Post new topic

Hi Everyone,

I'm from Ottawa, Canada. I just moved here earlier this month. That was a bold step for me! My travel experience is minimal and I don't speak Spanish. I'm 65, and I would like to meet potential friends to hang out, go on adventures, etc.

If you are similarly situated, send me a message. I look forward to meeting you!

Hi Canada, I am América in Gringolandia. Just a little tram away. Let's celebrate our coming to Ecuador (I came from 4 years in Mexico in late August).

Hi Angel,

Thanks for responding! I'm feeling a little homesick, missing my daughter and wondering what I was thinking!!!! I would love to meet up and celebrate this huge change in our lives! Full disclosure, I'm 65. What about you? Are you in my age range?

I have a tram pass thanks to a friend taking me to the airport to get one. I live on Juan Jaramillo a few steps from Benigno Malo. I haven't figured out where to catch the tram yet!

Would love to meet up and share stories.

By the way, not fully figuring out the tram yet isn't a barrier. Let me know when you would like to meet, and I will take a taxi if I'm not yet tram-efficient! I would love to meet you. You sound as if you have had an interesting life. I'm a retired family law lawyer.

Moving is the task thru Ffid&Dr suMonday. Then maybe lunch at Common grounds on Saturday?
