What should I pack when moving to Quito?
We asked people living in Quito to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"More books - not the Kindle I was given --personal effects, small paintings, items you love at home (small and transport friendly) Nothing in 2nd category," said another expat in Quito, Ecuador.
"I wish I had brought digital camera, laptop and more books...I wish I had left home medicines (widely available and cheaper in Ecuador), basics like towel, socks, etc (also easily available), furniture (very beautiful pieces avialable locally)," wrote a member who made the move to Quito, Ecuador.
