Awesome host family in quito.

Ok. Already I'm a hopeless loser blogger person - this being my second blog of the day. But, how awesome is this!? It's the description of my host family in Quito.

Family Members: Mercedes (late 70s), Victor (late 70s), Francia and Juan Carlos (30's) live behind house

This is a wonderful family that has been hosting WT and PC vols for 30 years! Despite their age, they are still pretty active. They make vols. feel like special guests. Both have a great sense of humor and will probably tease you about falling in love with an Ecuadorian. They are warm people and offer good meals. Mercedes is a former soap opera star! You will have lots of independence and privacy. The location of the house is pretty centrally located and only about 20 minutes by bus to the orientation site. Their daughter, Francia, lives very close by and will be over often, with her husband, Juan Carlos.

Yeah. That's right. I'm living with a 70 year old soap opera star. Be jealous!
