thank you!
Hi, just want to say that this blog does not sound like some kind of ultra morbid Oxfam avert. Instead I'm happy to read about your experiences and how you cope with them. I don't want to imagine some of the many places on earth where no NGO are present... There are so many people suffering from whatever you never want to know. And it's always encouraging to know that there are good souls out, using their power to contribute to something better than just their own bank account. @Kit: as a child we were praced sitting on the handlebar and riding the bycicle backwards... look, without hands! Still hurts when I think about that one ;-) Hope you both are well, enjoy each day and meet again soon ;-)

Pheeeeeew
Boy oh boy, Hulse you do find yourself in some pretty intense situations. I just read all of your blog entries (very entertaining, great, if harrowing pictures). I had assumed that you had not made any and had simply fallen 'off the grid'. I am happy to see that you are on top of this blogging thing. I know how annoyed you were with yourself when you didn't get round to blogging South America, but being annoyed with yourself is defiantly your favorite hobby. . . I am proud of you and what you are doing. I am glad everything worked out with your NGO and your translator and everything (what did I say!?) but I knew it would. Things tend to work out for pretty girls. I never found my dictaphone, but I bought an adapter that turns your ipod into a perfect dicataphone that you can keep when you get back if you like. Its pretty useful, especially if you like recording things. Everything I am doing here would sound so awfully pedestrian compared to what you are doing so I am not even going to bore you with it. Just know that I have reverted to type and that my motivational posters and daily plans didn't amount to much. I still have not been given ethical approval (apparently they are CONVINCED i am trying to spam people even though I have never once mentioned doing this). As I still cannot begin my research (even though I have) without ethical approval I decided to throw a massive shitfit at my tutor and she seems to realise now that unless i get approved pretty soon there will be no students left to survey. Anyway I will let you know more about what is going on in the near future. I know its nice to get mail abroad. Send me a postcard. By the way, you forgot to register to postal vote! Your democracy despairs. Its all kicking off here by the way, all Gordon Browns ministers are leaving the cabinet and his premiership is looking increasingly like a clowns car, both because of the number of people leaving it so rapidly and because of the way in which it is falling apart. At least GB is keeping me entertained. Anyway, all my love and kick some ass Kit

Small world!
Just came across your blog (I did a search for Canoa...my favorite stop in Ecuador) and read about your 'lion' incident in Bahia. I saw the lions too! Looked at your date and sure enough...we were there at the same time! It was an advert for a circus and I think they were so mellow because it was over +30C. Those poor things had zero shade and were dying in the heat...likely dehydrated. :( Definitely tainted my view of this so called "Eco-city".
