Inspired by Ahmed Sanoussi, owner of Ahmed’s Hair-fashion and fluent in seven languages, the Polyglot Barbershop tells our diasporic stories from Quito, Ecuador. As we leverage our language skills to diversify this small business, we also recognize the need to give voice to our immigrant community. Without them our work is not possible. We are also available for your translation, localization, subtitling, and barber needs.
Our first story, "From Togo to Ecuador with Linguistic Amor," was published in News24, South Africa's largest online news outlet.

Since I've Been Away: Reflections On My Journey From Zambia to Ecuador (Clint Nzala) PT. 1
In our debut podcast, Radio Polyglot Barbershop speaks to Clint Nzala. Having relocated to Quito, Ecuador in 2018 to work in media broadcast, this political analyst and strategist is no stranger to debates about global south relations, politics, and other critical issues. But for now, he’s just trying to get home and COVID-19, like another ongoing global pandemic, is not making his travel plans easy. A one-time university student leader of the 2013 mass protests against government subsidy cuts on fuel, mealie meal (a staple food of Zambia), and monthly university student stipends, Polyglot Barbershop presents Clint Nzala.
