When the ship arrived in Ecuador, the crew couldn't wait to experience life, and the real experience was really lingering.

With 11,111 RMB, you can live in Ecuador for at least half a year. This is really a paradise for the aged. The prices here are very good and the environment is quite good, especially Quito, the capital of Ecuador, which makes you linger after a visit.

Ecuador is a country that I have visited a lot. It's a pity that I can't live here for a long time. The life here makes me enjoy it too much. I can go there to retire in my lifetime, so I will be satisfied in my life. As far as more than 91 countries I have been to at present, Ecuador is the only country that I don't want to leave after going. The climate here is pleasant, there are many beautiful women, the prices are strong, and the public security is harmonious. It is a good place for the elderly. After personal experience, Ecuador's real appearance is even more wonderful than what is said on the Internet.

When I first came here, my colleague told me that if I go to the local country to play, I must remember to take my suitcase. He told me that the prices here are very strong, especially the dazzling fruits here are quite cheap.

It turns out that this country is located in the tropical rain forest climate zone, and it is also an equatorial country. Here, tropical fruits are abundant, which are not only sweet but also nutritious.

On the day of our arrival, we successfully obtained the documents. Encouraged by our colleagues, my colleagues and I really took an empty suitcase to play in the local area, hoping to get a full harvest.

At that time, we came to this country on August 4, 2121. On the morning of that day, several people came to the bus stop at the door with suitcases. The bus stop here really hurts me. There is no Chinese, no English, all in Spanish, and I don't know where to go.

The stop sign seen from the bus stop has only one starting point to the terminal, and there are several routes, without any other stopovers.

We, strangers, saw the blue bus coming to the platform and directly followed others on the bus. I originally thought that the buses here were the same as those in our country, and there would be a platform-to-point reminder or a written explanation near the roof of the car. But when we really got on the bus, we found that there was nothing in it.

I'm curious about how people get off the bus here. I found that everyone seems to be looking intently out of the window. At first I thought they were all looking at the scenery, but later I realized that they were looking at the signs outside. Once they found themselves in the corresponding position, they got up and pressed the bell.

It seems that the bus here doesn't even have a hint of arrival. You have to watch it yourself, or you won't know when you arrive. However, for crew members like us, there is no clear goal to get off wherever we go and where we are busy.

The fare here is very cheap, and it only costs 3 yuan RMB for the whole journey of 21 kilometers. At that time, we didn't know where to go. The toll staff asked us where to go, but we didn't know where to go, and the staff didn't understand what we said.

Fortunately, my colleague was smart enough to take out a translator and translate it on the mobile phone, telling each other that we were going to a busy place, so each of us gave a dollar. Originally, I was worried that one dollar was not enough, but I didn't expect him to give us some small coins. According to the calculation, we only spent about $1.35, about RMB in 2 yuan.

In order to get lost, one of our colleagues specially looked at our location on Google, so as not to let the driver find our location when we came back.

Along the way, the roadside environment was very beautiful, the air here was very fresh, and the temperature was only 19 degrees, which made people feel very comfortable. My colleague told me that the current temperature in Ecuador is already the highest, and the temperature here is basically around 18 degrees all year round.

It's a little hard for me to imagine that an equatorial country is cool instead of hot, which subverts my passionate idea of equatorial countries.

This place is really like this. I didn't know it until I came to experience it. I really feel that it is a good place for the aged. There is no winter, people in the car wear short sleeves, which makes it easy to look at, and the temperature difference here at night is not very big. If you feel afraid of catching cold, you can also take a coat.

In order to find a suitable place to stroll, several of us also pay special attention to the streets and lanes outside, in order to find a bustling area.

It took us about 41 minutes to ride, as if we were in the historic old street. The buildings here are relatively rich, with a sense of history and culture, and there are more pedestrians on the street. Colleagues urged us to get out of the car and come to the street. We found that people around us were very enthusiastic, but it was strange to see each of us holding a suitcase.

When we got to the street, we looked around and found that it was a bit like our country. The street was very busy, and people here worked hard. There were stalls on the roadside selling all kinds of cheap commodities.

