Somewhere in the west coast of Ecuador lies Montanita. Also known as surfers and parties paradise of the country. Not really ‘on the way’ to other destinations, but do take a few hour diversion and decide yourself if it’s worth the interest. With a few days to spare I’ve decided to give it a go, since I haven’t seen a beach for a month or so now, what’s to lose? (more…)
After many hours of but rubbing on numerous buses, we’ve finally crossed 8th country border and reached Quito.
From what looked like a 4hour journey from frontera to Quito, turned out to be 6 hours on a curvy roads around Andes mountains. Should also mention, that bus broke twice and we needed to change into a different one, which was already full with people. Exhausted, hungry and angry at God knows who, we arrived to north terminal just to find that it doesn’t have an ATM and is in the middle of nowhere. Walked with backpacks a bit and problem was sorted- ATM found, we can take the bus and get out of here!
Public transport in Quito is cheap, bus ride cost $0.25.
