I have to admit I learned a lot from my Ecuador
experience. At first I was really out of my comfort
zone and thought I would not enjoy myself at all.
My host family was absolutely amazing but they lived
very different then I do. They have cold showers,
their mattresses are not mattresses like the one
I sleep on, they wash their clothes by hand and
their food was primarily soups, rice and beans.
Every morning they get up very early and the rooster
makes sure of that at 4 every morning! It was hard
at first to adapt to but eventually I got into a
routine every day. > |

I have only a few paragraphs to share all of Ecuador
with you....and I'm not even sure where to start,
so maybe I will share just a few thoughts with you
instead of all my adventures...... because adventures
are a many!!! > |

My first impression of Otavalo came as I was being
jostled around in the back of a pick up truck with
my fellow participants on our way to meet our host
families. After being dropped off with Katy and
Farrah I peered through the cloud of dust the truck
created as it left and saw the little town I was
to be staying in. > |

We arrived in Otavalo on Sunday, August 13th. The
ride here was very bumpy and many people were not
feeling very well on the bus ride up, but you can
ask to further elaborate! Once in Otavalo, we were
loaded into the back of a hay truck and whizzed
around the town dropping people off at their host
families houses. Benny was first to be dropped off
along with Farrah and Katey (at their Ecuadorian
mansion!) And Allison and I were the last to be
dropped off. > |
