Living in Atandahaul did not come without challenges, but challenges are what make an adventure. Josh led and organised a bespoke video project which led to one of my greatest experiences I have had in my life and also to meet incredible people all passionate within their own fields. Local people are very friendly and its a part of Ecuador I will always think of as home. Thank you josh for this experience.

Este proceso tiene mucho sentido, un centro de intercambio cultural donde no solo se aprende lo particular de tu interés sino que se preocupa por comprender como habitar en comunidad, un trato muy especial y personas muy bonitas
