Ecuador...NOT bobo!

I am in Ecudor and I absolutely LOVE it here. I can not even begin to explain what it is. It is so beautiful. Even the poverty and all. I just love it. It has brought back a reminder to me of God´s love for us...and the beauty that He posseses. I have an opportunity to come back in December for a week to help bring Christmas to the children here and I am all in!!! I can not wait. I also have been asked about coming back for a year...well in and out of here during that year. I am really thinking about it. I love it that much. Only problem is that I know very LITTLE spanish!! I don´t know if any of you remember my struggles with trying to learn it in college!! But I am trying and picking up a little. A woman from Spain told me the little I know, I speak well. My hope is to learn more by Decemember. Man, I would love to come back for longer than a week. It´s funny how little I miss about the States...mostly it´s things like my pillow or Ketchup for the food. But I don´t miss my phone or my car...by the way, I would NEVER drive here...SCARY!!! I have met a lot of women who work for SIFAT, the mission organization, who are social workers and even one local who is a social worker and the need on the mountain is so big. And the people are so willing. We are building a day care and also going to day cares and sharing the gospel as well as helping with community kids in the afternoon.
Again, I can´t express enough about how beautiful it is! I wish you could see it for yourselves. I will try to learn how to put some pictures up, but I am afraid they just won´t do justice! By the way, there are also some Ecuadorian hotties here!!!
Gotta Run.
