GIANELLA'S EXPERIENCE

Two years ago I had one of my best experiences, let me talk you about it. I traveled to Cotopaxi province 🚌🏔️📷 . I went on a tour with my best friends for two days, we left Ibarra very early, at 3.00 am. The trip lasted five hours until, in the morning we went to Cotopaxi volcano, it was really amazing because the place was so scenic and we enjoyed taking pictures of the landscapes 🌈☀️ that I uploaded them on my Instagram account, we also had a delicious lunch in a typical restaurant, then I bought several handmade souvenirs for all family. It was a really tiring day but a lot of fun.

On the last day I visited the Quilotoa lagoon 🌲🍃 🏞️, it is one of the best places to visit in Ecuador, the lagoon is unique because it has a range of colors in blue and green as result

from the reflection of the sky. There is an interesting lookout with friendly materials with the nature like wood. The walk lasts 30 minutes, it was very tiring but in the end I really enjoyed it. Finally, there was a meeting with the habitants of the place and I got knowledge about their experiences, culture and language I think that the people were so warm and polite. In a few words is a relaxing place 💚😄and ideal to spend great moments with family or friends because you breathe pure air and have very happy and unforgettable experiences

Well, I work bringing American clothes and orders from the USA, so I traveled with my family 👨‍👩‍👦 to New Jersey, in March 2020!  We got there and the pandemic began, so our return flights were canceled several times, it was a hard time and full of uncertainty because we did not have a date to return to Ecuador but it also served a lot of learning, to value my family,  grateful to God for everything that happened, I understood that everything happens for something, I stayed 3 months, which we went through many things such as catching COVID 19, we were asymptomatic, but we are still here, my baby met his first year there and it was an  experience to learn and, incidentally, know a little more about life there 🤩, we were back on June 11.

PRICILA ANGUAYA

Some time ago I went on vacation to Manta, which is on the coast of my country, I went to my graduation together with my brother and we visited the beach called EL MURCIELAGO, it is very beautiful and attracts many tourists since there are restaurants and a center shopping called MALL DEL PACIFICO and I love to go there is very nice.

The last day before returning to Otavalo where I live, we went to the beach with my little cousins ​​and my aunt, so when we had to leave the beach to get ready and go back to the mountain, I was standing on the shore and my brother was swimming with my cousin and he started calling me at first I thought he was just playing when he started yelling at me saying "help me" and with his tearful and scared face, I was too stunned, I was really too scared I don't know how to swim and I didn't go to help him for What worried me even more and my aunt approached me very worried and began to shout for someone to help them and THANK GOD that a man who knew how to swim was there and took them out of there. quickly, and we were in the hospital for another week.

That's why I want to go swimming even more, I prefer to just stay on the shore.

A funny and exciting 😝anecdote that happened to me is two years ago, I was in university leaving classes🙍 and I made a call to my boyfriend to see where he was, then my boyfriend told me, he was in Otavalo and told me that he was sick😷 of health and that's why, I was not, going to come to ibarra, ⛳so, I told him that I would go to see him in otavalo, He told me that he would wait for me but before we met, he picked up a medicine, then he gave me the address where I had to arrive and what I had to say I was nervous😬 and that is why I wrote everything on my cell phone,📱 I arrived at the address about an hour The place was a flower shop🌹🌻🌼 and I still did not realize what was happening, I arrived and read the note I made on my cell phone and the girl who attended me, told me that the order was ready and gave me a giant teddy🧸 bear and I was confused and in shock and when I left the place , my boyfriend was waiting for me outside, finally he was not sick and he gave me a big surprise.💓💕💥😍

MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE-ANTHONY AGUILAR

When I was sixteen, I went on a trip with my family to Tonsupa Beach, and we stayed at Diamond´s Beach Hotel two nights and three morning days, at the third day we wake up very early so we can do a lot of things, like buy some gifts to give them to our friends, go to the pool and the beach, try some typical dishes like ceviche, encocado, etc. At the same day we decided to go for a walk, as we were walking we ran into a small stream so we crossed without any problem, but when we were coming back to the hotel to take our luggage and go back to our homes the small stream has become into a big river, and the stream was to strong, and we weren’t able to swing to the other side because my grandparents are old so we didn’t know what to do, lucky for us a boat was passing and help us to cross the river, and I remember that while we were on the boat crossing the sunset was gorgeous that day and I don’t ever forget about it.

MELANY PITACUAR

Two years ago I had the best experience of my life, I had the opportunity to rescue an animal in captivity, your name was Titi that was how I called it, he was a baby monkey, he had barely 3 months old. One day, a Peruvian lady came to my store and she was selling him,
I know it's bad to buy animals, but I didn't want it to fall into the hands of someone bad. I buy it and take care of it for a month I put into practice everything I learned in my career, the baby monkey was traumatized and he needed a mother, I feed him and heal his physical wounds. After two months took a decision, I do not know if was the most correct, but it was the best for him, I went to the environment ministry and deliver it. They promised to let me know where I would go him, but
they never gave me any answer, later I investigated on my own and I found out that they had taken him to a private lodging center where they have a zoo with rescued animals in Chaltura. That rescue center did not totally convince me but I think it was for the best, I hoped they would introduce him to a specialized rescue center and not a private zoo. It was the best experience of my life to have it but at the same time my biggest regret.

