Who keeps the residency running?

As we have known in our last episode of ALMA's Little Universe, OSF staff, during their shifts, are provided with many services that guarantee their comfort and proper work in the heights of the Atacama Desert. 

In this episode, Maryluz Jara, a Hospitality Services Coordinator, explains how they provide all the food, cleaning, maintenance, and transportation services and prepare everything for any eventuality. 

Let's discover how this essential task allows ALMA to be hospitable and habitable in a hidden place.
