Tuesday, May 19, 2009. Freedom, reading – NOT for school, and spending time con mis amigos). Once finals were over, and after mother’s day (which I spent with my host family out in the ‘campo’ having a picnic and going swimming) I went to meet Zack and Elizabeth at the beach! It was a perfect, very relaxing way to spend my time after being done with finals :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Spanish and Illinois Blog.

http://carolinaenecuador.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 18, 2009. So, as I finish 5 or so different assignments this Friday in Saturday, I will be patiently waiting for the novio to come on Saturday night :) The following Saturday, my parents and my bro arrive! I will be sooo busy in the next 2 weeks, which is exciting, and also a little stressful, but totally worth it. I plan on going to La Mitad del Mundo a couple of times, the Teleferico (which I haven't done yet. yay! Thursday, March 12, 2009. Shelley (i think), Morelia (bebé), y Mayorie.

Carolina en Ecuador: Finals
http://carolinaenecuador.blogspot.com/2009/05/finals.html
Sunday, May 17, 2009. After the Quilotoa weekend, I had a full week of pure insanity, academic-wise. I had a monografía (research paper) for sociology due that Tuesday, then a final quiz on Wednesday in Andean Anthropology (which didn’t turn out to be that bad, partner quiz! But then, at about noon on Friday after I had turned in my paper… I was freeee! I am now ¾ of the way through college…. WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE? I have one year left of school… oh goodness.

Carolina en Ecuador: Carolina en Peruuuuuu!
http://carolinaenecuador.blogspot.com/2009/05/carolina-en-peruuuuuu.html
Tuesday, May 19, 2009. I’m in Peru! We thought the bus would leave at 2pm, which gave us a good few hours to eat lunch and hang around the bus terminal, but it turned out Lonely Planet was wrong, and the bus actually left at 11:30 am. So we had to rush over and we got on the bus just in time. I also took a walk to the coast, which was a little hazy, but pretty looking. I didn’t go down to the beach, but just went to a lookout over some cliffs that looked out on the ocean. Hah Back at the hostel we listen...

Carolina en Ecuador: December 2008
http://carolinaenecuador.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2008. I'm goin' to Ecuador! I have a visa! It only took all morning, mainly because the woman who was looking for my folder (with my passport and all my documents in it) couldn't find it for about 45 minutes. She was looking at the form for my blood test that I got at the hospital, and she was looking for my doctor's name instead of my name! Monday, December 29, 2008. Anyways, I had all of the paperwork I needed,. For an "original" HIV test result from the health clinic. Also, I w...

Carolina en Ecuador: Conclusion...?
http://carolinaenecuador.blogspot.com/2009/07/conclusion.html
Wednesday, July 1, 2009. I realized I sort of left anyone who was reading my blog hanging when I got back to the U.S. (safely! I have been busy busy busy, and I'm loving it. Here's a little summary of what I've been up to since my last post:. After hiking the Inca Trail we arrived at Machu Picchu (! And working at the Study Abroad Office as a Peer Advisor (Yay! Just found out I got the job) as well as the normal college "going to classes" thing. Thanks for reading and I'll be back later! A Chicagoan livi...

Carolina en Ecuador: May 2009
http://carolinaenecuador.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 25, 2009. We just finished 2 and a half days of hardcore hiking, and now we're in Aguas Calientes, the town just outside of Machu Picchu! We're going up to the ruins at 5:30 tomorrow morning :). And had breakfast, then we started our hike! There were a lot of flat parts on dirt road, but also a decent amount of uphill parts that were somewhat tough. We stopped and had a nice lunch with soup and chicken and rice, and all the tea we could ever want (with coca leaves! I just can't wait :). So to...

Carolina en Ecuador: January 2009
http://carolinaenecuador.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 27, 2009. Today I talked to a girl in marketing that's from Miami! Therefore I'm not the only person from the U.S. in that class. She isn't super-white like me, because she's actually originally from Spain. I still have to ask where in Spain :) So I think I'm still considering myself the only gringa in that class but not the only person coming from the U.S. (is that the same thing? I'm not quite sure.). I also get to interact with more children here in Ecuador because Martina and Ivana c...

Tuesday, May 19, 2009. We're staying the night in Puno, next to Lago Titicaca. We met a really cool guy from Israel, Dakel (i think that's how you spell it? On the 24 hour bus ride, and we're all staying in a hotel and going on a short tour to the 'Floating Islands' tomorrow. Our bus company said the strike will be over tomorrow, so we're getting on a bus with them at 4pm to get to Cuzco. But we're making the best of it :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
