I'm thinking of going on a cheap trip to South America and I was interested in Ecuador. Does the dollar go far? If so, what are some things that are cheap? Also, how much do common things cost on average. For example, gas on average costs ______, cigarettes cost _____. I'm just trying to get an idea of whether or not I can afford the trip. Thanks a lot!!!

When travelling around I have read that authorities will accept a photocopy of your passport (so you can keep your original in a safety deposit box or safe at the hotel).

My question is what part of the passport has to be photocopied for things to go smoothly if you need to show ID while traveling around.

I want to buy a computer system, including a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and printer, for a boy's family who lives in Peru. I live in America and can't fly down there to buy one. I need some names of reputable computer stores that have locations ideally all over Peru, because I don't know which city he lives in, and I need price ranges for a system already loaded with Spanish Windows. What I would basically do is try to get a quote from a computer store, and then send the money to this boy with the information about where his father or mother could purchase it. Could anyone please help me?

I've been a few times and plan to go again in June with my church on a mission trip to Mulukuku. We plan to take some teenagers with us. Some people are telling me that since the political situation has changed they don't reccommend any of us going. I'm going anyway; but am concerned about the kids going. Any advice from someone that has been there recently or is living there now? Thanks

I am considering attending a study travel program for a month. The destinations I have to choose from are the following: -Argentina: Buenos Aires, Cσrdoba, Bariloche, Mendoza -Bolivia: Sucre -Chile: Santiago de Chile -Costa Rica: Flamingo Beach, Heredia, Monteverde -Cuba: Havana, Santiago de Cuba, Trinidad -Ecuador: Quito -Guatemala: Antigua -Mexico: Guanajuato, Playa del Carmen, Oaxaca, Puerto Vallarta -Peru: Cuzco -Republica Dominicana: Santo Domingo.
I am going to be provided accomodation by a host family, but I am still worrying about safety cause my spanish is less than elementary, I am a pale white 19 years old girl (ideal victim!), and I am going there on my own!
Which of these destinations are the safest? I am looking for a small, safe town by a beach, is there anything like that amongst these places?
I was told to go for Costa Rica (Flamingo beach) is it safe?
Thank you for your time!

I'll be coming back to the U.S. from a contract job after 18 months on site and want to take a nice long vacation. I don't want to spend more then $15,000 US and want to live as nicely as possible. I'm 30 y.o., single and plan on having my 15 y.o. and 14 y.o. nieces visit for about a month when school is out. I like to dive and have a PADI Master Diver rating so would like to spend at least a while near the ocean. I've had two semesters of Spanish in college and am using the Rosetta software to improve my spanish. I like to fish and would like a little time near a lake. Archaeology is of interest to me so I've been thinking Peru or Mexico but not really decided yet. I plan on starting the vacation around May. Apartments or casas preferable to hotels. I really just want to take a vacation where I can sit around a little but still have things to do so I'm not bored out of my mind. Where would the best place be to stay in Latin America?
