I, too, was inspired by your videos, course and discord group to retire early and move to Ecuador. I arrive on May 26th! Thanks for the inspiration and "how to's"

I think Cuenca is the most beautiful city in Ecuador, I’m feel ashamed that I haven’t visited it for more than 10 years but still continues being beautiful.

I lived in Quito in the 80s and it’s fascinating to see how much and how little has changed in Ecuador.

My family and I are leaving Cuenca soon and this video has brought up so many good memories of when we first arrived in here. I don't usually comment on videos, but thanks for your content. I really like your videos!

We went on our exploratory trip to Ecuador in March. We spent parts of 5 days in Cuenca and this video brings back great memories. Can’t wait to go back and hopefully retire there. Chao!

Amelia and JP! Thank you so much for sharing your life in Ecuador. It makes me so happy to follow your adventures. 🌞 I love your honest up beat style. Dios Bendiga! Mucho Gracias!! Shari

Wow, your timing for this video is perfect for us! My wife and I fly tonight, our first trip to Ecuador (arriving tomorrow, Sunday). One week in Cuenca. Wish we could do more, but that will have to be another trip.

When I return to Ecuador, I will visit Cuenca, wonderful place.

Wonderful to see you back in Cuenca. I will finally get to make my first visit (pandemic- postponed a few times) in August. Like your friend from NY, your videos have been a constant source of inspiration to make the move to unconventionality!

The more I see Cuenca, the more I like it. I like the mix of old and new.

So lovely to see Cuenca again.

We were visiting Cuenca last week. We took a walking tour last Monday and the bus tour the next day. It was a great experience 🙂

Thanks for the Tour of Cuenca. It was premium video of Cuenca! I had heard that Cuenca was nice, but I did not know how nice!

me alegra mucho su regreso a cuenca ustedes conocen muy bien mi ciudad espero que todas las actuales que hagan lo pases muy bien y gracias por compartir al mundo lo bonito que. tiene ecuador como decimos aquí les envío un enorme abrazo de oso y quizá aya oportunidad de volvernos a ver cuidense

Awesome new video! I'm no expert, but the quality of your videos has improved dramatically over the years. Best one yet!

This reunion with your 'family' and meeting the little baby makes me tear up. Also that you are getting back to Cuenca where you once lived and learned to love Ecuador. So beautiful. So happy for your joy!

Hi, Amelia and JP! You inspired my wife Asya and me to make visa and fly to Ecuador. It's good to see you back in Cuenca, we are also bloggers and also are here in Cuenca. We would like to meet both you in person, just drop a message if it's possible!

I love the rain and cool overcast clouds.

That is sooo nice, WOW they brought you flowers!!!!! Wow!!!

Felicitaciones muchachos que hermosa ciudad 👏 bienvenidos

The airport is lovely.

Love this video! Can't wait to get to Cuenca!

Saludos Amelia y JP. Soy de la costa de Ecuador y reconozco que Cuenca es la ciudad más bonita del país, pero al igual que tu, me hace daño la altura y mi cuerpo no soporta tanto frío, pero es excelente para las personas que no tienen ese problema.

Your video brought back so many wonderful memories of Cuenca! Thank you!

"there's not a lot to see here today," you say -- i beg to differ. You showed us so much here, thank you!

You've inspired more than a few people to visit Ecuador. Arriving mid-June for 3 weeks. Probably won't move there, as I love my place in Evergreen, but have really enjoyed your coverage of Ecuador. Thanks.

aww the baby is so cute, that was such a nice surprise at the airport, have a fun time in cuenca amigos

Rain is normal at this time of the year. It’s our "Winter" or rainy season all over but we get no rain from May thru November (our Summer or dry season).

hey!! it ir good to see you in Cuenca again. Enjoy and thanks for the video. My city is so beatiful.

