How Fast time can fly

Hello to everyone,

So I swear I am going to post something very soon, I have many things to chat about and fill you all in on. I have been lacking internet so trying to keep up the blog has not been the easiest. I loving life right now in Tumbaco and will elaborate in the next few days.

Packing List

So after a long line of past volunteer blog searching and Peace Corps Wiki I bring you my official Peace Corps Packing list, yea I think I took too much stuff as well. The thing that makes it so hard to pack for Ecuador is the variety of climates, especially when I still don't know where I will be placed in Ecuador. The temperatures can vary greatly, but not only that I'm not backpacking Ecuador so I need to have clothes that are semi professional to fit the part of a respected community member. 2 back packs and one duffel bag later......
