Spend the semester of a lifetime in the beautiful country of Ecuador in South America!
Students will engage with the challenges of a developing nation in an academically excellent semester abroad. During your time in Quito, you will be surrounded by a secure Christian community. Each week, participants meet with a resident coordinator and have access to a chapel service. You will also have the option to participate in either a local internship or service-learning project.
When most North Americans think of Ecuador there are not many images that come to mind. Living and Learning International aims to change that. Ecuador is a small country about the same size as the state of Colorado, but within its borders exist four distinct regions. The Amazon Jungle, the Andes Mountains where the capital city of Quito sits, the beaches of the Pacific Ocean, and the Galapagos Islands more than 600 miles off the coast. Our students visit all four “worlds.”
This semester is guaranteed to change your life!

`The semester abroad in Ecuador with Living and Learning International was one of the sweetest seasons of my life. I went looking for international experience, exposure to a new culture and language, and just plain adventure, but I came back with so much more than that. I came back with lifelong friendships, a newfound love for and contentment in Jesus Christ, and countless laughs and smiles from the many sweet in-between moments. What a joy and a treasure it has been to share the last three and a half months with the kindest and most genuine community I have ever known in the spectacular country of Ecuador.` — Mia Hayes - 2019
