CITTI Project Ecuador Tour 2006

Well, I would say we are off to a wild start! Tungurahua, an active volcano, a mile from our hotel, has blown her top just as we depart on our journey to Ecuador. We could take this as a sign, I suppose. An indication of wild adventures to come? A symbol of the fire that drives our team and our mission! Our new icon reminding us the power of the universe and our synchrodestiny with the work in front of us!

The CITTI Project has been growing into a strong and powerful network, and now, we are challenged to live up to our reputation. If the lineup of people on this trip were any indication, I would say we have it covered. It’s the Dream Team of Assistive Technology! Between us, we have over 100 years of experience in a very young field. The passion of this group is unmatched, except for perhaps Vulcan, god of fire. Obviously, he is aware of our imminent arrival.

For me personally, this trip is a dream realized. I am humbled to be invited into communities who have entrusted us to explore with them the possibilities. Regardless of the knowledge and years of experience the team brings, we are students of another culture. It is our task to listen, absorb, watch, and learn. From that perspective, our suggestions and solutions will be graciously guided.

To Pele, Vulcan, and Hephaistos, watch out, here we come!
