Cuenca

Cuenca is a city in southern Ecuador. It is a colonial city in the highlands, full of students and chill vibes.

Hitching out

North towards Quito

Walk or catch a bus down Av España, past the bus station and airport, to a freeway onramp on your right where the panamericana passes over España. Don't accept a ride unless it gets you out of the city and onto the panamericana.

Places to avoid

Overall, a very safe city.
