A former tour leader and musician for 25 years, Joshua is also a DJ and drummer originally from Panajachel in Lake Atitlan, Guatemala. He loves living in Antigua and sharing his insider tips for exploring the city with Remote Year travelers. His favorite Local Experiences are making pizzas with the hot caldera of an active volcano and visiting his hometown during our Lake Atitlan Side Trip. When in town, he recommends trying his favorite local dishes, tostadas with guacamole or pepian (chicken stew).

I became a morning person here as I couldn’t wait to get outside and see the volcanoes, colonial era churches and the ruins. The thing I wasn’t prepared for was how touched I was by the Mayan culture. There was an energy from being in historic and spiritual settings that engulfed me.

Antigua was an amazing experience! The side trips were unforgettable – like the day we spent with the Gonzalez family at their coffee farm – Josh created opportunities to connect across cultures and fall in love with his country. All the Remote Year staff worked hard to create community, make sure we had what we needed, and forge lifelong bonds in the group. I wish I could keep traveling with them!

Whether you’re preparing local dishes in Doña Thelma’s home kitchen, hiking to catch a spectacular sunset at Altamira, or admiring the volcanic crater as you explore Lake Atitlan, after work hours are more exciting in Antigua.
