20,000 steps at 9,500 feet - 10 miles

I was in Ecuador for the past week. Flew in on Monday, Feb. 12, on Tuesday we walked from our hotel to the Old Town area, did have to stop several times to catch our breath during the day.  Didn't have enough time to get acclimated to the altitude, the second night there I got absolutely no sleep.  Further posts coming on the beach excursion.

Maybe you want to live there for this reason:
