Get ready for an incredible journey through children's literature that will inspire, educate, and warm your heart! In this episode of Reading with Your Kids, host Jed Doherty sits down with three remarkable authors who are changing the landscape of children's books one page at a time. First up is Wunneanatsu Lamb Cason, who shares the magical story behind "Grandmother Moon," a beautiful picture book that bridges generations and cultural understanding. Inspired by her own grandmother's teachings, Wunneanatsu creates a touching narrative that celebrates indigenous storytelling and the powerful bond between grandparents and grandchildren. Next, we dive into historical fiction with Darlene Campos and her middle-grade novel "The Center of the Earth." This eye-opening book explores the little-known story of Jewish refugees who found safety in Ecuador during the Holocaust. Campos brings history to life through the eyes of young characters, proving that children's literature can be both educational and deeply moving. Rounding out the episode is Jessica Marie, the creative mind behind the "Mess Monster" series. With humor and heart, Bell tackles relatable childhood experiences, showing kids that it's okay to be a little messy and imperfect. What makes this episode truly special is the authors' shared commitment to representation, empathy, and storytelling. They demonstrate how children's books can be powerful tools for understanding different cultures, experiences, and perspectives. Whether it's exploring indigenous traditions, uncovering hidden historical narratives, or simply making kids laugh, these authors prove that children's literature is about so much more than just entertainment. Parents, educators, and book lovers will walk away feeling inspired and excited about the incredible stories being told for young readers today. It's a reminder that every book is a potential window into another world, another experience, another way of understanding.

Wakati mabilioni ya watu wakiendelea kuvuta hewa chafu inayosababisha zaidi ya vifo vya mapema milioni 4.5 kila mwaka, wataalamu wa hali ya hewa wa Umoja wa Mataifa leo Ijumaa (5 Septemba) wamebainisha madhara ya chembe ndogo ndogo za moshi kutoka katika moto wa nyika ambazo husafiri umbali mrefu duniani kote. Philip Mwihava na maelezo zaidi.(Taarifa ya Mwihava)“Ubora wa hewa hauheshimu mipaka,” anasema Lorenzo Labrador, Afisa wa Kisayansi wa Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Hali ya Hewa Duniani (WMO). Anaendelea kueleza kwamba, “moshi na uchafuzi unaotokana na moto wa nyika katika msimu huu wa kihistoria katika Rasi ya Iberia tayari umepatikana Ulaya Magharibi, kwa hiyo athari zake hazibaki tu kwenye Rasi ya Iberia, bali zinaweza kusambaa kote barani Ulaya.”Akiwasilisha taarifa ya WMO kuhusu Hewa Safi na Tabianchi, ambayo inakusanya data kutoka vyanzo mbalimbali vya kimataifa, leo jijini Geneva, Uswisi Bwana Labrador ametangaza mwendelezo wa mwenendo wa kuzorota kwa ubora wa hewa duniani.Ameonyesha ramani ya dunia ya mwaka 2024 iliyoonesha alama za chembechembe ndogo zinazojulikana kama “PM 2.5” kutokana na moto wa nyika, zikionekana kwa alama nyekundu kwenye maeneo ya Chile, Brazil na Ecuador, pamoja na Canada, Afrika ya Kati na Siberia. Takwimu hizo zinathibitisha mwenendo wa kuendelea kwa kuzorota kwa ubora wa hewa duniani kama ilivyoonekana katika miaka iliyopita.Kwa upande wa habari njema, mwanasayansi huyo wa WMO amesisitiza kupungua kwa uzalishaji wa hewa chafuzi katika baadhi ya maeneo ya dunia.(Sauti ya Labrador) - sauti ya kiume“Tunaona mwenendo wa kuzorota kwa ubora wa hewa hasa kwa kuhusiana na PM 2.5, na pia tunaona kupungua kwa uzalishaji wa hewa chafuzi katika maeneo fulani ya dunia, hasa mashariki mwa China na Ulaya, mwaka baada ya mwaka.”Mfano mzuri uliotolewa katika taarifa ya leo mashariki mwa China, katika miji kama Shanghai, ambako kumepigwa hatua katika kuboresha ubora wa hewa kwa kufungua bustani zaidi na kupanda miti mingi. Na ingawa bado kuna msongamano mkubwa wa magari, mengi sasa ni ya umeme.Hata hivyo WMO inasema licha ya mafanikio hayo, miji michache tu duniani ina viwango vya ubora wa hewa chini ya vile vinavyopendekezwa na Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Afya Duniani (WHO). Hii inamaanisha kuwa, licha ya maboresho ya karibuni, ubora wa hewa bado ni changamoto kubwa kwa afya ya umma.Umoja wa Mataifa unaongoza juhudi za kupambana na uchafuzi wa hewa majumbani ambao ni mojawapo ya vitisho vikubwa zaidi kwa afya ya umma duniani na hasa ni hatari kwa watoto.

