Breaking up with Ecuador

I feel like I´m breaking up with Ecuador. This country that, by the time I leave, will have been my home for 2 and a half years. I don´t leave for good for another 3 months, but I know that that time will go by so quickly. I feel that I´ve definitely taken adavantage of my time here, and while I haven´t done everything that can be done in Ecuador (never made it to Esmeraldas, and prob. won´t), I won´t leave with a backpack of regrets.

It is so nice to finally be able to tell people that I at least have a vague plan for my future – go back to the States, look for a job, etc. But the other night I met these guys, and they were like, wait, you like living in Ecuador and you speak Spanish; why are you leaving?!?! The only thing I could say is “ya es la hora, es la hora.” “It´s just time. It´s time.”
