 Hello Everyone.
I just wanted to say a final thank you to all of you who supported me during my Peace Corps service with encouragement, prayers, mail, etc. I could not have gotten through my service without you! It was extremely difficult for me to leave Ecuador, mainly because the  people in my small town became a surrogate family for me. I plan on returning to Nabon, Azuay in a few years to hopefully give out some much deserved college scholarships to some of the youth I worked with and to visit my Ecuadorian friends.
These past two years I have grown so much as a person, and I am so proud of the experience I had. It was rough at some points, when I didn't feel that I had enough in me to continue. I always ended up finding a reason not to leave, whether through the help and encouragement of fellow volunteers, or the sudden smiles on the faces of some of the kids whom I fell in love with in Ecuador. It was emotional for me to leave my home of two years, but I am so excited for the next adventure in my life. With that, I leave you all. Please enjoy some last snap shots of my final days in Ecuador. Now that I am back in the USA I would love to share my experience with you! God Bless!
