I thought Ecuador was dangerous till I saw this
Ecuador is currently safer than Mexico. The crime rate is somewhat higher in Mexico, and is especially bad in known tourist hotspots, such as Tijuana. ... Mexico has safe resort towns that have less crime than Ecuadorian cities, but these resorts also make it more difficult to enjoy an authentic cultural exchange.
Also, you can drive from new york to Ecuador and it would take 90 hours
And from California and take 20 hours
Cars are VERY expensive in Ecuador. One that costs $10,000 in the United States can cost four or five times that amount here. You will be astounded at how high used car prices are here AND there is little room to negotiate.
As is true everywhere, your lifestyle will determine your budget. A frugal single person can get by in Cuenca on less than $1,000 per month. ... Water (Cuenca's tap water is drinkable) and natural gas each normally cost less than $10 per month. Electric for a two-bed apartment can be as low as $20 per month.
