It has been a whole week since I last left a blog so there is, as per usual, a huge amount to catch up on. I´ll start with Saturday night which involved watching a really bad play in colloquial Latin American spanish about women. It was the national day of women, apparently, and so I was forced to endure what I can only describe as a nightmare:bad acting, bad storyline and uncomfortable theatre seats.

I can´t really remember where I last left off but it was somewhere on Tuesday I think. On Tuesday afternoon I went to Cultural Centre again, essentially to jsut run around with some kids for a couple of hours. I spent alot of time with a kid called Brayan, who is an absolute fanatic of power rangers.

I basically teach everything, from maths to English and it is actually pretty rewarding when they suddenly understand somet...

On my final night in Quito I went to the local supermarket and bought 3 steaks for 50p and a abg of rice and some really tiny bananas, they have so many weird fruits here, most of which i cant pronounce. Anyway I rustled up some steaks and then went to bed only to get up at 5:30 the next day to catch an early morning bus to Macas whch is also pro...
