Quito is a city that spans anywhere between 30 and 80km (depending on who you ask) from north to south. Just when I had finally obtained some sense of direction in the busy, traffic-choked streets of La Mariscal (better known to the Quiteños as Gringolandia), I moved to a completely different side of town. San Pedro Claver, a few blocks west of the airport, will be home sweet home until the end of March. I have new street names and bus routes to memorize and a mission to replace my beloved panadería. My new family welcomed me today with open arms and a delicious bowl of ceviche - I think I'm going to like it here.
Happy Superbowl Sunday to all.
