Hi,
My name is Jason Kreiselman, and I’m an RPCV from Omnibus 99.
I’m working with a few other RPCVs on an online, community-based adventure travel guide that leverages the Peace Corps network to promote underdeveloped communities as tourist destinations. The website is www.keteka.com if you want to check it out. It’s still in the development stages, but it’s slowly coming together. Right now, one of the Keteka founders is in Ecuador and he’s trying to connect with current PCVs to identify sites that could potentially benefit from responsible tourism or would otherwise like to help the effort in any way.
If you are a current PCV or know of any current PCVs living in an interesting community that has some tourism potential, could you get in touch with Jack at jack@keteka.com or on his local cell at 095-885-6172 (feel free to just ring and he’ll call you back so you don’t waste your saldo!). Also, if you are an RPCV with strong connections to a community that you think has tourism potential, please get in touch with Jack!
PLEASE feel free to forward this message along or post it in any other PC
Ecuador forum that you know of.
THANKS SO MUCH!!
Jason
