Baltazar Ushca, known as "the last iceman of Chimborazo," is an emblematic figure in Ecuador, whose story has captivated both Ecuadorians and people around the world. His recent passing not only marks the end of an ancient trade, but also prompts deep reflection on the importance of our roots, traditions, and the relationship between humans and nature.

Ecuador is a country that dazzles not only with its natural diversity but also with the richness of its cultural and archaeological heritage. From the majestic Inca ruins in the Andean highlands to the coastal civilizations that flourished thousands of years ago, Ecuador's archaeological remnants tell the story of ancient peoples who left an indelible mark on time.

Ecuador, a country rich in biodiversity and culture, is also home to one of the most precious treasures: the fine aroma cocoa, known worldwide as Cacao Arriba. Since pre-Columbian times, this cocoa has been a fundamental part of Ecuadorian history, and today, you can be part of this fascinating tradition.

Every year, the Ecuadorian coasts become the stage for one of nature's most fascinating spectacles: the arrival of humpback whales. Between the months of June and October, these majestic marine mammals migrate from the cold waters of Antarctica to the warm waters of the Ecuadorian Pacific, especially in the regions of Manabi, Esmeraldas and the Galapagos Islands.
