Adventures in Ecuador

Before traveling to Quito, Ecuador I was hesitant to go alone since I knew Noone there. Once I arrived, I felt the support within ACLAS and my host family. They greeted me with a hug and a kiss on the cheek and I felt so much love since the first day I arrived. Being in the Healthcare field, I decided to take this trip to learn Medical Spanish. I also was able to volunteer some afternoons with the kids at the casa hogar. Ecuador is so beautiful and has lots of places to explore like Baños, La mitad del mundo, Parque Itchimbia, among many other places. The people were so sweet and welcoming! I made great friends on this trip. I would recommend this program. It's definitely worth it :)
