    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are Saraguro indigenous people. The Saraguro culture is one of the most prominent indigenous communities in Ecuador, located mainly in the province of Loja. Their cultural wealth is expressed in their clothing, traditions, gastronomy and worldview, which have endured through the centuries.

    There are many tourist attractions in the area that are easily accessible and there is also public transportation, and we also have transportation to facilitate the mobility of our volunteers. We forgot to mention that we are young people who love to share experiences with foreign people,
