Ecuador, Ecuador.

We are now in Ecuador, back again in Quito, and it feels the same as it did when we left last year. Getting here went smoothly- much better than last year, except for the fact that Taylor got a nasty cold from an inconsiderate person on one of our plane rides.

So now we are waiting (semi-patiently) for him to get better so we can go to our new home, a five hour trip from here. It´s raining like crazy, and I´m in a slightly-sleezy, super-trendy internet cafe, full of young expats who boastfully speak Spanish fluently, all the while looking condescendingly at the tourists seated at the next booth over, as if to say- Yeah, I am so much cooler and better travelled than you are, if you haven´t notived by my awesome language skills. One thing we have noticed in our travels in that those foreigners who have been in a country a long time get a wierd sort of superiority complex that they love to lord over all the newly arrived foreigners. It´s a protective measure against feelings of fear and a slight disconnection with the society you´ve chosen to live in.

So on the whole, we are so excited to be back here- we get to go meet our new bosses and coworkers in a couple of days and get settled into our new life! Yea!

(By the way, if this post makes no sense it´s because the music in this internet place is so bad that it has paralyzed the thinking part of my brain.)
