Arriving at sister Leonor´s was fantastic! She and her Ecuadoran family have enveloped me into their lives and assisted me with needs and interests. We have shared many meals together, including one I cooked when the family cook could not get in because of rains. The shrimp fettuccine that was so well received several marriage proposals were made.

We have eaten many plantains fixed boiled, fried and as a paste for cheese and meat wraps, cooked with sugar and spices...all very good.
