I’m so excited for you all and your move to Ecuador! My friend Penny who is in NYC now spent 2 terms in Panama and loved it…hope you have an equally amazing experience in Ecuador!
Thanks Jen! We are very excited. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect placement. Hope you are well! Mari & Paul
Thanks for posting pics of the Treehouse!

Good luck in Ecuador.

You’re very welcome! I love to share great design! Take care, Mari
Hola, Mari y Paul espero les vaya muy bien su su sitio en la provincia de Santa Elena, en verdad fue un placer tenerlos en casa porque fueron parte de la familia; se extrañará los juegos como 500, 1000, Pandemia, Banana Grams, etc; en fin le deseamos lo mejor de parte de la familia Escobar Salazar (Gloria, Juan y Christian). Esperamos poder volver a verlos y compartir con ustedes.
Abrazos, Christian.
Gracias Christian! Extrañamos a toda la familia Escobar Salazar – un fuerte abrazo a tu mama especialmente. Estamos bien en nuestro sitio – pintando la casa y trabajando con el grupo de jóvenes. Gracias por todo has hecho por nosotros. Ojala puedes ganar el proximo juego de 500 o 1,000 contra Juan! Hasta pronto, Mari
I’m a volunteer in Eastern Europe… I love your blog and all the details of how things are done in Ecuador! Especially all your community art projects- are you YD or CD volunteers?
Thanks for the note! It is so great to hear from fellow PCVs. We are actually technically Natural Resources Conservation Volunteers – me in Environmental Ed and Paul in Business Advising. My background is mainly in Youth & Families and creative entrepreneurship so that´s a lot of what I´m doing here. Thanks for reading and best of luck! Take care, Mari
Hi Mari and Paul! I think what you are doing in Ecuador is pretty incredible so I nominated you for a Versatile Blogger Award. Everyone should read about you opening a pizza parlor. If you are interested in the award, you can learn more at http://versatilebloggeraward.wordpress.com/. Have a great weekend!
Wow! This is SO nice! Thank you – we really appreciate it! We have not had internet for a while so we are just catching up with stuff now. I love that you can pre-publish things so that when we have a blackout in our town we can still be communicating to the outside but it´s also strange! Anyway, thanks for this. We truly appreciate it, Mari
