The Gringo Diaries: Brutal Honesty from Ecuador

Hey there, fellow adventurers and potential expats! In this episode, I'm sharing some real talk about life in Ecuador. I recently got an email from a Canadian couple planning their move, and it inspired me to dive deep into the pros and cons of expat life here.
I'm covering everything from the 5-month exploration trip they're planning (smart move!) to the realities of Ecuadorian culture, respect, and daily life. We're talking visas, banking, healthcare, and even the best way to handle your belongings when making the big move.
Want to know about the weather in different parts of Ecuador? Curious about the food scene or worried about petty crime? I've got you covered. I'm also sharing my personal experiences with things like power outages and banking, including some tips on getting the best CD rates.
Whether you're seriously considering a move to Ecuador or just daydreaming about expat life, this episode gives you the unfiltered truth. No rainbows or unicorns here (well, maybe a few unicorns farting glitter), just honest advice from someone who's been living the expat life for over three years.
