Today marks three months since the house was started. Every day we fall more in love with the house. There are new elements that we didn’t expect – barrel ceilings in the hallways … WOW hard to see in the pictures but when you come for a visit … you can see for yourself.
So many things to be thankful for – our new life here in Ecuador is wonderful!!
- opening is the laundry room, pantry is right beside
- great room looking at the kitchen looking to the breakfast room
- indoor patio
- Dave’s office
- great room looking at the niche in the hallway towards the guest wing
- from the middle of the house (at the street)
- they screen all the dirt
- outside the house – straw stash
- from the street
- indoor patio
- master bedroom – no hallway in this shot
- from the great room – this niche disappeared but it came back
- looking into Dave’s office from the outside window – check out the Niches 🙂

Awesome! That is so different from what we are accustomed to here. Congratulations on a great new experience with something that is actually very old in design.
Mario – its so wonderful you are right!! Can not wait until its finished and you two come for a visit!!
Dear Patrice and David,
What an adventure you are having. The house will be a joy – you’ll make it a haven. Do you have a name for the house yet?
Paul

It is really beginning to shape up? Since we saw the land before yiu begin it is easier to visualize.
Keep sending photos with the progress.
