Reflections and adventures as a Rostro de Cristo volunteer. Sunday, May 13, 2012. WowHow to I begin to write a life update? Happy Mother´s Day to all of the wonderful mothers, especially my own :) I love you, Mom! The kids sure loved it. In my free time, I did some private English lessons for a couple neighbors to help them keep up their skills before starting high school. It´s so easy to forget a language when you don´t use it for three months! And of course I did lots of visiting! Oh and HOLY WEEK!

Reflections and adventures as a Rostro de Cristo volunteer. Sunday, July 31, 2011. The 5 Senses of Silent Retreating. I just returned from my first silent retreat experience :) After such a hectic, jam-packed week of Orientation, it was a much needed rest. I spent my time reading, drawing, journaling, napping, and sitting outside in the beautiful sunshine (don't worry Mom, I stayed in the SHADE :) ) I wrote down some of my observations to share:. The whistle, chirp, chortle of birds. Crisp, clean air.

Ecuador-able :): CARNAVAL!
http://mandiinecuador.blogspot.com/2012/02/carnaval.html
Reflections and adventures as a Rostro de Cristo volunteer. Saturday, February 25, 2012. Last week was CARNAVAL! In Ecuador, the people celebrate the four days leading up to Lent/ Ash Wednesday. Lots of families head to the beach to play or to the mountains to visit relatives. Monday and Tuesday were days off work. Tons of the stores on our street were closed. What do people do on these party days? Have water fights and attack each other with paint! Happy Lent to you all! View my complete profile. Other ...

Reflections and adventures as a Rostro de Cristo volunteer. Wednesday, November 2, 2011. Exam Week at San Felipe. This week I am enjoying a week of VACATION! We just finished 2nd trimester exams. I was incredibly surprised to learn that in Ecuador, even elementary school kids take exams at the end of every grading period. An ENTIRE WEEK of tests! The oldest kids, who are only 8 years old, had 15 different subjects to study for. How stressful! Creepy Crawly Hatching Things. I've spent many hours combing t...

Reflections and adventures as a Rostro de Cristo volunteer. Wednesday, August 31, 2011. My community mates are ROCKSTARS! This past weekend, Hogar de Cristo (a big foundation here in Ecuador that works with community organizing, health, housing, education, etc), put on a concert to raise awareness and fight child labor. A big Ecuadorian reggaeton singer, Au-D, was the headliner. Kind of a big deal! Mateo played the drums, and Belén sang "Zombie" by the Cranberries. They were AWESOME! I don´t even te...

Reflections and adventures as a Rostro de Cristo volunteer. Saturday, May 26, 2012. Mount Sinai will miss Team Watcho! St Joe´s University visited Mount Sinaí! What a fantastic group of individuals. I have no doubt they will do great things and touch many lives with their big hearts. They definitely inspired me. Some memorable moments from the week:. Experiencing pure joy during playtime at San Felipe, Refuerzo, and Bastión. Cheering for the woman killing chickens on the side of the road. Don´t forg...
