We’re on a flight to…

July 3, 2015

Happy Independence Day Weekend, Americans! And Happy Friday, everyone!

Today we’re off to our second international destination this summer– I can’t believe how quickly our 5 days at home went by. My desire to lieย in bed for a day is only slightly overshadowed by the great excitement I feel for our next stop.

A glimpse of Quito Old Town!

I already mentioned this back when I shared our summer plans: we’re going to Ecuador! Only this time, our focus will be on volunteering with Casa Victoria (more on the organization later!), which I heard about from the lovelyKatie at Hope Engaged. I am so thrilled to be working with kids in Quito for the next 3 weeks, and hopefully getting to see some of this amazing country!

But fear not, this little blog will (hopefully) keep chugging along during our adventures. I haven’t finished sharingย every tidbit about Japan that I want to.

What about you? What will you be up to this weekend?

    I heard on the news this morning that the Pope is in Ecuador too!! I got so excited for you (no idea of your religious beliefs but he has got to be one of the cutest old men on the planet! hehe)

    • Daisy @ Simplicity Relished

      Oh believe me we (and the rest of Ecuador) are excited about the Pope ๐Ÿ˜‰ I don’t know if we’ll get to see him though, he’ll be appearing in Quito (again) tomorrow, and I’m wondering if I should go check out the scene or resist getting trampled!
