Coming to a new country is scary…I get it. I came to Ecuador a little over four years ago and I knew very little about life here. I bet you may have a bit of trepidation too, but no worries, read through and hopefully things will become clearer for you.
I came to Ecuador because I had a classmate back in elementary school that was an international student from Ecuador. She would tell me about her country and what she loved about it. To me, it sounded like paradise. I ended up remembering all her stories, had Ecuador on my “bucket list,” and finally bit the bullet and booked a trip for my 40th birthday. I was adamant that one day I would go there. I needed to figure out for myself why my friend Gabriela loved it there so much, so off I went. Only one minor problem…where do I stay? How do I get around? What province do I want to stay in? I needed to do some homework for sure.
