We also must send a little message to Grannie in England. The photos say it all! Even Toby gets himself into the first photo.

Welcome!

This will be an intermittent blog, probably not very professionally executed, where we can post pictures and a few words about ourselves and our life in Ecuador. We hope that you enjoy the blog and come back every now and again to catch up with what we have been doing.

Links you might be interested to follow up

ARAJUNO JUNGLE LODGE, Tom Larson's home near Tena. A great place to visit and a base for field trips with students. Charo is the best cook in all of Amazonia!
ARTE 'N 3 - Academia de Formación Artística
BELLA VISTA. Richard Parson's lodge and conservation project in the cloud forest, on the Ecoruta del Quinde, between Quito and Mindo. Don't miss Bella Vista!
COTOPAXI CARA SUR - a high altitude refugio on the south side of the mountain. You can drive up there - just! Well worth a visit.
ECORUTA DEL QUINDE - the web pages devoted to this route from Quito to Mindo, through some of the most superb cloud forest and wild areas.
EL ESTABLO DE TOMAS and LA CASA DE LA ABUELA, Tena, Napo. El Establo is a few km out of Tena, beside a river. Pretty basic but great, great for children. La Casa de la Abuela is as good a hotel as any in Tena. Both offer all the usual Napo activities..
FLOARE ORCHIDS - the business behind the orchid collection around our house in Lumbisi.
HAKUNA MATATA: Our jungle hideaway near Tena. This is a very special place, owned by our good Belgian friends, Rudy and Marcellina.
HOSTERIA SAN JOSE PUEMBO - conferencing facilities and wonderfully peaceful accommodation near Quito. Great for children!
HOTEL COCOSOLO - wonderful beaches; wonderful food; so very friendly; easily accessible 20 km north from Pedernales; unsophisticated; and good value.
IL PEPERONCINI: Lovely Italian/Ecuadorian family with all sorts of projects on their hacienda in northern Manabí. Close to the coast. Accommodation as well. Great Italian food and coffee!
LA GALLETA DE BRUSELAS - wonderful waffles - and more - in Tumbaco.
LORD GUAU! Gabriel Carrións dog and pet care service in Tumbaco and Cumbaya. How to pamper your pets! And also get them cared for during your holidays.
PACHAMAMA - Robbie's school (with Maia previously) Montessori as it should be done!
PUNTA PRIETA on the northern Manabí coast - a truly tranquil hideaway. Long, empty beaches.
SAMVARA ECO-LODGE - Swiss run (Benno Dubach). Cabins on the coast, where we spend Christmas. Brilliant place!
STEVE TOBER'S manic blog pages. Steve, his Colombian wife Maria who is a mean distance runner, and their children Ramon and Carla humble the rest of us with their adventures.
THE BRITISH SCHOOL QUITO web pages
These are the web pages devoted to JUAN MANUEL CARRIÓN and his art work and conservation projects around Tamboquinde, on the Ecoruta between Quito and Mindo.
TUMBACO LIFE - Have a look at the blog of our good friends PIPPA, ROB and their children BILLY and ASHA. Plenty of photos of Robbie and Maia. Even John.
V.I.B. Gabriel Carrión is a cycling enthusiast, and organises tours and paseos, even races. He no longer has a shop but he can come up with the bike supplies we need.
