What do I need to know before moving to Quito?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Quito, they said...

"Rent, learn, then leave. Keep in mind I have no business interest here so I am just being honest. You can deposit money into your bank acct & if want to know your balance after your deposit they charge you a fee, service in Ecuador is terrible. Ask for a roll of quarters, & be refused! No reason, just be told no," remarked another expat who made the move to Quito, Ecuador.

"Come visit first, stay in a travelers hostel if you want to meet people, doesn't matter your age...see where you want to live, then check the local paper to find rental listings..," explained one expat living in Quito, Ecuador.
