Adios

As most of you know, I left Peace Corps Ecuador at the end of January. It was an honor and a pleasure getting to know Ecuador, and I will always remember my months in the Valle de Casanga. To my wonderful host family, los Quevedos, and the singular Profesora Meny, thank-you so much for your friendship. It was a pleasure to know you. I can't thank-you enough. Knowing you was the best part of my Ecuadorian life. Mil gracias para su amistad. Fue un placer conocerse. No hay como agredecerse suficamente, pero creame, ustedes fueron los mejores partes de mi vida ecuatoriana.

I write today from my new room at my old alma mater where I am once again a student, fresh from orientation as a law student. I am so excited to begin my legal training, and I hope the horizon-expanding experience that was Peace Corps will keep me grounded and compassionate in my career as an attorney.

Thank-you to all of you who read my blog, and in so doing, furthered the Peace Corps mission to bring the experience back to the States. I hope my stories pleased you, and I hope you know your comments were greatly appreciated.

Chao, y nos vemos!
