I never would have puzzled out the pronounciation. It sounds musical–something I can dance to with my cats.
And thanks, Mom is better today.

Two of the suitcases actually contained kitchenware and bedding, linens, etc. We are shipping a twenty foot container once we’ve established residency. There’s a window of time after that that one can bring in a container, duty free. However, we sold nearly all of our furniture. The container will bring mostly books and art–and the makings of my studio. Oh, and additional kitchenware, as Sara LOVES to cook.

Yes, that was a big move! You know how it feels; I’d forgotten. Sometimes–mostly–our guts are right! Amen, my friend! Hope you’ve gotten some rest!

In fact, having lived in Vietnam and Haiti, Sara and I have both been amazed at how incredibly clean it is here. The city government has folks out cleaning the streets 7 days a week.

Yes, Cuena is easy to pronouce, but only after it’s explained–Kwenka. However, that “e” is the middle is more like a long a–as in ate.

Hope your mom is feeling better today!

I’m so glad you included pictures of you and Sara before during and after arriving.

Your new home looks so bright and modern. Its exactly the kind of home I’d like to live in – a nice cool easy to clean tile floor and sliding wooden doors and minimal furniture.

Are those 10 suitcases all you moved with? No furniture or linen or kitchen shit?

To answer your question about crazy moves: We emigrated from Africa to a cold northern country which never seen before, and we never regretted it. Sometimes “gut” feelings are all one needs.

First Ecuador pix! Everything looks so clean and pretty. How do you pronounce the name of your city. I can’t quite hear it.

Are you finished permanently or just for the summer? I’m delighted to hear from you–just sorry we didn’t have a chance to meet when we lived so relatively near one another. Now you’ll have to visit Ecuador! Hope your academic year went well. More soon!

Yes, I’m back–trying to be back, at least. Still a lot of settling to do, and we need to find a long=term place to live. But I’m making every effort to dip back into the blogosphere. Hope you’re doing well, my friend! Hope you’ll visit us in Ecuador one of these days!
