Nicholas Crowder began his Ecuadorian experiences more than 25 years ago after studying at the American Graduate School of International Management. Selling automotive and industrial parts throughout Ecuador in the early 1980s and marrying an Ecuadorian, provided him an insight into the culture not seen by most outsiders. He was enthralled with the beauty and diversity of the country and this has led to a long-term observation and study of Ecuador.
