Calling all (any?) Guayaquil Gringo/as.....

7 years ago
I am a norteamericano from Seattle, WA, and have been living in Guayaquil with my Ecuadorian wife since last August. In that time, I have only met and become friends with one other expat who lives here full time. Surely there are more? I certainly didn't move halfway around the world just to hang out with other gringos, but after nearly six months of being immersed in the life of my wife, her family and friends, I look with no small amount of envy at Cuenca and the coastal communities, where expats are fairly well organized around a number of interests and activities. If there are any other gringos here who would like to meet up from time to time for coffee or a nosh, discuss possible mutual interests, maybe engage as a group in volunteer work - I would be really pleased to meet you! Lemme know.....

Many thanks - Michael Gamble
