Quito

Sunday, September 30th, 2007

So I think there is a rule that the minute you take a step out of your world you intantly get what you need the most when you arrive at your destination..

It´s a liitle suprising when you walk into an office in another country and find out that you have a chance to make a difference that you were bitching about not making a week before.  Then to try and express that in Spanish and English through an interpreter.  Cañ´t wait to learn this language so I won´t be limited to äsking people how much stuff costs and how they are..

                       

last minute details

Sunday, September 30th, 2007

It’s about time to go and I have been busy trying to remember everything I need to do and who I need to contact.

I did manage to see a few people before I leave but on the whole it’s been a little tough getting a hold of people and I struggle a little bit trying to remember who I should contact and who is busy enough that I just email. The list is a list and I have been trying to take care of it bit by bit.

Right now it’s call a shuttle for tommorow, repack my stuff and decide to bring one bag or two. But in the back of my mind I am thinking of different people and what I would like to talk to them about.

Also there is trying to set something up for when I get back.. Denver, the mountains, somewhere else. Trying to find a place is hard when you arn’t sure what your up to!

So I’m leaving it the way it is, going to Ecuador and then figuring it out!
