Sorry to share something so disturbing but I wanted to get it off my shoulders as they say. I keep reading about people going to resort places and often something bad happens but they keep going. Now in Ecuador at a popular beach in Puerto Lopez gang-related violence as occurred and beachgoers were greeted with the sight of four human heads hanging from ropes, The police say it is a warning from a criminal group still whose heads were they? A wave of drug-trafficking violence is sweeping over the country, Three days later, there was another armed attack in the same province, where a further six people died. Meanwhile, I would be packing and heading back home glad I had survived.

I’ve never been interested in visiting anywhere around that area. But boy, am I sick of this gang nonsense. They’re everywhere!

@RasmaSandra They are part nuts, and part deluded into thinking it will never happen to them.

I always told to my husband that I was not at all interested in visiting some areas of the world, no matter how pretty their beaches are.

It is sobering that beaches in Ecuador is not safe due to human heads hanging on a rope.

Every year we go to the beach for family outing and commotion or gang brawl is isolated.
