So, as promised, here is my Ecuador blog. It exists, though I can make no promises about how frequently I'll update.


I leave tomorrow morning (7:45am), and I still haven't done my summer reading. Whoops. The good news is that most of the students from my program have the same flight from Miami to Quito, so we will all be able to meet up before arriving. It just means I won't finish my summer reading.

Anyway, it is unclear at this point how much access to internet I'll have when I go. I understand there are vast amounts of internet cafe's, and I may or may not have internet access at my homestays. So no worries if you don't hear from me for a while. I'm either sitting in my house without internet, or in the jungle.


It's surreal that I'm leaving tomorrow... Studying abroad has always been such an epic, distant concept, and I'm having a hard time understanding that it's tomorrow. Cross your fingers that I don't encounter any rabid dogs on my way to the airport tomorrow...
