| On the Inca trail in Ecuador |
The second smallest country in South
America but the most diverse one. The locals say that you can be in la Costa,
la Sierra, y el Oriente (Coast, Mountains and Jungle) in the same day.
Distances are small, transport is cheap (1$ for every hour on the bus) and
hitch hiking also pretty easy. And it has absolutely everything, just takes
much shorter to get to it (compared to Peru for example). In just two hour
distance from the jungle to the mountains or from the mountains to the coast, you
really can feel the climate changes and you see completely different
landscapes.
