Hey y’all,

Tomorrow we will be traveling back home 🙁 . Traveling to Riobamba, Ecuador has been a great experience and we’ve enjoyed our time here. I, along with my peers, have learned many things on this trip, like how hot water is a luxury. There are not enough words to describe the experience that we’ve had here but in short, this has been an eye opening and beautiful trip. We have explored the mountain tops and the city streets, we have met many different Ecuadorians and gotten the chance to learn how they operate every day. We embraced their culture with open arms and most importantly each other. We have a created a bond with each other that time nor distance can break. I’m thankful for this trip but more importantly the people that I’ve met on this trip, they are truly amazing and I love each and everyone. Even so, it’s safe to say we all miss home, so with that said family and friends we’ll see you soon.
