Disston launches into his Latin-American adventure in Ecuador.

Some of you may know me, but most of you will not.  My name is Sam Disston.  I’m a pretty outgoing guy and I do well in school.  I’d like to think I’m a pretty normal college student, though I don’t drink quite as much as most. I have been known to have fun every once and a while.
