Now.Expect the Gringo moving to Ecuador.I just hope they don't destroy my country.
I mean seriouly...They have so many enemies around the world.900 military bases in over 130 countries that do not belong to them.What would they do if China Place a base in USA Soil? Just wondering.Hypocresy my friends.
Usa Economy is so bad. People who retire go to cuenca or Ambato,Quito.ETC. we do not Flouride water,no pesticides in our fiood.No chem sprays in the sky.I love you Ecuador.
@Gioxtream thats true i hope they don’t cuz some of them just want to take over some counties.. and our country is beautiful... and too much for them.. i hope they don’t do that cuz either way we have russia in our side ;)
@gsus7125 Bread is around 25 cents, you do need to buy purified water, but food is fairly cheap if you do not buy imported goods or go to touristy places. Gas is fairly expensive, but a cab can get you across the city of Quito for around $5
Ten minutes is not enough to get to know all about Cuenca. I miss the just baked bread every morning, restaurants serving the catch of the day, to go out just grabbing a light jacket never a heavy one. I hope people are still decent and very religious as they used to be.
The disrespect for pedestrians carries over to a high rate of hit and runs. In other words, and if you want to compare countries, in many Latin American countries if one is hit, the driver will run. There is not only the imminent danger, but also the associated general stress. Ecuadorians, I have talked with, agree. And, as far as the food, I wasn't being cynical, the food is great. In fact, Ecuador has a one of the better rates of heart disease, and this too should not be overlooked.
With all due respect, a bit overly optimistic. Concerns: Traffic and total disrespect for pedestrians, high speeds (which demonstrates a high level of impoliteness) pollution especially in the narrow streets of Cuenca, horrible noise levels with incessant honking, clothes are very expensive, non'functioning toilets in buses. Food for thought. Investigate. Oh, and the food is great!
@crazyzabo lol the noise is part of the culture dude, if u like to live in a boring neighborhood, is great some people doesnt agree with that, traffic and disrespect for pedestrians?? even in tokyo it happens, and it doesnt make any difference or affect the tourists, mostly of the food is ORGANIC AND CHEAP the one for investigate is the one with chemicals......
ecuador is very poor country but pakistan is one of the richest country in the world .ecuado already looses war from peru but pakistan wins every war from India, we pakistanis r best in world:D
im moving soon to my ecuador yes you can live comfortably with youre money its awesome here is to hard to live in the states the racism never stops the bull crap people go thru so what better way to live in peace and with out bullshit so im home
@marioblasalegria This. If I walk through the streets people look at me funny and spit on my shoes. I fucking hate that. Other than that, it's a fairly nice place.
At minute 2:17. Our president is not a socialist president. He is a president who has live and studied in the United States for four years. He does know the benefit of capitalism and how necessary it is for prosperity of his country. Nevertheless, in order to promote a capitalist economy, corruption has to be almost completely vanished. And those intentions have been badly seen by the rich and mostly corrupt politicians. The private companies were used to exploit and to take as much money ap. gv
@endlesucces yep u right he wants to beat the corruption,n exploitation,but thats not the way to do it, he has divided the economy instead of increasing it. i mean if you are rich you are still gonna be rich but if you want to succeed now you cant , because of a mediocre president who coundnt compete against colombia and peru,besides he is an employed of hugo chavez n he decides what hugo wants, this is a sort of communism cause an incompetent group of people thats it. Fascism is the greatness
@gfbn1998 i didnt say i dont like my city i said i dont like our goverment i love cuenca n i like...but i ll have to move if i want to succed off course
what a great video, it was very helpful to watch it and get an idea of the local places, life in Cuenca and places to live at an affordabel cost. I am also considering relocating, and settling down in Ecuador, but I have yet to find the appropriate city for me. Thanks for the video! Hopefully, I will get to meet you both some day! - Gio, NYC
@salman1517 peru is a horrible country full of indians and people from there are indigenous horrible looking they are robbers there are a lot of peruvians in Ecuador because they know is WAY better than Peru. ;)
y do ppl always put pics of native ppl! u noe they only live out of the city!!! normal ppl like in ny, california, italiy.. or wherever in the world .. live in ecuador! y didnt u put pictures of markets..... or normal ppl.... or nice houses in this video, then ppl think cuenca is a shity place to visit because u put the worse pictures of cuenca... ecuador is nice... there are white ppl too... there r cars.. nice houses mansions supermarkets technology.... and more..... u should know that!.