In this episode of Mining Stock Education, Bill Powers and Brian Leni host their monthly discussion on junior mining investing. The conversation covers a wide range of topics relevant to both new and experienced investors in the mining sector. Bill and Brian respond to a listener's question about the value of learning from investment successes versus failures, sharing personal stories and lessons learned from both. The discussion explores the challenges of knowing when to take profits, the risks of selling too early, and strategies for managing winners and losers in a portfolio. Advice for newcomers to junior mining is offered, including the importance of only investing what you can afford to lose, avoiding margin, and understanding your own financial situation. The hosts emphasize the need for skepticism regarding rumors, anonymous online accounts, and promotional activity in the sector. They discuss the importance of doing your own research and being aware of potential conflicts of interest. Bill and Brian share their perspectives on where we are in the gold cycle, the impact of macroeconomic factors, and how to manage expectations during bull and bear markets. Brian outlines his approach to position sizing, balancing risk and conviction, and tailoring allocations based on the type of mining company (explorer, developer, producer). The show addresses the issue of management accountability in junior mining, referencing recent lawsuits and the challenges of assessing management competence and intent. The conversation also touches on recent developments in Ecuador and how government actions can impact mining companies and investor decisions. Notable Quotes: “You really have to look at your failures and learn from them and adjust. That doesn't mean you can't learn from your successes too.” “Don't put more money in, even in a bull market, than you can afford to lose.” “Skepticism is key—do your own due diligence, especially with anonymous accounts and online promotions.” “Position sizing is one of the biggest things that has led to my success personally.” 00:00 Intro 00:21 Learning from success 01:09 Brian's early investing lessons and the importance of taking profits 03:21 Taking profits too soon—can it hurt your portfolio? 05:08 Advice for new investors: risk management and avoiding margin 07:08 Skepticism, rumors, and due diligence in junior mining 13:14 Gold cycles, macro trends, and managing expectations 21:14 Position sizing strategies and risk allocation 31:00 Management accountability: Ascot Resources case and lawsuits 39:46 Spotting delusional or incompetent management 46:44 Ecuador mining climate and government risk 49:55 Final thoughts Brian's website: https://www.juniorstockreview.com/ Bill's Twitter: https://x.com/MiningStockEdu Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Mining Stock Education offers informational content based on available data but it does not constitute investment, tax, or legal advice.

La Brujería es un grupo de creencias, conocimientos prácticos y actividades atribuidos a ciertas personas que están supuestamente dotadas de ciertas habilidades mágicas. La creencia en la brujería es común en numerosas culturas desde la más remota antigüedad, y las interpretaciones del fenómeno varían significativamente de una cultura a otra. Para el cristianismo, la brujería se ha relacionado frecuentemente con la creencia de un espíritu malévolo, especialmente durante la Edad Moderna.A pesar de que en cierta medida lo que se sabe sobre la brujería está basado en la especulación, varios estudios han señalado que la llamada religión de la magia actualmente tiene miles de adeptos alrededor del mundo, incluida América Latina.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Este aterrador relato nos lo mandó Mirian B.

Renowned natural history writer Robert Macfarlane traveled to Ecuador, India and Quebec, pondering the question of whether rivers are living beings -- the premise behind much of the movement to legally recognize the rights of nature. He found that the answer to that question is more complicated and wondrous -- and more life-altering and world-changing -- than he could have imagined.

In Part I, Ross Halperin and I laid a foundation for the work of ASJ in Honduras under the leadership of Kurt Ver Beek and others. In this episode, I am joined by Kurt himself to discuss his exchange of letters between Nicholas Wolterstorff in a wonderful book, Call for Justice: From Practice to Theory and Back, which looks at the meaning of justice and the work ASJ. Kurt is joined by Emily Cole, who has focused on Latin America most of her career and remains a passionate advocate for the well-being and development of that region. I speak to them about a number of things, focusing on the structural details of working in the area, including the difference between social justice and community development, the importance of long-term missionary work, the significance of elections, working with the government, and more. Kurt and his wife, Jo Ann Van Engen, are currently the directors of Calvin University's Justice Studies Semester, which studies the concept of justice in relation to history, economics, politics, sociology, and development in Honduras. Both are founding members of the Association for a More Just Society (ASJ) in Honduras. ASJ seeks to do justice in Honduras and inspire others around the world to seek justice in their own contexts.

