Lost in Zone 1 Guatemala: Rediscovering My Childhood With My Grandfather's Legacy

Walking through Zone 1, Guatemala City, I tried to retrace the footsteps of my childhood memories of my Spanish grandfather, the National Palace, and the restaurant he loved more than anything: Altuna. But what started as a simple nostalgic trip became something deeper. I got lost in some of the most dangerous streets of Zone 1 searching for the original Altuna Restaurant… and for a moment, I felt completely alone. So I stepped inside a small church, whispered a prayer, and asked for guidance. Minutes later, everything changed. God led me exactly where I needed to be... right to the restaurant tied to my grandfather’s memory. This video is about family, faith, heritage, and the beautiful chaos of Guatemala City.
