Quito - Post Report Question and Answers

Is it easy to make friends with locals here? Are there any prejudices or any ethnic groups who might feel uncomfortable here?

I have found the locals to be some of the kindest, most welcoming people I've ever met. We have made some friends through social gatherings fairly easily. Seriously, the people here, along with the spectacular nature, are the highlight of this post. - Jul 2023
