So struggled through the two flights, layovers, and a six hour bus ride back to JU. That seemed to take the longest. Watched three movies and fell asleep numerous times.

Overall, I had another great adventure. Saw amazing sights, engulfed myself in Ecuadorian culture and practiced my spanish, helped the misfortunate. I am a lover of travel, and will take every opportunity to do so. I had never traveled with a large group like that and it was quite an experience. The chaperones were all great, but I think I will stick to traveling alone from now on. Then I am only representing myself. I would suggest this trip for anyone who is open and excited about different places, people and cultures. It was a wonderful learning experience, and I hope the sheltered Americans got something useful out of the whole thing.

Thank you for allowing me to take part in this opportunity.
