"A trip through Ecuador can be compared to a journey from the Equator to the South Pole."

These words by Baron Friederich von Humboldt, the famed German Explorer and Cartographer whose Geodesic Expedition determined the earth's circumference, perfectly describe the Republic of Ecuador, a small Andean nation located on the Pacific coast of South America.
