After Tena headed back up to Quito, where the plan was to spend a couple of days relaxing and catching up with people before heading back on a happily relaxing journey back to England.
The first part of the plan went fine, stayed with my friends Akiko and Vanessa (Vanessa is Ecuadorian, Akiko I met at the spanish school in Quito and is staying with Vanessa), went shopping, out to eat and generally wound down a bit.
Unfortunately when it came to the journey home, broken planes and cancelled flights gave me what added up to a 29 hour delay. But I did get to spend some lovely quality time in Miami, and finally scraped home early Friday morning.
So, journey over! Quite a busy two months in all. Learned some spanish (and some kichwa!), attempted to improve a communities water system, met lots of indiginous Ecuadorians and new friends, managed to see quite a bit of Ecuador, and squeezed in a little biking, riding and kayaking.
I think I need a holiday now to relax.
If anyone's still there, thank you for reading and hope you enjoyed it.
love,
Hayley
