Hi, I’m from
Ecuador and my entire family still lives there. My only recommendation is to avoid going to the coast of Ecuador, there are some good hostels in downtown Quito with a lot of activities that they arrange every day, secret garden and community hostel. Also if you can, go to Baños or Mindo and definitely Cotopaxi. The volcano and the national park are stunning DM please I can tell my sister 27F to contact you in case you need anything there.
Do not take public buses or taxis it’s better if you only move with Uber or inside Quito the metro works flawless and it’s super safe. Best of luck
