We are a small family, dedicated to the cultivation of beautiful flowers called carnations. We live 100 km from the airport of Quito in a town called Patután in the province of Cotopaxi. We have the privilege of living in the middle of the Andes mountain range with a beautiful view to most volcanoes and snowcapped mountains of Ecuador such as El Chimborazao, Tungurahua, Altares, Cotopaxi and the Ilinizas. The town where we live is small, surrounded by stunning landscapes. It is a perfect place for hiking both volcanos and mountains, as well as for mountain biking. We also have a small farm with animals such as pigs and chickens. Environment is really important to us and we are very keen on learning about different cultures from all over the world.