Dolores GangotenaFounderQuasar ExpeditionsMy husband and myself founded Quasar Expeditions in 1986. Up to then, my life had been filled with several experiences in the Galapagos Islands. My first trip was in 1969 when there was no airport and navigations had to be done from Guayaquil. My first experience visiting Galapagos, still quite young, in the company of a biology teacher and 5 friends truly changed my life. It is since we founded the company that my professional life saw a big turn and suddenly I had to become part of the hospitality department, the human resources department, biology and naturalist guides department, the marketing and sales department which if all different gave me a view of what the business was all about from scratch.  It is probably this experience that have helped us create our safari cruises that create an incredible memory in all of our guests.summaryIn this episode, Dolores Gangotena, founder of Quasar Expeditions, shares her journey from her first trip to the Galapagos at 17 to establishing a successful eco-tourism company. She discusses the importance of sustainable tourism, the challenges of operating in the Galapagos, and the need for regulations to protect the islands. Dolores emphasizes the value of local experiences and the role of naturalists in enhancing the travel experience. She also addresses common misconceptions about safety in Latin America and encourages travelers to explore the beauty of the region.takeawaysDolores's first trip to the Galapagos sparked her passion for eco-tourism.Quasar Expeditions focuses on small group experiences in the Galapagos.The company has expanded to offer services in continental Ecuador and beyond.Sustainable tourism is crucial for preserving the Galapagos.Local operations enhance the travel experience and support the community.Travel agencies are increasingly working directly with Quasar Expeditions.The importance of targeting the English-speaking market for tourism.Group dynamics can impact the travel experience in the Galapagos.Tourism has evolved, affecting wildlife interactions in the islands.Regulations are necessary to manage the growing number of visitors.

El secretario de Estado estadounidense Marc Rubio visita Ecuador para hablar de seguridad, migración y narcotráfico en la región. Según la ONG InSight Crime, Ecuador fue el país más peligroso de América Latina en 2024, con 39 homicidios por cada 100.000 habitantes. Ante una expansión de la actividad criminal y del narcotráfico, las organizaciones que trabajan con víctimas de la violencia señalan las dificultades de su actividad y critican un "deterioro institucional".  Con más de 5.200 homicidios desde el inicio de este año 2025, Ecuador vive una importante ola de violencia a pesar de la política de "mano dura" declarada por el presidente Daniel Noboa. Verónica Supliguicha es directora de proyectos en la Fundación Alas de Colibrí, una entidad ecuatoriana que trabaja en la asistencia humanitaria con víctimas del crimen organizado. "Alas de Colibrí lleva 14 años atendiendo a víctimas de trata. Tenemos una casa de acogida. En los dos o tres últimos años, los niveles de violencia con los que las víctimas son tratadas son muchísimo más graves que hace tiempo. Ahora encuentras que son procesos extremadamente cruentos y violentos de sometimiento. Eso indiscutiblemente genera unos niveles de afectación mucho más graves en su salud física y psíquica", explica. "En este momento tenemos niñas y adolescentes que están saliendo todos los días del sistema educativo por miedo, por amenazas, porque no quieren ser reclutadas, no quieren ser víctimas de trata y las familias no tienen las posibilidades de cambiarlas a otro lugar", continúa Verónica Supliguicha. En los últimos años, el país se ha posicionado como parte de una de las rutas más importantes para el narcotráfico. Los Choneros -que fueron durante años la principal banda criminal de Ecuador- se consideran una estructura debilitada tras la extradición a Estados Unidos de su líder, alias Fito. Sin embargo, otras organizaciones que trafican con armas, droga y minerales ganan terreno. Esto, sumado a un deterioro de la institucionalidad, explica el nivel de violencia actual, según Supliguicha: "Hay una falta de capacidad de respuesta y una falta de una estructura institucional que dé respuestas que sean mucho más sostenidas a largo plazo. Las redes criminales han permeado toda la región. Ya no son redes criminales que se dediquen a un solo delito y ni están en un solo país o un solo sector. Este tipo de políticas que se plantean como de mano dura son discursos vanos que no han solucionado nada". El gobierno de Noboa declaró en 2024 la existencia de un "conflicto armado interno" y ha mantenido un pulso con la Corte Constitucional de Ecuador, que suspendió algunas leyes promovidas por el presidente, acusadas de vulnerar los derechos humanos. Noboa prevé celebrar en diciembre un referéndum que permita que los jueces de la Corte Constitucional puedan ser sujetos de juicio político. Un paso más del mandatario para tratar de tirar adelante su agenda legislativa de mano dura contra el crimen organizado.

