My team of 12 Lipscomb students and 2 leaders left for Tabacundo, Ecuador on March 10, 2023. We were traveling to the Hacienda of Hope, which is a home for kids who have been placed there by the Ecuadorian CPS. We woke up early and traveled by car, plane, and bus all day until we arrived at the Hacienda of Hope on that Friday night. The next morning, our hosts took us to the marketplace in Otavalo – one of the biggest open markets in the world. This was really cool to experience, and we were all very grateful that our hosts could take the time out of their day to show us around.
