Last weekend I went to a really fantastic party. It was my cousin’s wedding. I enjoyed a lot. The ceremony was at La Basilica Church at 6:00 pm. Then we went to the reception at Acropolis Reception Hall. I met some friends and relatives. The music was really good. I danced with Carlos, Jorge, Xavier, Marcelo and Luis. They are my good friends. My best cousin Anita was always with me. We took lots of pictures. The party finished very late and I was exhaust.

Your country



I am from Ecuador. It is a small but beautiful country. Ecuador has four natural regions: The Amazon Region, the Coastal Region, the Highlands and the Galápagos Islands. The people from Ecuador are very friendly. In Ecuador there are some ethnic groups living in different places. Let’s see:


 They are Amazon Indigenous boys. They belong to the Achuar Etnich Group. They live in the Province of Pastaza. They speak Achuar and Spanish. Achuar people are farmers, fishermen, and hunters. They grow vegetables and fruit. They also fish in the rivers and hunt small animals to survive. They don't pollute the Earth. They love NATURE.





These couple belongs to the Saraguros Ethnic Group. They live in the province of Loja in a small town called Saraguro. They wear black and white clothes. Their beautiful hats and their clothes are made of "paño".  They also wear alpargatas, a kind of sandals. Saraguros are farmers and weavers. They grow cereals and vegetables. They also make rugs, bags, scarves, ponchos, and other handicrafts to sell the tourists who visit them. They speak Quichua and Spanish. They are very hardworking. They are good Ecuadorian people. They love their country like you and I.