@RidiculouslyLuis it not like we show native americans on american videos.. right????
they show cities and everything nice... but when it comes to latin america.. all they show is indigenous people... mountains.. animals and nature.. like wtf what about the cities? and beaches and the nice stuff we have..?
NIce video, a few months back there was an article on AP describing Cuenca as "The World's Most Affordable Retirement Haven" I lived there until the age of 12. Beautiful city indeed.
HOLA a todos soy de Quito y me muero por conocer Cuenca jeje he conocido cuidades de la Costa como Guayaquil, otras del Oriente pero ninguna me gusto jaja pero se q Cuenca es maravilloso a fin de cuentas somos serranos, en mi opinion Quito y Cuenca lo mejor del país!.
I just recently came back, a few weeks ago, from Ecuador. I visited Guayaquil, Cuenca and Quito. Cuenca was the most beautiful city I ever visited. People were very kind and it's just very breathtaking.
Janet, I'm Francisco from Cuenca... I can't thank you enough for this video showing the beauties of my city.
I was an exchange student at Allegany NY, and I hope that my host family comes visit Cuenca soon!!!
If you are still here or planning on coming here let me know I'd love to show you another beautiful town close to Cuenca, it's called Giron, and it has beautiful waterfalls!!!

why moving to ecuador or any other country when everyone is coming to yours..i dont get it..are you out your minds..or i is because there you are treated like a queen..because you are white american..and here in your own country you are treated as equal..as everyone else..
@kleveryanet04 cuz cuenca is in fact a nice place to live .. i'm from there.. as any other place in the world there are things i dont like.. but i DO NOT treat ppl from the us diferent from any other .. and they are not american .. american is a person who lives in America .. the continent .. ....as i know the us is not america...
@kleveryanet04 My dear, there are many reasons why a person would want to move to a foreign country and it's not just because of the MONEY. It seems to be that all the people you mess around were just poor and dreaming to emigrate. It also happens the opposite, people who prefer to follow their hearts looking for their dreamed place where they can do what they love, sports, arts, ideal geography, climate, peace, etc. Money is not the only reason why people move.
my parents are from ecuador and im 19 and i already went about 3 times to visit where both of my parents are from quito and guayaquil but for me i love guayaquil way more than any other place in ecuador cuz its louder fun and lots of thing to do but if your looking for a quiet place cuenca or quito would be the best place .............well thats just a short opinion of mine :)
Many thanks for your video. I'm an American searching for a place to retire: I might stay in the States, but I'm also considering an ex-pat retirement. Your video really helped to paint a picture of Ecuador with respect to future retirees.
I'm from Cuenca and I live in New Jersey and attend NJIT the school of architecture. I'm currently in Rome and this trip has made me realize the beauty of my country, specially my native Cuenca. I'm happy seeing this video and I want to thank you for the appreciation that you have for Ecuador. I cant wait until I go back.
@sacredheartu I´ve been in the ghettos and I tell you what, your house is the bad ghetto in here, cause when I went to Cuenca It was low on crime,drugs and ho´s city compared to your ghetto in the U.S,.Until you don´t step on this city and walk around, you can´t say anything just for watching some video or hearing from someone else.
@LeXdebobbit i totally agree with you and the guetto in Cuenca there u only see poor people living poorly not crackheads like in the guetto in the US. I live in New York but im from Cuenca and there is no other place compared to it because each city in the world is unique.
This video is NOT a true REP. it does not show the city correctly. please view this video as it a true REP. IT's a DUMPy city sort of like a BAD GHETTO in the US.
@sacredheartu Dear, I see you have never been in a real ghetto in New York City. I have learned that poor people are not allways synonimous of bad neighborhood.
@BlueSkies360 Crime is relatively low compared to the US you can pull crime stats online.But keep in mind most crimes are not reported there and the Big City Quito and Guayaquil are worse.Top of the line health insurance is around $100 per month. Taxes what type? I'm from Calif what I pay for rent $2100 I would live real good anyplace in South America!
