This is the dish of dishes in Ecuador, a tasteful mixture of plantain puree, shrimp, cilantro, and peanut butter? It sounds odd but trust me it tastes like nothing you've ever had, it's absolutely delicious. Of course you're gonna have to try it with lemon and onions topped with tomato. 10/10

When exploring the world of stew Sacocho is my top recommendation it may seem unappealing to most but it really is a different type of tasty. Personally I think it is an acquired taste but as long as it's served with a side of rice you know it's gonna be good in Ecuador. 9/10

One of my favorite Ecuadorian dishes is Llapingachos, a potato cheese filled pattie served with chorizo and avocadoes. Sometimes paired with an egg and onions with tomatoes. The dish is one to be remembered. 10/10

Forever I have wanted to dive deeper into my Ecuadorian heritage, my journey began with a visit to Quito, the opening to my ancestral roots. Stepping off the airplane, I was immediately encased by the vibrant wonder of Ecuadorian culture. Its spirit is barely palpable in the air. Everywhere I turned, the colors yellow, red, and blue enveloped the scenery, echoing the deep pride, love, and honor the people had for their homeland. Despite the knowledge of the country's hidden underworld, I chose to focus on the surface, immersing myself in the awe-inspiring beauty of the surrounding mountains and lush Amazon forest. With the iconic statue the Virgin de El Panecillo overlooking the city, I felt an overwhelming sense of connection with the people and the city itself. Throughout my stay, the warmth and hospitality of the Ecuadorian people left an unremovable mark on my heart. From the genuine smiles to the hearty welcomes, I was embraced as one of their own. welcomed into a community rich with history and tradition. The food was a symphony of flavors that danced on my palate. Each dish a testament to Ecuador's culinary expertise. As the days unfolded, I found myself swept up in my favorite pastime of Ecuadorian football, joining locals in their passionate celebrations with enthusiasm. Every single moment, every experience, felt like a beloved memory in the making. In the heart of Quito, amidst the bustling streets and the echoes of centuries past, I discovered a piece of myself, a connection to a heritage that runs deep within my veins in my existence. Though my time in Ecuador flew by like nothing ever has, I enjoyed each moment on the journey wishing to never leave, its impact will forever endure, a testament to the enduring spirit of a people and a land steeped in beauty, culture, and tradition.

Ecuador is filled with volcanoes and with volcanoes come lava and with lava come large elaborate caverns, exploring them was amazing. Being able to see how the lava formed such beautiful caves was a wonder.

Hiking In Forest

The Amazon Rainforest kind of throws up onto Ecuador and what beautiful forest it is. There are so many bananas I could've fed a family of 6 for 3 days.

The main tourist attraction of Ecuador is how it is on the equator, there is a lot of gift shops here and bustling performers singing songs and playing the pan flute.
