Fruits

Ecuador: As most of you know that I love Fruit. Ecuador has every fruit I’ve ever heard of! Although seedless watermelons and grapes don’t exist, there are so many great fruits! Papaya, fresh mangos, passion fruit, Taxo, this weird sour fruit, green oranges, orange lemons, figs, Ect.

America: Although there are cherries, most bananas come from Ecuador. Less fruits than in Ecuador, that’s for sure.

Friends:

Winner: America I promise I’ll write a few soon. (Send care packages if possible)!
