You guys had better be right. I'm coming there and I have the expectations that you've set. I've been through so much miserable shit. I kind of want to be left alone and silent for a while. I have so much negativity to get through. I don't want to alienate anyone, but I need to recover.

Hey David - the vessel is just that…the container. What’s inside the vessel is what you have some control over. If you want to take an active, self-accountable role in your healing process, then you’ll be good wherever you go. This place isn’t for most people… hopefully, if you feel called here, it’s for you. Only one way to find out… Send us a note to info@abecuador.com if we can help with anything.

Living our dreams? Or maybe learning to dream. Couldn't have one up north. A pay raise and a bigger TV? is that a dream? or was that about increasing the pace on our treadmill of a job. Who dreams of more status, money, stuff? Can't dream of a spiritual quality you've never experienced. Somehow we get to Ecuador. Then we lift a few of the veils over our eyes and see more.... or we never do. We start to see things never imagined or heard of, now we can dream. Now we have the stuff of dreams. The warm and fuzzy. Intangible. Anyway - Abundantes, keep sharing the day to day, family life, community. It "encodes" the hard to describe, the feeling of this experience.

On the points made around 57:00 I agree to an extent that the way quito was described by fall off map was a bit harsh, but having been the victim of several crimes there; I wouldn't describe it as safe either. He was more on base than people who talk about how bad things are in the US about shootings crime etc but then go live in ecuador or somewhere else dangerous almost talking as if they where refugees. The bubble comment I think is because the southern area is relativly safe so I think a lot of people dont really feel the gravity of the situacion. All of my local friends talk about how bad things still are

Thanks for sharing your perspective! Our discussion/feedback/response was more so about him sharing a well meaning opinion about a place that he’s never even visited. Everybody has different risk tolerances and individual fear dispositions though. We get it. Southern Ecuador isn’t for most people. Where in Ecuador do you live?

Hey Jasmine - how exciting! Yes, I use my VISA ATM card here all the time. There are daily withdrawal limits in our area ($300 per day) to consider though. Also probably great idea to let you credit and debt card companies know you will be traveling so they don’t restrict your usage. Send us a note to info@abecuador.com with any questions and we’re happy to help if we can!

Ive been paying all from a USA atm card in Ecuador for 14 years. I suggest you get back ups for each of your atm cards. They'll have unique numbers so you can have a stolen card killed. Obviously keep them in different places. Also obviously check the expire dates. These are two lessons I learned the hard way.

I'm a 69-year-old widow responsible for my 83-year-old disabled sister-in-law and my 47-year-old high-functioning autistic daughter. I want to plan a vacation to Vilcabamba possibly this fall. Will we be able to navigate around town with my sister-in-law in a wheelchair? And is there anything I should know to keep us safe from the airport to our vacation accommodations? Plus, would you happen to have recommendations for accommodations? We need 3 individual bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. You're welcome to DM me. Thanks guys.

Ecuador is for "simpletons" No expectations, easy, carefree living, no judgements, no vain competitions or keeping up with the Joneses. Take pride in the small things, respect the land, live off what mother nature has provided, nourish your consciousnes, be humble for ALL THINGS and expect the unexpected to transform and elevate your senses. Beauty can be very cunning and deceptive, depending on what your brain perceives beauty as. If you go to Ecuador for "living rich status" and your def of rich is monetary, then in my opinion, it's not right for you. Nephilim in Ecuador? I'm coming! 😂
