“"You could feel a different energy in Machupicchu," emphasized Anthony Ramos, who, along with Dominique Fishback and many other members of the production, took part in a sacred ritual at this destination, where a local shaman performed the ancient ceremony of gratitude to the earth, a heritage of the Inka culture.
