Well, I’ve been here a week, and boy what a week it has been!
Here are some of the highlights from my time here thus far:
- I got on the wrong bus Tuesday to go to my internship, and was wayyy south of where I should have been. I saw a man walking some goats by the side of the road and some cows grazing in a pasture between houses.
- I went to the Ecuador vs. Argentina football game Wednesday, and it was awesome! Though it rained a lot, Ecuador beat Argentina 2-0!
- Everything with my internship is going a lot better, and while my Spanish speaking skills are far from fluent, I’m understanding more the longer I am here.
- The meal times were hard to adjust to, but I’m finally getting there!
- Someone tried to pick my pockets when I was on the trolley back from Old Town on Monday, but there was nothing for them to get.
I will post pictures soon! If you have any questions or comments, please put them in the comments section!
Until next time,
Megan
