Our future Windhorse Cafe site has been fortunate to be the host site of the English book exchange in Cuenca. Ex-pats that are now living in Cuenca come every Thursday morning or once in awhile to meet others, share conversations and to exchange a book they´ve read for another. I´ve just started using the event to share my baked goods. Today I made brownies and although they were less than perfect, they disappeared. Baking anything with chocolate at high altitude is still a challenge for me. Coffee is also shared. Folks are eager for us to get our cafe up and running but also encourage us to continue the book exchange as a weekly event. Used books are not cheap in Cuenca so an opportunity to trade something that one has read is a great opportunity.
