transport

I understand that bus and taxi transport is easily available but as a gringo I am used to being able to be mobile just by me. Are scooters, either electric or gas, available easily and what are the licensing...

I notice that some of the real estate offerings say they will accept cash, gold or silver. So I think that says something about how people hold their assets.

We are Canadian and considering Ecuador as a place we mmight retreat to from the snow (which might be expected here as I type – tonight! And it isn’t even November!!) So if you would like to contact me as well to talk over what you have learned, feel free. We likely won’t be making a trip down until next winter (bah!) but have lots of time to do more research. westiepuppies at gmail dot com

If you have a little pet that can travel with you in the plane, you might have an easier time. They just have to be in a soft sided carrier that squishes under the seat. Airlines usually restrict flights to carrying one or two pets in the cabin – some peple get upset they are traveling with the dogs and cats. I have travelled with lots of puppies over the years – most people just love puppies!

Jeepers and I thought I was nuts with 6 at one time.

Skype has the ability to call computer to phone and phone to compute as well. You can buy a number anywhere that is the most convenient for you and your friends. If you are just going to call to the USA, then a USA number might make more sense.
