Felipe has lived most of his life in Colombia and Ecuador. He compares both.
Katia: Hello Felipe, how are you?
Felipe: Hello, I'm fine.
Katia: Listen, I was thinking you know a lot about Ecuador and Colombia right?
Felipe: Yeah.
Katia: What is it that you like about those two countries or what is it that you don't like that much or what would you like to change?
Felipe: Well, what I really love of both countries is nature because, you know, my hobby is mountain climbing so I enjoy climbing high mountains in both countries because you have that, you know that in Colombia and Ecuador there is the highlands and you have really, really high mountains so I enjoy that. And also let's say one thing that I don't like is that cities are too big, you know, and if you get lost, if you travel to Bogot·, it's huge so I don't like cities in Colombia because they're so big, they're huge and you get lost.
Katia: What about in Ecuador? Quito, is it also a big city?
Felipe: Well it is a big city but it's not as big as Bogot·. If you think, you can travel from the south to the north in a couple of hours, maybe two hours, it's not that huge as Bogot·.
Katia: That is so interesting. What about something that you would like to change perhaps of Ecuador or Colombia?
Felipe: Well, the only thing I would like to change is something about tourism because you know that people overseas outside of Colombia and Ecuador, they don't know too much about Colombia and Ecuador. So I don't know, I think the government should, you know, make people overseas know more about Colombia and Ecuador so that we can attract more tourists to our countries.
Katia: That is so true. Actually just by knowing more I want to go to Ecuador and Colombia.
Felipe: There you are, that's great.
Katia: So thank you Felipe.
Felipe: OK, you're welcome.
