Powered by groups.yahoo.com..Get Your Own! | View Slideshow I am April Segura... I grew up in Nebraska, at the age of 18 I ventured to Ecuador, S.A to learn spanish and to be an exchange student. I fell in love with the country and that has shaped my life... Going back to NE was hard for me, but I adapted. I had the opportunity to go back to Ecuador at the age of 21 to study at a Bible College. The times that I have went to Ecaudor have really been important in my life. I am very passionate about the latin people, well and foreigners in general. I got married in Sept. 2005, and now we are expecting our first baby in July! This pregnancy has been amazing for me, and I have been doing everything as natural as possible! I would love to talk to anyone who wants to talk about natural pregnancy/birth!!