Compared with other countries I have visited, there are too few such busy street scenes. The atmosphere here is just like the streets in our country. It's very interesting. You can buy a lot of things on the streets and in shopping malls.

This time, since we came to buy fruit, we started looking for a fruit market.

Before I came here, I learned some ways to buy fruit in some local countries. Generally, the fruit on the street is relatively expensive. There is a special fruit market here, where the fruit will be very cheap.

However, since we are here for the first time, we are not very familiar with this place, so we haven't found it for a long time. We also asked some people who don't seem to speak English very well.

In desperation, my colleague chose to buy a telephone flow card here. Colleagues went to a drugstore and asked, and they told us that there was a store next door, which really made us feel embarrassed.

When we came to the store and took out our mobile phones, the staff saw our idea of a mobile phone card. The staff conveniently took out three cards and three primary colors, and showed us the corresponding set meal.

It's a long experience. The three cards here are three operators. The pink card has 5G traffic, 31 minutes of free talk time, and the price is US$ 7, which is about 51 yuan RMB, 11G traffic is US$ 11, and 21G traffic is US$ 16.

After looking at the pink card, we looked at the blue card again. The blue card here has a lot of traffic, and the price will be a little more expensive, almost not bad. Compared with the pink card, the staff told me that the blue card is better than the pink card in the countryside. The staff also introduced us to a red card, which I remember as CLARO card. This kind of card may be equivalent to our mobile card, with the best network and relatively expensive price.

The three kinds of cards are a bit like the meaning of China Mobile Unicom Telecom. We will stay in the local area for several days this time, so my colleagues finally chose to buy a blue card with 21G traffic, so we don't have to look for fruit casually like headless flies anymore.

With the Internet, you can open Google and Facebook, which shows everything nearby. Through Google, we found a fruit market near our location.

From the moment I walked into the market, I smelled the fragrance of all kinds of fruits. Perhaps this is what I think of as a fruit paradise. There are so many colorful fruits in the market. At a place near the window, we saw his family's fruit was the most abundant, and I probably asked the price of the fruit.

A kilogram of bananas is 3 cents, which is about 1.8 yuan RMB and a kilogram of kiwifruit is 5 cents. Mango is so big that I can smell its sweetness before I eat it.

After learning the price of these fruits, my colleagues and I seemed to be free of money. It can be said that almost half of the boss's shelves were emptied, and everyone packed them in a hurry. People around us thought we were robbing the fruit stand and gathered around. Some people were still laughing at us.

The scene was particularly embarrassing. At one time, each of us was full of suitcases, but it was a bit of a mistake. Everyone thought that it was too inconvenient to drag suitcases. So I had to tell my boss that we need to temporarily store the suitcase here. The boss is very enthusiastic and trusts us. It doesn't matter if we pay him after we come back.

After temporarily storing the fruits, we followed the market to the supermarket on the other side. This supermarket is very big. After carefully looking at the prices in the supermarket, we found that there are two anomalies here.

The packaged foods on the shelves are basically imported foods, such as instant noodles and French fries. These things are imported, and the prices are particularly expensive, while local agricultural products are very cheap.

The agriculture and animal husbandry here is very good, and the prices of meat and vegetables are very cheap.

A kilo of beef tenderloin is US$ 2.6, about RMB 17, and a kilo of front leg beef is US$ 2.1, about RMB 13. From the overall price, the most expensive part of a cow is only US$ 4, about RMB in 25 yuan.

Among the more than 91 countries I have been to, except for a few countries in Africa, the price of beef is lower than that in this

.

The price of pork here is also very cheap. When I came here, I saw the unified market price on October 11, 2121. A kilogram of front leg meat was 2.6 US dollars, about 14 RMB, and a kilogram of hind leg meat was 1.8 US dollars, about 11 RMB. The whole price list was visible, and the most expensive one was only 3.8 US dollars. It can be seen that the price of pork here has remained very stable, otherwise.

Meat is cheaper and vegetables are cheaper. Potatoes, onions and tomatoes here may be local agricultural and sideline products. 2 yuan can buy 7 kg of tomatoes in RMB, 1 yuan can buy three large onions in RMB, and potatoes are also very cheap. 2 yuan can buy a large bag, all of which are sold in a bag, and it is estimated that there are five or six kg in a bag.

