The host family has been really great and made us feel like part of their family. I'm really glad we decided to stay with a family over a hostel because you really do get to experience how they live and it's nice to have a home base. By Ecuadorian standards the family we are staying with is well off and once we entered their house we realized it was quite similar to ours. They have the entire first floor of the apartment building which includes a living room, dinning room, family room, kitchen, four bedrooms and two bathrooms.
The mother Nancy is separated, which is actually quite uncommon in Ecuador, but her ex husband comes around quite a bit. They have two daughters Kayla (20) and Mar Jos (14) who live here. They also have a housekeeper, Elsa who lives at the house as well. So it's a house full of girls but if you know my brother... you'll know he doesn't mind being the only male.
