Got my Visa!
I am leaving on January 5th. I can't wait! I fly from Chicago to Miami to Quito, Ecuador where I will meet up with my host family.
I got my assigned host family and have been talking with them. I will be living with a doctor named Nancy, her daughter Fernanda, who is 35, and Fernanda's son Camillo who is 8! They seem like such amazing people who share so many of my interests! They already have so much planned for me!
They do not speak much English, so this will be a cool challenge!
I am in the process of packing, so we'll see how this goes.
2 bags for 5.5 months
This may be my toughest packing job yet.
Dena,
ReplyDeleteTu madre y yo contentos de que han llegado a Quito con seguridad. Di hola a Nancy y su familia, por favor.
(Mom and I are glad that you have arrived safely in Quito. Please say hello to Nancy and her family)
¡La aventura empieza! (The adventure begins!)
Divertirse, estar a salvo, y aprender mucho. (Have a good time, be safe, and learn a lot).
Con Amor,
Dad, Mom, Becky, and Ellie
