Ecuador is one of the most fascinating destinations in South America with its array of vibrant cultures, historical colonial architecture, volcanic landscapes, and dense rainforest—all in a nation no bigger than Nevada! But Las Vegas is nowhere to be found; rather breathtaking natural wonders are bountiful. The country’s ethnic diversity extends the country from the Andes to the Amazon. Traditional arts, textiles, and ceramics tell the story of an Ecuadorian culture that dates from around 3,200 B.C. Four distinct regions—the highlands, coastal areas, rainforest, and the famous Galápagos Islands (where Darwin studied and wrote about evolution)—all make Ecuador an exciting country for you to discover while perfecting your Spanish.
You’ll probably attend a single-gender school where you may study up to 13 subjects from a standard curriculum. Ecuadorian society values family and friendship, so your host family will welcome your participation in daily activities. Hanging out with friends and family is also a great way to further perfect your Spanish language skills. You’ll meet other AFS Participants at orientations, and possibly take part in an optional trip to the Galápagos Islands at an additional cost.
