Cuenca, Ecuador in the Azuay Province of Ecuador is the third largest city in Ecuador and our home for the last four and half years.
This walk-thru video was taken in July, 2015 of the main market called "Feria Libre." The goal of the video was simply to capture a slice of life without commentary in order to share with friends, but the more I've watched it, the more I catch each time. Check it out, what do you see?
There are 8 'cuts' when I stopped and restarted the video in order to keep the file sizes small, but there is only a moment lost on each.
There are a lot of things to see during the 15+minute walk, so please comment with questions and observations about what you notice!
Here are some things I noticed this last time I watched it in order of appearance. Do you see them?
