Ecuador and I have reached our bittersweet end. Tomorrow I sit on a bus for an as-of-now undetermined amount of hours (but at least 10) to cross the border into Colombia.
In the last month I have...
Lived, worked, interviewed, studied, smiled, and played with puppies in an indigenous community of 80 families.
Translated tours of my one-month home, a permaculture farm.
Washed my clothes via bicycle-power.
Wrote a 35-page document in Spanish.
Gotten lost in the cloud forest.
Played the cello (!)
Had good conversation.
Had a picnic at 3850m and discovered the delicious combination of avocado and peanut butter (try it!).
Unexpectedly ran in to someone from my hometown on a street in Cuenca, Ecuador.
Went night swimming in the Pacific and lost my clothes and shoes to the tide.
Met good people.
Found sand in my ears for a week... and counting.
Everything sounds amazing! Cant wait to hear more (especially about bike power)!