LETICIA ROJAS

MY EXPERIENCE

Hi my name is Lety

The most beautiful experience I have at the end of the year on 2019, because my whole family met at my grandmother's house, we shared many moments funny

I LOVE MY FAMILY

The most fun was the “ginkana” because we got wet, we got dirty, we got tired and there was a lot of adrenaline and the dances that each family presented were also interesting and diverse, for example my family and I danced rock and roll

BRENDA NARVÁEZ

My best experience 😄 was visiting an ecological reserve located in Papallacta, Ecuador , it was the last adventure with all my classmates at college. In this place I enjoyed the great variety of species of plants and animals 🐰🐻🐼🐯🦁🐸🦅🌳🌱🌿🍂🐾, the waterfalls were impressive, had was a lake with great mystery, because the water was of three different colors y the water sponges were fascinating 🌊💥. Then went to the medicinal water swiming pool, it was a very relaxing place, ate fried trucha with potatoes, salad and juice, it was very delicious 🐟🍽🍹. It was an unforgettable experience because I had never felt so connected with nature. 🌳🍃

 

My worst experience was ovarian surgery. I was at home at weekend watching television, and suddenly I felt extremely strong pain in my stomach, for this reason I fainted and woke up in the operating room, my recovery was very complicated and painful. 

KARLA CHARFUELÁN

I want to share a memory when I was in the last grade of my school, every year an internal spelling contest was organized that was directed to all seventh grade parallels, prior to the contest all the teachers prepared us with classes, dictations and other related activities to the subject and at the end said program was carried out in which I had the opportunity to win and I obtained a trophy and a souvenir of an angel because it was a Catholic center, later I had to compete with the different schools in my city where I obtained the second place and all the organizers paid tribute to us with our representatives and teachers and made the formal delivery of awards to each participant. It is something that fills me with nostalgia and joy because I was able to proudly represent my school, apart from being an institutional achievement it was personal.

Something that I also like to remember is when I was part of the qualifying jury of the Science and Technology Fair where each course participated with innovative experiments focused on knowledge of physics and mathematics.

DAVID GUANDINANGO

I have known important friends since I was little, I have always liked to play soccer⚽😎🤝. The best experience I have is having managed to play with them in many soccer soccer championships, but the most important is when we reach the highest level. Everyone said  that in  Football to be specific, my friend Luis was the team's right side midfielder, Pablo was goalkeeper and I myself was a bad left winger, One day I prepared my soccer shoes and I practiced my the best technique, so, It’s like a dream come true that my first opportunity to play for a team is for Selection UE Jacinto Collahuazo, I didn’t have any experience in offensive position💪🙏, for this reason I watched movies of Leo Messi spreading soccer and goals in the fields, so it´s a funny moments for me when I stand with my friends🤪.After we won the championship in 2018, we had a victory parade, and everyone wanted to touch me or take a picture with our champions cup🏅🤩⚽.

 I'm twenty years old and soccer is my favourite sport.Thanks to its universal nature, football unites people of all genders, colour and religion👋👍.

SEBASTIAN RIVERA

It all started on a Saturday morning, my friends Gaston and Cosme talked to me and we decided to do mountain biking, the road was difficult, we went through “the archangel”, then we reached “the Estelita” and that was just the beginning, we climbed 20 km more, we arrived in “Añaspamba”, We could see the entire city of Ibarra, we found a store and bought water and some fruits , we needed energy, a few km further up we could not see the city much less the Yahuarcocha lagoon, we had reached “the Paramo” and it was very cold and we still had  50 km to get there, unfortunately my friend Cosme suffered a fall and couldn’t  continue, at that moment we called his father to come to the rescue, Gaston and I continued with the route and after 8 hours cycling we reached the end, we called our parents               to help us because we could not continue we were very tired

JUAN LEÓN

I have had really good experiences in my life. One of them is when I traveled to United States of America. That country is really different to Ecuador, the people there is not as warm as we are. Althought, they treat me really well, they were trying to make me feel like home. I have emet people for all over the worl that shared their experiences with me. For example, they made me try Korean food andit was good but with a strange look. I am starting a new phase in my life. I am working now at VR and associates as paralegal. It is

really different to university and I am acquiring knowledge about law. I am giving my best
to lear and be helpfull for our clients. It has been a really good experience and I want to keep developing my skills. My friends are really important to me, I have had a lot of experiences with them. They are like a second family to me. We have done some silly and brilliant things. The main thing with them is to enjoy life, have a good time and create memories to tell when we get older.
