W: You know, for me, Ecuador and Colombia seem to be the same. Can you tell me how to distinguish them?
M: Well, maybe their culture is pretty much the same. But I think Ecuadoreans and Colombians are different.
W: The people are different? You mean the looks or the characters?
M: The latter. Colombian people are more hard-working people. They really c. re about their work, earning a lot of money or stuff like that. But Ecuadoreans are more like" you know" e. sy-going people. So I think that’s the main difference between them.
W: Interesting. What about the weather? Is there any difference between the two countries?
M: Yes. It’s quite different. The weather in Colombia is characterized for being tropical. However, the weather you will experience in Ecuador depends largely on where you are, since there are four distinct geographical areas—the mountains, the eastern rainforests, the Pacific coastal plains, and the Galapagos Islands.
W: Good. We’ve talked a lot about differences. What about similarities in your opinion?
M: Well, if you look at the food, you’ll find that food in both countries is composed of potatoes and corn and many fruits. Thus, if you travel to Colombia and Ecuador, you will pretty much find the same kind of food because it’s made of the same ingredients.
