I made it home! I actually got home Sunday evening. I missed my connecting flight to Chicago in the Miami airport. (Miami Airport-2, Joy 0). However, there are more flights going from Miami to Chicago than Miami to Ecuador so there was no real threat that I would spend the night in Miami again. Customs in Miami is terrible, you should (because I know I will) avoid flying through that airport if at all possible.
Today is the second morning that I've woken up in my own bed. It's great to be home. It also feels strange...everything is so flat! Sometimes it almost feels like I was never in Ecuador. But last night when I called the house in Lumbisi, Juan Carlos picked up and I could tell he was very excited to hear from me. Genesis said hi too :) Well I still have a couple of things to unpack and a final bunch of pictures to post. I will update here once I have finished uploading pictures.
It's been a good semester, and thank you all for reading! I do not have much lined up for the summer, perhaps traveling a bit (keeping it in the States). On June 14th I will be giving a presentation at the Asian American Cultural Center at UIUC on "Asian Americans Studying Abroad." It should be fun, if you're in the area you should come! Other than that this summer will be dedicated to resting, reading, and writing (senior thesis and other things). I really loved writing posts, so I will most likely start another blog this summer. But until then, muchas gracias amigos!
