Hey fellow adventurers! This month we’ll be talking about Ecuador! I’m really excited about this month! This is another country that I’ve visited, and unlike the other countries I’ve visited, I visited Ecuador when I was an adult. So let’s start talking about Ecuador!
Ecuador
Flag of Ecuador
Name: República del Ecuador (Republic of Ecuador)
Nationality: Ecuadorian
Official Language: Spanish
Currency: US Dollars
National Anthem: Salve, Oh Patria
Largest Religion: Roman Catholic
Capital: Quito
President: Lenín Moreno
Government: Unitary State
Ecuador is a country in northwestern South America with the equator running through the country. It’s bordered by the Pacific Ocean, Columbia and Peru. If you go to the equator in Ecuador, the water will fall differently than it will north or south of the equator. And they do demonstrations of draining water from a tub to show tourists how the water drains at different parts of the equator. Here’s a video of it (it’s something you should see if you haven’t):
Ecuador is one of the most biodiverse countries in the world. The most famous part of Ecuador is probably the Galapagos which is a huge supporter of eco-tourism. When I went to Ecuador, I spent most of the time on a cruise ship in the Galapagos. It was a lot of fun! The Galapagos is beautiful!
However, crime is a serious problem in Ecuador. Limited police and judicial resources contribute to low arrest rates and a high crime rate. Theft, especially pickpocketing, is the most common type of crime when it comes to U.S. tourists. That said, violent and sexual crimes are on the rise, even in large tourist areas. When I went to Ecuador four years ago, our tourist guide and the hotel we stayed at, highly advised against stepping foot outside the hotel or walking too far away from the tourist guide when we go outside. I was told that I shouldn’t even walk down the street. I couldn’t step one foot outside the hotel by myself. Something else I had to get used to was paying for using public restrooms, and not being able to flush the toilet paper. I’m pretty sure Mexico, which I also wrote about this year, is the same way.
That’s it for today’s blog. Thank you so much for reading! Until our next adventure!

whole thing without having side-effects , folks could take a signal.

Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with?
I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but
I’m having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something
unique. P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

My partner and I stumbled over here from a different website and thought I may as well check things out.
I like what I see so now i am following you. Look forward to looking
at your web page for a second time.
It’s very straightforward to find out any matter on web as compared to books, as I found this post at this website.
Great blog here! Also your web site loads up very fast!
What web host are you using? Can I get your affiliate link to your host?
I wish my website loaded up as fast as yours lol
Do you have a spam issue on this site; I also am a blogger, and I was
curious about your situation; many of us have created some nice
procedures and we are looking to trade strategies with others, be sure to shoot
me an email if interested.
Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this site.
It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appearance.
I must say you have done a awesome job with this. Additionally, the
blog loads very fast for me on Safari. Outstanding Blog!
I have been browsing online more than three hours
today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made
good content as you did, the web will be much
more useful than ever before.
I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the structure of
your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or 2 pictures.
Maybe you could space it out better?
Awesome article.

Still, the posts are too short for novices.
May you please extend them a little from subsequent time?
Thank you for the post.
The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole my apple ipad and tested to see if
it can survive a 40 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.

is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!
Way cool! Some very valid points! I appreciate you penning this article and also the rest of the website is
also really good.
