Alausí, Ingapirca, and Cuenca, Oh My!

Riobamba!

Again, running out of creative titles here, haha. And we’re continuing right where we left off. I was leaving Baños and on my way to Riobamba with my study abroad program.

Baños! And Not the Kind You Might Be Thinking…

I ran out of creative ways to say hello to the city I visited. I think what I did works though haha.

My Ecuador Journals: Summing Up My Time in Ecuador

I’m back! And oh boy does it feel good to be home.

Out of Online Classes!

As of yesterday, my microeconomics class and my technical writing class are COMPLETE! Woohoo! Online classes are DONE! I still have my physics class to finish at my local community college, but I feels nice to know that my load just got a lot lighter. Eleven credits this summer may have been to big of… Continue reading Out of Online Classes!

A Trip to the Capitol

This past Friday, my sister and I had the day off from school so our dad drove us all down to Denver to tour the Capitol. At first we walked around on our own and then decided to take a tour that lasted about an hour. We got to see the Hall of Presidents, Brown’s… Continue reading A Trip to the Capitol