I always have my father in law negotiate all my deals, saves me a boat load of money.
Ecuador is very small country but the land is very diverse, check out other areas of Ecuador as well! Crucita, Quito, Portoviejo, Bahía de Caráquez, Manta, Salinas, Esmeraldas etc. And many other great places to live in
I If anyone is thinking of moving there do YOUR RESEARCH, do not buy property right away rent for a year or so to make sure Ecuador is a good fit for you! My advise to you is rent first and take Spanish classes the ability to speak the language goes a long way. If you do decide to settle in Ecuador and buy a casa of your own, have a trusted friend negotiate the deal, if not, trust me you will get hit with the Gringo tax and make sure you have a good Attorney.
Hi. I am seriously thinking about moving to ecuador. I know that the volcano went off in Quito. How are people coping and how are you doing? I need to learn alot more about moving abroad. How can we talk?
My name is Tasha and my family and I are wanting to move to Ecuador. Paute is the city thats near Cuenca. Would this person Ecuadorian/american man help us locate a home that we could buy? We are trying to get all of our ducks in a row. Can you help us?
Hey Janet...thanks for the great vid. My wife and I are moving into the serious planning stages of a retirement move to Ecuador. Your vid has put Cuenca on our "must see" list. Thanks for including your email addresses. You'll be hearing from us.
Es me jor que venga mas gente a nuestras cuidades para que se hagan exitosas como nueva york etc. y el turismo hace mucha plata para los negocios, pero ojo a que nos vengan a robar los gringos brutos, bien parados tenemos que estar.

You are a ignorant and arrogant racist!, you wanna kick out of Ecuador all the white people, wtf is wrong with you!, have you been kicked out of the US or any other country for being a latino or having brown skin???
These are times of globalization and anybody can go and live anywhere if you have a legal way to do so . No matter the color religion or nationality. You need to respect other people if you want to get the respect you think you deserve.
haber primero para ser "presidente" hay que saber escribir,aqui te va una leccion gratuita no es cresca es CREZCA,no es tiera es TIERRA,no es ande es HAN DE,no es invesil es INVECIL,yo vivo en un pais primenrmundista y mis vecinos son de aca y no veo a ninguno de ellos jodiendome,si te refieres a las reformas de su gobierno y su politica adoptada debes de criticar a su gobierno mas no a todas las personas de determinado pais,ya que hay muy buenas personas en donde sea,ni espanol ni ingles sabes

@whiteyford12 si hijo de puta con los blancos imbesil oh que no te das cuenta como nos tratan a nosotros? deja de ver las peliculas de hollywoodque eso solo es fantasia no es nada comparado a la vida real!
@thepimpinman02 a un ignorante se lo trata mal sin importar su raza o lugar de origen..dime como nos tratan los blancos?? yo vivo en forest park chicago un barrio con la mayoria blancos y te puedo decir que los unicos que tratan mal son los acomplejados como tu..no por algo en los barrios latinos se odian por nacionalidad..a un "blanco" mientras hables su idioma jamas te tratara mal..por el contrario son gente bien fresca..en comparacion a los filatiquillos..esos si son creidos
@sudamericuencano lo que dices es mentira. tu de verdad crees que a los blancos les caes bien? ponte a pensar ? es facil fingir. y ignorante seras vos ya se nota que no estudiastes aqui imvesil!
@thepimpinman02 mentira???? no hermanito lo que digo es la plena..los ignorantes como tu son maltratados en donde sea..sin importar tu raza o lugar de origen..hablando de ignorancia se escribe IMBECIL no "inVesil" asi que antes de hablar de ignorancia ve y arregla la tuya ACOMPLEJADO!!!
@sudamericuencano haha imbecil lo escribo como quiero y si bes vives en america y no te das cuenta lo que trata de aser el govierno me estoy dando cuenta que hablo con un estupido creido que piensa que es todo. cuando estudies todas las leyes habla estupido porque aparentemente no sabes nada
@thepimpinman02 no escribes como "quieres" si no como puedes tontin..vivimos en el capitalismo..en donde el fuerte toma ventaja del debil..algo mas que me quiereas ensenar???? y si no te gusta el sistema corea del norte y Cuba te esperan..adelante.vete...no porque seas un debil abusado por los fuertes vas a cambiar la politica mundial..tu ignorancia no es razon suficiente para que los listos sean tratados igual que los idiotas

Porque es facil fingir si no te as dado cuenta. Deja de ser estupido estudia la historia que esto no es una pelicula de hollywood donde los blancos son buenos como dices acuerdate que el dinero habla mas que nada!

