You know you're in Ecuador when...

Ok, so I am loving Quito! It's beautiful here, the people are wonderful, and the sites are amazing! There are a few things that I have noticed in the past week that could only happen here! So, I wanted to start a list so I will always remember the distinct things that set Ecuador apart from los Estados Unidos:

1. You know you're in Ecuador when...the taxi drivers drive in REVERSE for 250 feet in order to come to a space in the median where he could do a u-turn to reverse his direction! Ummm, scary!

2. You know you're in Ecuador when...you see signs with Santa saying, "Jo, Jo, Jo!" I am sorry, but this will always be funny to me. When I receive text messages from friends here, they type, "ja, ja, ja!" It cracks me up!!!


3. You know you're in Ecuador when...red lights are optional!
