Emelies Travels

Equador was more expensive than Peru. The busses were cheaper, but the trips were not as long. In Montañita we found cheap hostels, but after that we had to stay at some hotels and the hostels were more expensive. In general we spent about 420 SEK / $56 a day for our 10 days stay. If we compare this to Bolivia where we spent 400 SEK a day, Equador was more expensive. We didn't do many activities in Equador but we partied a lot more. It gets more expensive the more north we go.
