Jose: The size of Japan.
Todd: OK, what is the landscape like of the country?
Jose: Ecuador is a country where you can experience, they say, all seasons in one day. You have so many microclimates because you have the Andes ranges, you have the coast and then you have two ranges, mountains, it's got actually, it's called the avenue 1 volcanoes 2. It's got key mountains. It's very beautiful. You have these subtropical valleys and then you have, you go to the amazon basin 3. You have the jungle. So you have the jungle from the coast, the jungle also going to the Amazon, and you have this beautiful area in the Andes, so it's very, very nice.
Todd: Oh, I want to go!

You can actually swim with the sea lions and they are chomping 5 next to you, very beautiful. But I can not separate 6 nature and from the people, so that is my problem.
