop previously, and while I was asking her how to fetch all the tools together, she ended up helping us all the way to our oil (and even invited us to some coconuts), so the result and progress was indeed more professional and successful than the previous thought. She was such a lovely woman (no word of english, of course) and we had such a nice time, and a pretty cool result.
