My host family in Ecuador still sends me email regularly, like once a week. Since she doesn’t understand any english, all her emails were in Spanish, and she told me she does that to make sure I can keep up with that language. And in every other email, she asks about how my teeth are doing (cos I had that accident a week b4 I arrived her place)

Sometimes I get a bit lazy, and I’d just chuck everything into an online translator and simply clicked ‘english to spanish’

Guess what her reply goes ‘I am very happy about the improvement of your Spanish’ in spanish.

I really miss her.

Will I go to Ecuador again in the near future? or even…. in the next few years?

She’s an old lady living alone in the city center of Quito, Capital of Ecuador.

I start to wonder if I’ll ever get to see her again.

Quisiero ir a quito… esta ciudad y las personas, me gustan mucho…
