I was so much older then, I am younger than that now. Ecuador
I have now been back from Ecuador a little over two months. I have already taken a vacation (Taking The Canadian train across Canada) and am getting ready for many more. My settling in to Greenville has gone better than I expected in some ways, harder than expected in others. When people ask me did I love Quito and Ecuador.. I can be a bit flummoxed as to where to start. So much of it I loved, so much of it was sooo hard, and some if I just endured. It was a jumble in so many many ways. But for me, the important story is that somewhere along the line my reboot button got set. After being back for about 6 weeks I spent 10 days walking and riding on a train with no wifi . My head cleared and some ideas of how I would like to spend the next years came together. In short, I am good! For the first time in a VERY long time, I am curious about my future and looking forward to it. For me - the pre- and post Ecuador me is best expressed in one of my all time favorite song lyrics