Joel Saxo is in the great north of America of land we call Wisconsin. And Phil Totaro is in lovely California, and as we've been talking off air before the show started. There's a lot of news this week. We are not going to get to all of it in this episode. There is no chance of that. But I wanted to start off first with what's happening off the coast of Connecticut with Revolution Wind and Ted and the stoppage there, and also the more recent news about US Wind, which is a project off the coast of, of [00:01:00]Maryland and uh, the administration. A couple of days ago decided that, uh, they're gonna pull the permits from US Wind. And, and that has created quite a, a firestorm within the states because if you think about revolution wind, that was gonna power like 350,000 homes up in Connecticut and Rhode Island and US Wind, which was nearly as far down the line, was also gonna power a great number of homes off the coast of Maryland. Now both of those have stopped. Uh, and as I pointed out in a recent Substack article and on and also on LinkedIn, and I think everybody has seen this, that pay attention to what the governors had done. 'cause this is the same thing that happened to Empire Wind and Ecuador a couple of months ago. Where, uh, empire Wind got shut down. The governor of New York went to the administration and said, Hey, what's, what gives they negotiated an out, which is that New York was gonna allow more gas capacity and gas lines [00:02:00] into the state. That same thing is, I think is happening in Connecticut and the governor of Connecticut is, uh, has vowed to work with the administration to. Get revolution back up and running. In fact, there was a interview today, we're recording on a Wednesday where he was on television basically saying that, that there's, uh, the art of the deal still exists. You can't cancel a deal after the art of the deal has been signed. Which that's a good point. Right. Uh. Connecticut is trying to negotiate this, and they have been talking to the state of New York, Maryland has taken a different approach and Maryland's governors, Westmore is saying, quote, canceling a project set to bring in $1 billion in investment, create thousands of good paying jobs in manufacturing and generate more Maryland made electrical supply is utterly shortsighted. All right, so Maryland's taking a different approach and is, is sort of punching back hard instead of going to the negotiation table. [00:03:00] Is there more to this than what we can see outwardly? Or is there a lot more, uh, to it in terms of what the administration is trying to do? Or is this all about expanding the role of gas in Democrat LED states? I  Joel Saxum: think you're on it there, Alan.

Lo escucho inmediatamente al bajar del carro, ese cucucú resonante que he estado buscando por todas partes de Montana este verano. ¡Un cuclillo pico negro! Mis manos están temblando y mi corazón está latiendo fuerte. Me pongo un solo audífono, apunto la parábola y empiezo a grabar. El cuclillo sigue cantando.El cuclillo pico negro (Coccyzus erythropthalmus) es un ave de muchos misterios. En este podcast profundizo en la biología y el asombro de esta especie, desde el margen occidental de su distribución reproductiva en Montana, EU hasta la distribución no reproductiva aún menos conocida en Colombia y Ecuador. Muchas gracias a Anna Kurtin (Universidad de Montana) y a la doctora Camila Gómez (SELVA, selva.org.co) por su participación en esta historia, y a sus equipos de investigación por todas sus contribuciones a nuestro conocimiento de esta especie. Agradezco a Harriet Marble por contarme de un posible reporte de un cuclillo pico negro cerca de las Montañas Highwood, que finalmente me permitió observar a uno. Gracias también a Tim Spahr por su permiso para incluir sus grabaciones del canto y la llamada de vuelo del cuclillo en el podcast, y a Ian van Coller, Bo Crees y Peter Dudley por dejarme incluir sus fotos en la versión escrita.Además del canto y la llamada de vuelo del cuclillo grabados por Tim Spahr, el podcast también incluye muchas de mis propias grabaciones desde Montana, EU: cuclillo pico negro (Coccyzus erythropthalmus), picogordo tigrillo (Pheucticus melanocephalus), búho cornudo (Bubo virginianus), chipe grande (Icteria virens), calandria castaña (Icterus spurius), saltapared común norteño (Troglodytes aedon), vireo gorjeador del este (Vireo gilvus), calandria de Baltimore (Icterus galbula), papamoscas del oeste (Contopus sordidulus), chotacabras zumbón (Chordeiles minor), cernícalo americano (Falco sparverius) y cuicachoche castaño (Toxostoma rufum).