En todo lugar hay gente mala, pero alla , hasta las leyes, se hacen de la vista gorda. Donde hay corrupcion, el chapa pide carnada, compras la libertad, existe alla entre nosotros el cholo, el indio, donde si tienes un apellido con ch eres indio, el color, el dinero, el poder pisotea al pobre. Mi pais es bello hay gente bella, peor el crimen, el racismo, y otras desagradables cosas estan ahi en cifras elevadisimas, o hay peor siego que el que no quiere ver!!
por alguna razon ha leido el libro confessions of an economic hitman?? para que vea que la corrupcion tambien esta presente en la sociedad que usted defiende, y es mas esa corrupcion ha producido hejemonia elitista economica y racial, asi que antes de criticar a una sociedad busque sus origenes, y Cuenca es muchisimo mas seguro que el bronx, compare el numero de crimenes, y Cuenca si es paradisiaco, digame EEUU es tal y cual como lo pintan? o cual es la ciudad perfecta?
Lulita por si no te has dado cuenta este video esta dirijido hacia la gente retirada de paises desarrollados que buscan un lugar fuera de sus paises para vivir el resto de sus dias, donde su cheque de retiro les alcance para vivir tranquilamente. A ellos va dirijido . este video , ellos no les interesa nuestros problemas socio-economicos -politicos .
Seguro ignoras que la organizacion International Living catalogo a Cuenca como el mejor lugar para retirarse a vivir en el mundo.
Esta organizacion internacional , la mas reconocida en el mundo del real estate para retirados es muy influyente . Otros lugares que compiten contra Cuenca tratan de batir a Cuenca pero la Atenas del Ecuador tiene muchas ventajas sobre las otras .
Se tomaron muchos aspectos para nombrarla como la mejor para retirados .
Usted con su comentario y todavia en ingles lo unico que hace es tirar tierra sobre el esfuerzo de atraer retirados a Cuenca .
Cuenca en comparacion del promedio nacional tiene menos inseguridad eso lo dicen los datos de la policia.
Si hay otro sitio para retirados en Ecuador y esta es Vilcabamba en Loja pero esta no tiene las comodidades de Cuenca , su clima primaveral , la mejor agua de latinoamerica que la puedes tomar incluso de la llave , las bibliotecas , actos culturales , grado de educacion de la gente ,etc .
Usted salio con algun resentimiento de alla . Seguro no tuvo las oportunidades que aca encontro .
Es tipico en quienes tienen algun resentimiento hablar mal de algo o alguien.
Cuenca tiene sus cosa malas pero le pregunto acaso hay algun lugar llamado paraiso ? Digamenlo para irme , lo que no entiendo es su desprecio por su lugar de origen cuando su situacion no a cambiado nada al contrario yo diria que a empeorado . Porque vivir en el Bronx es peor que vivir en el barrio El vecino de Cuenca . Yo vivo en Astoria y ni estando loco voy para alla , es 100 veces mas peligroso que Cuenca .
una cosa es reconocer el crimen y comparar con otras ciudades y darse cuenta que en nuestro pais hay muchas cosas aparte de los que se dedican a ser racistas e insultar, que deben cambiar, solo vivan un dia una experiencia desagradable y sabran, vivo en Bronx, no me ha tocado vivir eso, hay cosas desagradables, pero en lo general, evaluas y hay que saber diferenciar, y vivirlo no quiere decir que menosprecio mi pais, pero si condeno la forma en que mi pais es inseguro, con gente que hace dano
hay lugares hermosos con menos delincuencia todavia en Ecuador, pero como alguien salio a insultar y nose que..como siempre empiezan con el regionalismo etc,...si leen mis comentarios en ningun momento reniego de mi pais y me siento muy orgullosa de mis raices y se mas que las personas que se dedican a criticar y ni siquieran entienden un comentario, que soy decendiente de los indios y los espanoles, soy mezcla de la cual me siento orgullosa,.y lo que diga de la situacion que se vive es diferent
Bien dicen que las verdades duelen, y si les duele a muchos lo siento, tal vez con discutir piensan solucionar algo, yo nunca he dicho aqui que pongo por encima NY o cualquier otro lugar sobre mi patria, yo he dicho lo que hay y la verdad no se oculta, bien sabemos que en Cuenca como nuestra patria hay la delincuencia que supera a las de otros lugares, tomando en cuenta la poblacion, tienen que ser relistas y poner que Cuenca no es un lugar paradisiaco como lo dice el video, y punto...
