El Viaje
Description
Crisscrossing the geographically diverse nation of Ecuador, this program follows the travels of a radio journalist who, while making his living in Quito, the capital city, has always dreamed of visiting remote places in which his broadcasts are heard. Viewers discover ways to ask for and discuss travel information in Spanish, as well as helpful words and phrases for marketplace bargaining and for appreciating the craftsmanship with which many rural Ecuadorians support themselves. Local spiritual and religious traditions are also explored as the journalist compiles and completes a radio report on his adventure.