I hear it as soon as I step out of the car, that resonant, knocking cucucu that I've been listening for all across Montana this summer. Black-billed cuckoo! My hands are shaking and my heart is thumping. I slip one headphone on, aim the parabola, and press record. The cuckoo keeps singing.The black-billed cuckoo is a bird of many mysteries. In this podcast I delve into the biology and wonder of this bird, from the western edge of its breeding range in Montana, USA to the even more mysterious wintering distribution in Colombia and Ecuador. Many thanks to Anna Kurtin (University of Montana) and Dr. Camila Gómez (SELVA, selva.org.co) for their participation in this story, and to their research teams for all of their contributions to our understanding of cuckoos. Thanks to Harriet Marble for telling me about a possible black-billed cuckoo report near the Highwood Mountains, which finally allowed me to observe one! Finally, thanks to Tim Spahr for his permission to include his black-billed cuckoo song and flight call recordings in the podcast, and to Ian van Coller, Bo Crees, and Peter Dudley for letting me include their photos in the written version.Besides Tim Spahr's black-billed cuckoo song and calls, this podcast also includes many of my own sound recordings from Montana: black-billed cuckoo (Coccyzus erythropthalmus), black-headed grosbeak (Pheucticus melanocephalus), great horned owl (Bubo virginianus), yellow-breasted chat (Icteria virens), orchard oriole (Icterus spurius), northern house wren (Troglodytes aedon), eastern warbling-vireo (Vireo gilvus), Baltimore oriole (Icterus galbula), western wood-pewee (Contopus sordidulus), common nighthawk (Chordeiles minor), American kestrel (Falco sparverius), and brown thrasher (Toxostoma rufum). Also an eastern screech-owl (Megascops asio) from Nebraska and a Middle American screech-owl (M. guatemalae) from Oaxaca, Mexico.As always, I depend on the support of my listeners to continue doing this work.

Send us a textSolomon, perhaps history's wealthiest man with an estimated $2 trillion in today's currency, offers us profound insight into the meaninglessness of pursuing wealth as an end in itself. His words in Ecclesiastes cut straight to our hearts: "Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income."Wrestling with our purpose and meaning often leads us to uncomfortable places. The pastor opens by sharing his own struggle with contentment despite having enough. This universal human condition—wanting more than we have—directly connects to Solomon's ancient wisdom. Like John D. Rockefeller who, when asked how much money was enough, replied "just a little bit more," we find ourselves trapped in cycles of accumulation that never satisfy.Modern psychology confirms what Scripture declared thousands of years ago: wealth only significantly increases happiness when it lifts people from poverty to middle class. Beyond that threshold, additional money brings diminishing returns to our wellbeing. This scientific observation validates Solomon's perspective that pursuing wealth for its own sake is "chasing after wind."What makes this message particularly powerful is that it doesn't condemn having possessions. Instead, it reframes our relationship with them. "Everything you have belongs to God," the pastor reminds us, challenging the notion of ownership itself. When we recognize ourselves as stewards rather than owners, we're freed to both enjoy what we have and use it for God's purposes.The story of missionary Jim Elliott, who gave his life sharing the gospel in Ecuador, captures this principle perfectly: "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose." This profound statement reminds us that our ultimate pursuit should be the eternal, not the temporary.Ready to reexamine your relationship with wealth and possessions? This episode offers both challenge and freedom—challenging our cultural obsession with accumulation while freeing us to enjoy what we have as gifts from God. Subscribe now to continue exploring how ancient wisdom speaks directly to our modern condition, offering perspective that transforms how we live today.

What do pasta, polar bears, and the Pope have in common? They all show up in this episode about climate change. Peterson Toscano refuses to preach doom or guilt—instead, you'll hear Jewish wisdom on acting fast in a crisis, Christian takes on food justice, and a Bronx guy who's had it with polar bears. Also: coffee is under threat, so now you're paying attention. And we end on a diesel-fumed bus ride through Quito, Ecuador, where the future smells like electricity.

