We had the wonderful opportunity to volunteer with children in Baños, Ecuador for a two month period.  The biggest gift we received from our volunteering experience was forming wonderful relationships with amazing children. Below is a photo essay featuring the beautiful smiles faces of the children that have touched our lives.

Many costumes, many smiles.

Costumed children.. Think Miro is enjoying this?

Before signing the wall, it’s important to read it first.
