My 17 yr old son is currently living in Machala through a Rotary Youth Exchange program. He is having a wonderful time and realizing like you, other cultures and lifestyles though different from ours are wonderful to experience. My two older sons learned these same lessons on their respective stays in Australia and Brazil. Congrats. ". Submit a Comment. (Russellville News Democrat Leader, KY)
