Dear friends, I will be working with a NGO in Quito, Ecuador from January until the end of April 2011. The NGO is called CENIT (www.cenitecuador.org) devoted to help working children (especially working girls) and their families overcome grinding poverty and improve their quality of lives through education, job training and many other programs. Here my first impressions!

y que viva la chiva de mi pueblo!
talking about celebrations, there is a very nice tradition in Ecuador: la chiva. La chiva is a kind of bus with wood benches and music (even DJ!) inside where you can dance and drink canelazo (a typical hot drink of Ecuador) and celebrate whatever: if you are just married, you hire a chiva, if you are just divorced, you hire a chiva, if it's your birthday, you hire a chiva...GREAT!!!
Why were we in a chiva? Well it's related to a wedding (not mine ;) )
Here some fotos of that night!
