📣 Traveler notes

Ecuador is a South American country on the Equator featuring diverse landscapes, including the Andes mountains with active volcanoes like Cotopaxi and UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as the Galapagos Islands, Quito, and Cuenca.

Greet people with 'buenos días', 'buenas tardes', or 'buenas noches' accompanied by a handshake or cheek kiss. Use 'usted' for elders or strangers and 'tú' for peers. Avoid using downward-facing palms to indicate height; instead, hold your hand to the side. To signal someone to come closer, gesture with a downward swipe and palm facing down.
