    Hi
    While I’m on here I’d like ask ” where is everybody?” I’m planning to move to Quito in April. I hope to apply for 9.1 Visa, store extra suitcase and hit the road. (Bus that is.). I want to visit Susan & Dan in Coticochi, return to Quito and bus to Manta. Then back to Quito and bus down south, stopping wherever my (‘gut -Dan * ) says so, until Quayaguil or Cuenca or Loja shows up.
    I would love to meet one or two Canadians in each place to ‘shoot the breeze’.
    I plan to also register this request on Expat.com (Am I allowed to Advertise?)

    Hi Again
    In looking over my prior comments ,I forgot to mention that I simply used my Servus Credit Union debit card in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico.

    This is not a reply to Larry S. but rather a comment to those prior concerns over ATM fees in Ecuador by fellow Canadians.
    I’ve just been on the phone with a Servus Credit Union foreign advisor here in Alberta. As we experienced in 5.5 months in Mexico last winter, she assured me that withdrawals of $ 500 Cdn.(max.) would cost $3.00 per withdrawal. Does $6.00 to $9.00 per month for ATM fees
    create a problem for people (Cdns) immigrating to a new country?? That’s less than a bottle of decent red wine in Mexico.
