Expats living in Ecuador interested in expat health insurance should take a minute to get a quote from our trusted expat health insurance partner, CIGNA.
Most people here are mestizo. They are very accepting of any race but do not inter-marry with blacks.
There aren't many jobs here I wonder what the future is for the students.
This is a tourist town that only has tourists occasionally. Most people do menial jobs.
Be ready for a laid-back lifestyle!
