Wow, that is pretty darn cool. Ghana, you guys are more "Travel Pro" than me! Very interesting to hear that. How is security/safety?

Me being back in Ecuador. I'm in the most high crime city in the country, cause that is where my girl is from. So I'm feeling not so safe. People look dangerous here and simply put, with my western looks I should not be walking around after dark as I'm a total target. So after spending the winter in Buddhist Thailand and Hindu Bali...I'm suddenly confronted with the sense to be on guard at all times now. Other parts of Ecuador are much safer than here. But that is my big, "in my face" thing I'm confronting now. But to be back with my girl is very special and that's another story entirely.

If you ever want advice on where a good 91 days in Ecuador would be we can certainly have a chat. Guayaquil I would not recommend. Cuenca, Loja, Quito, Vilcabamba, Banos, Riobamba, Ibarra, Zamora are all better options. Wishing you the very best and have a great day!