I was just there yesterday and also took the city tour bus. ❤️ Ecuador

You’re right JP! Perfect pronunciation on “pitajaya” you said it without accent 😉👏🏼👏🏼

You did a very good job on this video very informative very entertaining thank you for spending the extra time to make it special. (on a previous video you said that you had spent 40 hours on this video) it really shows.

Lord knows how much I miss Cuenca. Was last there in 2018. We've had above 90 degree temps here in Alabama for over two months. I'm so over it!

Love watching your Equador adventures! We seriously considered Cuenca for retirement. Health issues have convinced us to stay put in the US....We will have to be content to watch people like you!

Your friends are so welcoming and happy. Cuenca is beautiful 😍

Great video, I miss Cuenca , thanks big hugs

Loved the video! And Amelia's necklace. Gorgeous. I've never been to Cuenca, and I hope to visit in the future. I knew it has a reputation of being cute. Thanks to your video, I now know it's awesome. :) A little tidbit about the Quito airport. The old airport used to be outside of the city, and then the city grew around it. Honestly, I think that people ask JP to take pictures is because he's a very handsome man, and they want to flirt with him. :)

Very very happy

It’s so exciting to see my beautiful city through your eyes… I lived in NY for almost 2 years but I can’t wait to visit my city!!! Thank you for your wonderful and funny videos and for making Ecuador known!!!! 🇪🇨😍👏🏻🤗

Thanks for the good video. I missed Cuenca and this helped me relive some of it. :)

Great video JP and Amelia! I visited Cuenca about 20 years ago. Absolutely loved it. Hope to return soon.

great video! such a lovely city!

Hello Amelia & Jp Have a Great Day💖🧚‍♀️🌻😇🙏

I'm still heartbroken that I won't be able to retire in beautiful Ecuador. Nonetheless, I hope, I will make it to Peru in the course of this year. And, once settled over there, I'll try to take regular trips to this lovely country.

Beautiful...thanks...ese es mi país

I would like to say that I used Paul to move all my belongings to Ecuador he was fantastic in helping with all the information that was needed. Thank you

Thank you very much for making this video, I cried every minute I watched it, I felt very nostalgic, I love my city, I love my country.

Your videos have fast track our retirement!! We closed on our new build in Guayaquil in February. We can't wait to move in a couple of years. We are finally doing what I have heard my entire life while living in the USA...going back to were we come from and finally receiving affordable medical insurance 🥰🥰🥰.

Thank you for sharing my beautiful city. It’s been 11 years and can’t wait to go back this July. You guys are awesome, keep rocking 🙏👍💪🇪🇨

Love you guys💕💕💕💕!!!! Beautiful city 👍👍👍👍

WOW! You 2 channel has really grown. Congratulations! This is a beautiful city.

Great video! I've been in Cuenca 4 months and you showed me things I still haven't seen! Thanks!

Awesome 👍👍👍 thank you for letting see lovely Cuenca, beautiful City...

I hope the renovations of the stairs and the overlook in Turi are completed by now (Dec. 31, 2022), or at least will be completed by early Spring. Enjoyable tour..thank you to both!

Thanks to you both for doing such a great job on Beautiful Ecuador!

Nice video, very informative with great explanations!

I like Sunday arrivals, to rest and recuperate, and get ready for my week ahead! Review plans, prepaid excursions etc. No vemos pronto!

I have been following you guys for quite sometime and you guys are amazing and made my move to ecuador

Thank you. Great video. Interesting city.

