Ecuadorians have long enjoyed a curious reputation on the internet. Not for their cuisine, not for their volcanoes, not even for their footballers. No, the claim that keeps resurfacing is that Ecuadorian men are the most generously endowed in the world. Charts circulate online, statistics are quoted, and somewhere out there is always a gr**go who claims to have “read the study.”...

By Jennifer Hansler The Trump administration said Monday that Colombia had “failed demonstrably” in its obligations to fight drug trafficking but the US will continue to provide funding to the country. Although the decision to “decertify” Colombia but continue assistance avoids what experts said was the worst-case scenario of cutting off millions in funding, it is still a significant symbolic move....

A week ago, the organizers of the protest march against the Loma Larga gold mine estimated the event would attract 20,000. On Sunday, they revised the number to 30,000 or 40,000. They were wrong on both counts. Based on drone images, television station Telerama estimated the turnout for Tuesday's "Great March for Water" to be 100,000. Another count by Radio Quito, put the turnout at 120,000....

By Rochelle Beighton Chances are, if you’re planning to hike the Andes in Peru, your journey will take you to Huaraz. The capital of the Ancash region in northern Peru, Huaraz is known as the gateway to the Cordillera Blanca mountain range and is often dubbed the “Switzerland of Peru.” This high-altitude city has become the go-to base for trekkers heading into Huascarán National Park to attempt some of this UNESCO World Heritage site’s 50 recognized trails....
