Is the dialect on Margarita Island different than in the rest of Venezuela? I heard they talk differently and it's not a true Venezuelan accent. What about Puerto La Cruz; that's an area with normal Venezuelan dialect and they use tú, not vos, right?

If so...
1) How do you get there from Quito?
2) What are some must see/or must do activities in Banos?
3) Any hotel recommendations?

Thanks!

I wish I could show the WORLD, the picture I took of this little girl, 5 then, whose mother was murderred by a gang in Honduras, AND SHE LIVES IN A HUT with a DIRT FLOOR AND NOW PLUMBING!! Her grandmother is raising her now, on about $2/day income. Should I just SHUT UP being too helpless myself, to do anything about it? I can't get the girl off my mind.

I'm thinking of going to Ecuador but I only know a bit of Spanish (mostly, from what I remember from High School). Will I have a difficult time getting by or do many people in Ecuador (especially Quito) speak English? Thanks!

obviosuly not fully, but it seems quick to judge chavez' nation as socialist or an autocracy... what are the elements on both sides of the spectrum that exist in thijs country (both democratic and authoritarian)

I'm trying to convince my girlfriend to come with me to Ecuador, partly because I found a really cheap flight to Quito. What are some must see places or things to do in Ecuador? If we do go on the trip, we would be staying in Quito and would have to rely on transportation. So...with that being said, it would be great if we could go to these places were easy to reach by bus or train. Thanks a lot for your help!!!

PS: I am already well aware of Galapagos.. Thanks tho.

I will be going to Bogota soon to finalize an adoption of a older Colombian girl. I have 3 children at home ages 9-14. We are from the states. I think it would be wonderful cultural experience for my children to be there at least a week and they have spring break. I will be there for at least a month. My husband is concerned for their safety. He and I can blend in a bit better, however they are all blonde, blue eyed. Of course with this entorage we cannot get one taxi for the 6 of us OR can we? Do they have taxi vans??!!

Also any safe excursions away from Bogota I would love to hear about. I know there are a few things to see in Bogota, but we also would love to be able to enjoy or view the countryside if possible. We ourselves live in the country.

Any help or suggestions would be most welcome. Thank You from Ohio, USA.

A few friends and I are going to Belize tomorrow for a couple of days. We're probably going to stay at a hostel or less expensive inn. We've never been there before so and this is kind of a travel on a whim sort of thing. We'll be flying into Belize City. Does anyone have suggestions on where we should go and what we should see?

And Central America too. Buenos Aires is one, I suppose. What about the others? By "cosmopolitan" I mean with hip, sophisticated people, interesting architecture, lots of things to see and do, and a pleasure to explore on a Saturday afternoon. Gracias, amigos y amigas.

I'm probably gonna be going to Guyana this summer for a missions trip. I don't have a lotta details, but I know we're going to be spending quite a bit of time in the jungle. What kind of dangers should I expect?! Like what sicknesses could I get (malaria and stuff like that??)? What animals might I come across?


THANKS!

I am looking for a latin country for the following reasons in order of importance:
1. improve spanish
2. work with kids
3. lose the materialistic get back to basics
With that stated I am trying to find a place in which im not completely cut off to some niceties( i dont wanna be 500 miles from a big city) like a good dance club from time to time and must be close to a coast/beach. Also a country that has a diverse demographic and in cases of it not being diverse is not widely known for being open and/or not racist. Basically I want to be able to walk the streets without people looking like they've seen a ghost (la negrita) but at the same time I don't want to just blend in with every other person. After cutting my original location of Cuba I am finding it very difficult to narrow it down to another country or city. I can accept the diff. culture of C. & S. America vs the latin caribbean but would prefer being in places more liberal. Any positive input would be greatly appreciated
