Excited to be moving to Ecuador in the end of April. Still have a million things to do beforehand, but having a great time getting ready. Like the many other moves in my lifetime, I'm winging it with no prior visit. Figure that if I like it (lots of internet research makes me think I will) and can work it out, I'll stay. And if not, I'll buy a small motorcycle and travel from country to country every few months. So much to see, so many people to meet.
Haven't looked into some of the basics, like how to get from the airport in Guayaquil to the southern coast...around Montanita/San Pedro area, and then where to stay (on a budget) while I look for longer term accommodations. Any advice on these (or any other wisdom you'd like to impart) would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Brian
