At the Aug 15 Rotary Luncheon, Pres. Sandy Lane introduced our new Inbound exchange student from Ecuador, Alejandra (Ale) Carolina Vizcaino-Ruiz, who is being hosted by Rotarian Mary Tempest.  She arrived late Wed night.  She did a presentation for the Club on Sept. 5.
 
Ale’s father is a tourist guide and her Mom works in a travel agency.  Her big sister is 21 years old and studying technology in Ecuador. Nicky and Bruno are her pet dogs. She practices fencing and also dancing.
 
Ecuador is a small country, which includes the Galapagos Islands, and now uses American money instead of their old native currency.  The Galapagos are famous for its old large turtles. 
 
Ale then shared pictures of some of the traditional foods and their national costumes. She lives in Quito, the capital city, with the famous Basilica del Voto Nacional. They also have a volcano, Pichincha, as well as other nearby volcanos, the equatorial line and approximately 1.9 million people. Dec 6 is Independence Day and they have parties and play cards.
