“This is insane, feels like a job interview.” I thought this week as I found myself being interviewed for the “priviledge” of renting an apartment in Quito. Next to me was another guy who was being jointly interviewed for the same apartment. “So why should I choose you?” The owner of the apartment asked. As [...]

I hear it all the time. “I don’t like the heat and humidity of the coast of Ecuador but frankly, Cuenca is too damn cold.” I know, I understand. I usually respond just like I did in my last email… “A lot of people try to push Cuenca as “eternal spring” but actually it’s more [...]

Are you outta your freakin’ mind? It’s not even the top destination for retirees in Ecuador. It was obviously chosen [...]

Most expats in Ecuador don’t own cars. It’s just a fact that with all the cheap/frequent public transport having a car is not a “necessity” just merely a “luxury”. But several expats, maybe you too, shy away from buying a car cause they don’t really understand the process of both purchasing a vehicle and what’s [...]

“This country never ceases to amaze me.” I thought when I saw a 2009 model of a vehicle just $1000 less than the 2012 version as I used-car-shopped earlier this week. Due to the high import tariffs and restrictions on vehicles, cars are not only more expensive than they are in the US, they also [...]

Flights from the US/Canada to Ecuador can often cost $1000 or more. For some it’s a deal-breaker. But it doesn’t have to be. I’m spoiled. I often get to Ecuador [...]

Montanita is coastal Ecuador’s undisputed top party town. With a hippy vibe and Bob Marley music in the air (among other things) for anyone who likes to surf, drink and dance this is your place.

Ahhh, Salinas. At first I didn’t like the place, but now, I really like it. The older you get the more it grows on you. Eerily empty for 9 months a year, this place is like an empty Miami Beach except for on weekends when the local affluent with second homes here come to play [...]
