You will all say it is according to our standards but I need some idea of how much it will cost per day to come down and explore Ecuador with the intention to evaluate a possible move. I can determine what the flights are and how much for transportation and even some estimate of food but here I get uncertain and then lodging seems all over the place. We are pretty average; need clean sheets, warm shower and not lumpy bed. If we stay in hostals do we need to bring our own bedrolls? Willing to try all foods keeping within your "safety rules". Please give me some idea of a per day cost of food and lodging. Thanks. Mary