Crawling through windows is fairly normal in Ecuador. My fiance and I were visiting one of the Catholic churches in Quito. My fiance is well known, has a huge family and a lot of friends. She talked to someone at the church and then we were lead up the stairs to the roof of the church, across from the church built in the 1600's over Aztec ruins. From there we climbed through a window and were back inside the church high above the pulpit. It's common to see tourists pay for guided tours, which can be expensive. Having a local show you around, if you are lucky enough, can get you into places most tourists do not get to see. And I'm not kidding about my fiance, she has a very large family and many friends. Everywhere we went, even in Esmeraldas, we ran into them. I tease her with calling her "Popular". She just rolls her eyes, smiles and replies, "Popular. Suuuuure...". Lol. Maybe one day we'll run into you two somewhere. I'm seriously missing Ecuador right now. Your videos help, so Thank You both. Stephen

I miss Cuenca & plan to return one day in the near future.

pretty views , makes me want to travel more

Cuenca is super nice. I visited Cuenca 2 years ago. Thank you for your videos. I enjoy them…Saludos 🌞😀

Thank you for the video! So many places that i love! We will have to try the roof top resturant in September when we return. All the best and we enjoy your videos greatly.

My wife and I lived in Cuenca from 2020 - 2022 and we had to come back due to our families health issues. Love seeing these videos and the memories always come rushing back! Ty guys for great content

Great video ❤️

Very interesting video. Thanks, guys.

Your good videos have inspired me to visit Ecuador something in the near future,

Nice video and amazing city, greetings from London !

JP is naturally funny

Love it

Nice video!❤

Love the video. I'm planning my second trip to Cuenca and realizing how many things I missed the first time...

Really nice area!

Cuenca is looking beautiful, I hope to go back soon

I'm sitting in Goza right now, based solely on your mention in this video. LOVE IT! ❤️ (and then I'm off to the Punte Roto and Pumapungo)

I love this video! It brings back many wonderful memories of my three visits to Cuenca. What a beautiful city. Turi must have been disappointing for you because of the construction. My last visit to Cuenca was Holy Week, 2017. Beware! Vendors were selling huge canisters of foam and water guns. I saw many drive-bys where many unsuspecting people were blasted on the sidewalks with foam or water. I saw a guy fill a HUGE water gun and squirt a lady in the face in the park in front of the cathedral. She had some choice Spanish words for him as he ran away. LOL. Needless to say, I traveled the less traveled roads to avoid the drive-bys. Thanks for sharing your visit.

We have to flexible every time we flight inside the US. Airlines have not figure out times for departure. Waits, delays and cancellations are vastly common.

You both are awesome couple

Nice !

Amelia and JP, Cuenca misses you!!

Love your videos, been watching you guys forever. Looking forward visiting Ecuador. Have you done a up date video on visas for living in Ecuador?

Hello guys, Nice video...hope everything is going well for you 2. :-))

I left Boston a week ago . I’m in South Africa training soldiers . Then hopefully in September I will be in Ecuador to retire.

Hi, Amelia and JP greetings from the Cuenca City.

saludos amelia ya practique el español poquito a poquito

We will be visiting Ecuador within the next weeks. Any tips on what is needed to enter the country always good to see your videos

So nice..... I'm jealous

Free Hugs 😁

Hello from Denver! Love your videos and hope one day to join you as expats in gorgeous Ecuador!

I remember I watched ur videos since the channel's name was Veggie lovers, and I finally see you again in Cuenca, greetings from Quito.

I am planning to move to cuenca hopefully in January. and try to set up a Dominican/American restaurant out there. Hoping to meet you guys pretty soon.

Wow, I was one of those people who was going to correct you and tell you you're pronouncing "Pitaya" incorrectly. I learned something new today. Thanks for the info.

Sweet & Coffee is the equivalent to Starbucks in Ecuador.

wish i could be there

I like your video very much. You make a video about Dhaka Work, how to work there, about this.

Will Ecuador become the 51st state someday (soon)?

I really enjoyed the format of this video that starts with the the transfer flight from Quito, as well as the corresponding scenes and relevant map information. Would you be able to shed some info that international news stations (like Al Jazeera) point out regarding safety? For example, how did the Cuenca prison riots affect the area, if at all? Has the level of crime gone up since the pandemic? Thank you.

I miss Cuenca. I hope you told your new friend to be careful walking on the wet tile in the park!
