Do you enjoy eating the cuy and hornado?

A friend of mine spent some time in Quito and then two years in Asuncion, Paraguay while growing up. His father was stationed at the US embassies in those countries by LBJ. He enjoyed his time there, especially being chauffeured around in limousines. lol

Are you fluent in Spanish?
I love Ecuadorian food. I have not ridden in a limo since I got here, and stay in the "low rent" districts and eat and mingle with the poor.


The US embassy was kicked out of Ecuador because we used them as staging areas for S. American CIA missions in violation of the agreements we signed to get permission to place the bases there.
