Packing List

by frygtloes

Bring a backpack, course if you wanna go where thing are happening, you'll have to carry yor stuff a long way. which brings me to, bring nothing really. Sell you fancy clothes at home and by cheap for your need at the spot. The clima varies so much. From cold misty mountains, dry hot deserts, rain forrests, and what about bikini for the beach? I just gave away to the poor and homeless what I no longer needed. A good sleeping bag is essensiel. Further more bring smiles and lots of patience. In the jungle you'll might need malaria crap.It's cheaper in Ecuador and just as good. film rolles are available everywhere, if you need something fancy, stuck up in quito.

During spring months of September- November, bring light clothing. It is humid during the day. The nights were warm. Bring mosquito repellent! You will get eaten up without it. What can I say about the mouse-sized cochroaches... Damn, they were huge. Bring some kind of bug repellent for your luggages. I don't think you want to bring them back home with you.

Limit carry-ons to 2 small pieces, as one carry on was taken and put in with the other luggage. Other luggage fared fine, no problems. Take a rain jacket! Despite the fact that Ecuador is on the equator, much of it is in the mountains, which makes it fairly cool at times. I wore a sweatshirt and shorts alot. Boots or waterproof shoes would have been much better than sandals 80% of the time.

YOU SHOULD NOT BRING A LOT OF BAGS IT WILL BECOME USELESS AND ANNOYING. THE BEST CLOTHES YOU SHOUL BRING IS A RAINCOAT, A PAIR OF SWEATERS, A PAIR OF T SHIRTS, JEANS AND SHORTS.MY COUNTRY IS NOT VERY COLD BUT QUITO IS SOMETIMES A LITTLE BIT COLD. YOU SHOULD BRING A MIXTURE OF CLOTHES. YOU CAN BRING ANY PHOTO EQUIPMENT BUT IF YOU ARE ON THE STREET YOU SHOULD CARRY THEM WITH YOU AND PAY ATTENTION TO THEM, SPECIALLY IF YOU ARE IN THE BIG CITIES.
