Down on the Farm

I am very close to receiving my Ecuadorian Citizenship.  Looking forward to visiting Machala, El Oro, Ecuador where I will receive my Ecuadorian Citizenship.

On Monday, June 11, 2018, I visited Hacienda Chan Chan in Chiquintad, Azuay, Ecuador with my husband, Randy, our son, Kobe (16), and our friend, Michael Wanner.  The Martin Family have a farm that is really nice.  They also make cheese, milk, bread, butter, Greek Yogurt, etc.

  1. I love all the wonderful photos! And I would love to learn more about the making of the cheese.

  2. Thank you so much! So sorry I took so long to respond. Now I am motivated to continue blogging at least once a week. Hacienda Chan Chan outside of Cuenca is a great place! I hope to get back there if they still offer tours.