In this episode of At the Coalface, I sit down with Natalia, an entrepreneur and seeker whose story weaves together Russia, Ecuador, Canada, and beyond.Born to a Russian mother and Ecuadorian father, Natalia grew up in Quito feeling like both an insider and an outsider. Her father, a doctor in the jungle, would return with stories from indigenous peoples that sparked her lifelong fascination with health, spirituality, and tradition. She went on to explore African-influenced practices like Candomblé in Brazil, connect with northern indigenous communities in Canada, and reflect on the Russian superstitions and esotericism that shaped her upbringing.We talk about the renaissance of indigenous wisdom and psychedelics. For Natalia, true healing comes through inner work, supported by the role of community, something all spiritual traditions share, and something she finds sorely lacking in Western culture, where people often suffer in isolation.Our conversation also explores her journey as an entrepreneur navigating political risk, the tension between intuition and control, and the resilience she forged through personal loss and reinvention.Recorded on 13 August 2025.Connect with Natalia on LinkedIn at linkedin.com/in/natalianavarre/.Instagram: @at.the.coalfaceAnd don't forget to subscribe to At the Coalface for new episodes every two weeks.Help us produce more episodes by becoming a supporter.

In this episode of Canadian Investing in the US, Glen Sutherland speaks with Torrin Brauch, an American expat who relocated to Ecuador in search of a better food supply and overall quality of life. Torrin shares his journey from growing organic food on a farm in Florida to building a 17-unit eco-lodge in the Andes Mountains of Ecuador. He discusses his motivations for leaving the U.S., the process of buying his first property within days of arriving, and how Ecuador's low property taxes, favorable climate, and structured property registry system made it a compelling place to settle and invest. Torrin now operates a hospitality and real estate development business under the banner Live the Life in Ecuador, offering seller-financed lots, sustainable housing, and relocation support for foreigners. He walks listeners through the logistics of buying property, visa options, and the legal framework for ownership and financing in Ecuador. Torrin also highlights the lifestyle benefits, including clean air, fresh food from community food forests, and a welcoming local culture. Interested visitors can learn more or arrange a stay through his website, livethelifeinecuador.com.

We recently talked about Tamara's trip to the Galapagos but today we are talking more about the logistics about traveling to Ecuador and some travel tips. Tamara spent 17 nights in Ecuador, including 5 nights in the Galapagos and found it a warm and welcoming country with beautiful and diverse landscapes. Amazing Ecuador helped Tamara organize her trip. Episode Highlights Most flights from the U.S. come into Quito or Guayaquil It is only 3.5 hours from Miami There are many regions including the Cloud Forest, Rainforest, volcanoes and mountains, National Parks, Galapagos, and more Tamara spent: 5 nights in the Galapagos, 1 night at Hacienda La Danesa, 2 nights in Cuenca, 1 night in Cotopaxi National Park, 3 nights in Quito, 2 nights in the Cloud Forest at the Mashpi Lodge, 2 nights at Hacienda Zuleta It helps to work with someone to figure out your priorities and build an itinerary around your interests Generally you want to spend at least two to three nights in each place Cuenca is a UNESCO heritage city with plenty of outdoor adventure nearby too Cotopaxi is at a higher elevation, making hikes challenging If you just have a week, fly in and out of Guayaquil and do the Galapagos and Hacienda La Danesa Safety - you need to be very careful after dark in Quito and other cities and beware of pickpockets. Don't walk around after dark, especially alone Ecuador uses the U.S. dollar as their official currency but most places also take credit cards but you will want small bills for tipping and the handicraft markets Many of the hotels are all-inclusive with meals and some activities Ecuador is a huge exporter of roses and through some regions you will see many roadside stands of 25-50 roses for less than $5 Tamara recommends getting a driver because the roads are not very well marked, some aren't in the best condition, Google Maps isn't reliable, and drivers are very aggressive There are a range of four star boutique hotels and luxury hotels Ecuadorian food is very fresh and utilizes year-round produce of veggies and fruit Most meals start with a soup and then have a salad or vegetables. Fish and ceviche is quite popular. Quinoa is a popular grain You shouldn't drink the tap water in Ecuador but the produce at good restaurants and hotels are washed in filtered water Guinea pig is also popular in Ecuador as it is in Peru Chocolate and coffee are also grown in Ecuador and very popular Ecuador is the most densely populated country in South America If you have liked Costa Rica or Belize, you will probably also like Ecuador Related Episodes: Galapagos cruise Mother-daughter trip to Peru Winelands of Chile Chile's Atacama Desert
