So much has happened since last time I posted.
We stayed in a hostel in Quito the first couple of days there and it was great. Its a huge city. I got to get to know the rest of the volunteers and it´s been really good everyone is really great to get to know them. In quito we visited mitad del mundo (half of the world), and we had typical Ecuadorian food which was delicious! We left there on Saturday morning.
I´m currently living with my host family in a small town near Cayambe where I will be staying for the next 2 1/2 months. I have two younger brothers and the family is extremely nice. They have a lamb and calf that are hand feed and it´s great to be able to feed them. The town is located at the bottom of the extinct volcano of Cayambe and it´s very beautiful there. It chilly during the day and somewhat cold at night, if that makes sense. Tomorrow we start our first training class in language and I´m looking forward to that.
We came into town today to do some sight seeing in the bigger city and to use some fast internet :)