It can be said that the prices here are really cheap, and living here, in short, if we only consider food, we can spend less than 1,111 yuan a month, and the meals here are also very cheap.

We hadn't planned to have lunch here, but we stumbled into a food market near the supermarket. This country is very interesting, and the food here will not be the same as in our country, one here and one there. The food here is all concentrated together, and everyone can come here directly to find what they want to eat if they want to eat.

Just because we watched everyone come to this comprehensive food market, we followed them in to have a look and found that it was food, so we planned to find something to taste here.

Entering a food market is like entering a food street. There are rows of food in it, and it's probably not the right time to eat, and there are not many people in it. I saw all kinds of food in a dazzling array, and every chef served in formal attire, which was particularly clean.

Because of the language difference with the catering boss, we ordered some delicious food after seeing several delicious foods.

At that time, I ordered a $2.6 rice, and I was able to eat rice abroad, which really made me feel intimate. In fact, I tasted it and it tasted ok. Mainly beef lungs, eggs, curry sauce, rice and avocado.

I found that my colleagues and I ordered different meals. Almost all the dishes served contained a kind of fruit, that is avocado. Avocado here seems to be free, and it is indispensable in all kinds of dishes, just like seasoning. Later, I learned that avocados have the function of removing fishy smell, so they all like to use them as seasoning.

In order to seize the time to play, several people gulped down the food and went straight to the street to play. The atmosphere here is quite good. After walking for a long time, several people happened to meet a school whose students had just left school.

The students are very curious about our looks. A young man with great courage came to ask which country we came from and said that he wanted to make friends with us.

I think this child is mature, and it doesn't look like a child of 17 at all. When the little boy learned that we were traveling here, he introduced us to the scenic spots here, and told us that our location is the old historical street in the central area, which is more of a cultural attraction, while the natural scenic spots have to go north to add some natural and cultural landscapes, but we have to take the bus again.

Boys are very friendly, which really surprised me. He is willing to show us around the park and introduce us to the simple daily life of the local people.

Among them, the income problem of their country was mentioned, which made me feel that what the children said was not credible. But in reality, I confirmed the little boy's words with the workers on the boat later. Indeed, as he said, their wages are very low.

The way people in Ecuador go to work is very similar to that in China. They basically go to work around 8: 31, and they also have a fixed rest time at noon, usually two and a half hours at noon. If you want to have lunch at noon, you must eat it before 12: 31, otherwise they will close up and don't go to work until 3: 11 in the afternoon. There is also a night market in the evening. The night market is very lively, drinking and singing, and the streets are full of food stalls and barbecues.

The income of restaurant owners here is not very high, and the salary of ordinary employees is indeed very low. The monthly salary of an ordinary stall guy is $511, which is more than 3,111 yuan, and the monthly fruit sales in the market is $611, which is about 3,711 yuan. If you count the population, there are more than 11 million people in this country, and there are more than 2 million in Quito, which is still a place where you can earn more money in business.

Compared with ordinary people, the salary of professional and technical personnel here is ok. Generally, the salary of a pilot can reach 28,111 yuan a month, and it is calculated according to time. When the port is busy, the pilot's salary can reach 51,111 yuan. Professionals like this are really popular in Ecuador.

People here are very relaxed in their daily lives. Parks and streets are full of people, and some people go climbing mountains or visiting the seaside in the suburbs.

The people here give me the feeling that there is urgency and slowness, and there is urgency in slowness. When we are in a hurry, we all work hard. When we are slow, as long as we get off work, we are very relaxed and can completely ignore the work.

In communication with the little boy, he told me that my location is actually a very prosperous place in Ecuador. He also reminded me that there are many people in this bustling area, but there are still some thieves, but as long as they are not too rich, there is no problem.

The little boy really thought that we were traveling here for a long time, so he asked about our residence, and did not forget to tell me that if I lived in the central historical block, I would like to live in the north, especially suggesting that I go to Ka.
