DO YOU LIVE IN ECUADOR? READ THIS BOOK

ONE READER WROTE: This is an outstanding book, crammed with information about Ecuador that you will not find elsewhere. Nick Crowder has focused on issues other writers and bloggers simply ignore but which are vital to anyone considering moving to this South American country. Since I already live in Ecuador I doubted I’d find the book of much value but I was very mistaken.
