Las Peñas by jessekimmerling
Anyone here familiar with the little tourist town of las Peñas? I just got back from a trip up the north coast. My last stop was las Peñas, and it turned out to be an awesome place. It's been discovered by Columbian tourists and folks from the ...
Nice to hear of someone else exploring the North Coast. Good luck neighbor. Been up to Las Penas and it is beautiful. As for a business idea, how about running a tour of the islands off La Tola. We tried to do it twice and both times got shot ... Read More
coming to ecuador in May 2014. by Dallask
Not sure where to look at first. Any suggestions for cool towns in the south/ mountains. Looking to see if what International living says is true or a scam.

Home base in Quito for a week check it out and do day trips to cotacachi and otovalo, both worth the trip. Then head to the coast. A day in Mindo is definitely worth it, maybe two. Esmeraldes is the big city and not recommended, but the coastal ... Read More

Hi all, My name is Stephen and along with my wife and kids are moving to the Ecuadorian coast starting with Manta this September. We will spend the first 6 months or so living in different parts of the coast before deciding where to live long ...
Esmaraldes province is super safe. Never had a problem. Now the city of Esmeraldes I would stay away from. Plenty of places to stay south of Esmeraldes that are nice. Bigger city Atacames/Tonsupa, more laid back smaller towns of Same or Sua. As ... Read More

we are not there yet but better to know from you guys that are there...I heard the max you can withdraw a day from a bank is 200.00 is that true?? We for now will keep our money in a US bank so when we pay the rent I guess we will have to visit the ...
