This series will be less about Ecuador, and more about traveling in the time of covid-19. Ecuador is definitely feeling the effects of Coronavirus. All the hospitals beds in Quito are full, and the number of cases are going up. We've been keeping ourselves safe, locked up in our home for the past 4 months. But Ecuador's economy is also suffering horribly. Oil prices have crashed. China has stopped importing shrimp from Ecuador. The tourism industry has essentially been put on pause... until now. We've decided to travel Ecuador in the time of Coronavirus. We love travel, it's who we are, so not doing it for the entire summer seems almost impossible. It was a difficult decision, and it may seem like a greedy act, but there are people all over the country that rely on the tourism industry. When we booked our first guesthouse, the reply we got from the owners melted our hearts. They said we were the first booking they had in months and they were very excited for us to come.

We will be taking all precautions, wearing masks at all times, sanitizing our hands frequently, and we will avoid all crowds. Ecuador has some of the strictest Covid-19 regulations in the world. The numbers are only going up because people are not following the rules. If we are careful and we abide by them, I think we can safely help the tourism industry, and really connect with the culture.

Our first destination is Ambato, the capital of Tungurahua province. It's a city surrounded by some of South America's biggest mountains.
