Safe Travel & Retirement

14 years ago

I would like to visit Ecuador in June/July to check out a couple of possible retirement locations. My plan is to fly into Quito then immediately fly to Cuenca. Spend a couple of days checking out Cuenca then take a bus to Loja where I will spend several days. Following my Loja stay I will go to Vilacabamba for several days.

At this time, I am most interested in Loja and Vilacabamba as retirement locations. Is it safe for a female to make this trip alone? I have international travel experience, however never alone. I plan to take buses druing the day time and stay in mid-range hotels.

Are there any expat groups or people in Loja and Vilacabamba? If so, how would I reach out to them?

In addition, is there a "safe" tropical location either near the beach or inland that offers a good retirement option?

Thank you for your insights.
