ABOUT QUITO, ECUADOR

Shelter of the first Cultural Heritage of Humanity, Quito, which by far is one of the most popular destinations for tourists or those who decide to go on a student exchange program, is surprising.

Located exactly in half the world, the capital of Ecuador is very safe, and its nightlife is like those of São Paulo and Buenos Aires. A historical narrow street exclusive for pedestrians enchants to all. Charming, it has bars, coffee shops and art galleries in a more colonial style.

Quito is also a region that is very concerned with the needy population. The city has several social actions that encourage the community to lead a healthier life. Most of the time, care for the health, cleanliness and well-being of these people is done by volunteers.
