In November, Dutch television presenter Floortje Dessing was a guest at hospital San Miguel to film an episode of her programme 'Floortje naar het einde van de wereld' ('Floortje to the End of the World'). It turned out to be a remarkable visit.

The personal story of Jacob and Carolien van der Ende — the founders of Quina Care and hospital San Miguel — made the journey to Puerto el Carmen in Ecuador more than worthwhile for her.
