http://peacecorrie.blogspot.com/2010/07/goodbye-jungle-and-guayzimi-fotos.html
Asi es MI vida. Thursday, July 22, 2010. Goodbye Jungle and Guayzimi Fotos. Last weekend a bunch of the volunteers from the cluster came down to have a despedida with us in Guayzimi. We did a great jungle hike up a waterfall and through the jungle to a tire swing and see some awesome trees and wildlife. We had to cross this river to get to the. Waterfall, or pails. It was cool because there were two pools up on the waterfall and the water would come rushing down, like pails full of water. Here is Chris w...

http://peacecorrie.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Asi es MI vida. Sunday, October 25, 2009. Shakira has hit Yantzaza and has hit it hard. We are now in She Wolf mode. I realize that this ridiculously addicting song has probably been in the States for a while now, but us down in the jungle are feeling that She Wolf in the. And letting it out so it can breathe (check out the song if you don´t know what I´m talking about). Grigs could definitely compete on a MTV quiz show. ANYWAY, he brings this little cd to my attention and it just BLEW ME AWAY! So after ...

Asi es MI vida. Friday, October 22, 2010. It's been over two months. It's been over two months since I've spoken Spanish for more than two hours. It's been over two months since I've ridden public transportation. It's been over two months since I've been kissed. My life has completely changed within these past two months. So sorry for the delay. I needed these few months to digest everything that's happened. I've taken a couple of trips.hoping to take more. It's been nice just being in on...Linda, the wo...

Peace Corrie: December 2009

Asi es MI vida. Wednesday, December 30, 2009. Well, being home has been quite the experience. I have eaten so much delicious food (including TWO visits to Chipotle mmmm), seen so many family members (holla to all the aunts and cousins and grandma! And walked through some REALLY REALLY cold snow(Many asked if I was experiencing culture shock.more shock because of the cold temperatures, not the culture necessarily). But it was all worth the two day travel to humble little Cincinnati, Ohio. I am flying back...

Asi es MI vida. Monday, July 12, 2010. Well now that I have more or less Quince Días left in Ecuador, I have started to go into Despedida Mode.

Asi es MI vida. Tuesday, April 27, 2010. Thanks Mom for the dying kit.the kids loved them! They had no idea that we did this, or why we would color eggs.but they had a blast! We boiled a few, but then I realized we didn´t need to boil all of the eggs, because they could eat them the next day anyway (why do we always boil the eggs? For refrigeration or just good egg salads the next day? Ah the infamous ¨dance pictures¨. These are from when the teachers did their little baile in front of, um,...I took my g...

Asi es MI vida. Tuesday, August 3, 2010. Woo Deep breath, Corrie. Well everyone, it's been a magical two years. I am in Quito right now, doing all the paperwork and running around to get my shit finalized.

Quito's been decent though. Just trying to get this all done! I am a 2008 graduate of...
