In this short movie I have incorporated footage and photographs from the seven months I spent in Ecuador. The video highlights the main components and aspects of my Global Citizen Year: learning, giving back, exchange, uniting, adventure, exploring and experiencing the Ecuadorian culture. The footage includes clips of a salsa class the fellows participated in, my apprenticeship teaching in the mobile classroom and working with elementary and high school school students, excursions with the Ecuador fellows to the Amazon, roasting guinea pigs with my host family - an Ecuadorian delicacy, and an indigenous music festival.
The title of the video, "What would you do with a year?" is inspired by the words of Clara Sekowski, a Senegal fellow who initially used this phrase on a t-shirt for her fundraising campaign, and also to inspire the fellows before heading off to our assigned countries in September.
i love this peter =-)
