Great First Week!

We got off to a great start with our group of 8 TMs from all across the country. This first week was dedicated to Grameen, Allegro and a tour of Lake Atitlan. All of the trips were fantastic and the TMs enjoyed seeing the micro-lending, coffee production and the beauty of Lake Atitlan. After Borhan gave a brief history of Grameen, the TMs were able to purchase some of the products. We were also able to hike Volcano Atitlan to see an Allegro coffee sourcing plantation. On Friday we finished the week off with visits to the spiritual centers of the lake, San Marcos and Santiago Atitlan. To make the day even better we enjoyed a swim in a beautiful pool overlooking the lake building up our appetite for a traditional Guatemalan meal.