En Cuenca hay gente que aunque le guste mucho vivir ahí reniega de su sangre indígena y/o es racista. ESO es denegar de las raíces, ESO.
Es una ciudad especial y es la tierra de uno, pero no le tiene que gustar a uno completamente ni nada. Ni que fuera obligación...Vaya manerita de razonar...
al existir una persona kien reniega de sus raices autoctonas se esta autocalificando supongo es alguna sra con diferente punto d vista.. ^_^ .. Viva mi cuenca... !!!!!!
lo q veo aki es una hermosa ciudad reconocida por su cultura y buenas tradiciones con problemas existenciales como en cualkier otra parte del planeta, la calidad de vida es buena, mucho mejor q la q hay en usa, la existente xenofobia la hacemos nosotros mismos al sentirnos menos o mas que otras personas punto a favor en new york todos somos iguales pues somos inmigrantes, en fin no entiendo el punto de la discusion,
la discusion es que la usuario lulita22 esta hablando mal de Cuenca como si fuera una ciudad sin cultura ni educacion, yo solamente le demostre que se equivocaba, ella decia que es muy sucia e insegura y que nueva york es mejor, yo solamente le recorde que nueva york tiene partes muy sucias y muchisima delincuencia y pandillas, yo vivi 2 meses en ny por eso lo dije, mas no tengo problema con los demas y si con mucho orgullo TENGO SANGRE INDIGENA EN MIS VENAS, MUCHO ORGULLO,
maybe you need to learn more my friend before calling me dumb or wannabe , i don't disrespected people like you do>>.so you go and educated yourself before putting and irreal video , i live in a real world , if you don't see it... sorry for you>..
Hello There. I am from cuenca went to school there, went to one of the best high school in the world "Daniel Cordova Toral". I have a excellent job. I am an engineer, thanks to my schooling in Cuenca. I will go back there one day. Lived in NYC "Brooklyn/Queens, been robed there, been robed in cuenca. I still love cuenca. What is your point lulita22.
You should realize that you are not the only one who has someone specialized in a field. I have a doctorate degree and I can tell you that the education is not free here. Although I came to the US when I was only 13, I have not lost my sense of patriotism and respect for my beautiful country of Ecuador. Y otra cosa, si quieres ser aceptada en la sociedad americana, tienes que aprender a escribir mejor el Ingles. En realidad que da pena el ver como te menodesprecias a ti mismo.
i know that I love to live in Ecuador if where like.. decades ago not now..My son is in a great school where in my coutry the chances are low...everything in good education is paid my son went to Tennico Salesiano in Cuenca and I paid for his educacion not like here where if you smart you can go to specialized free education.. don''t you know that..
omg NY is more dangerous than cuenca, a lot gangs, crime,rats, dirty areas, by the way the crime rate in ny is bigger than the one in cuenca, and also the lifestyle is better than ny, are u living in the bronx?, if u dont respect u own home town, your own language, and culture , u are a wannabe or not? si o no? and also mi tarea esta terminada, espero que todavia te acuerdes de el espanol
Dumb will be for my go back to my contry where a parent spank his son in the middle of the street... you dont see that ..you dont see street dogs ??? you don'see cruelity there???I live in new york and I know crime rate here. have you compare the crime there in USA and in Ecuador go and do your homework who's is dumb ??? me or you????I see things that you don't see'. i know there's is wonderful people there, i know my country is beautiful!!!
where man disrispect woman in the street where they touch and talk to ladies dirty words...in the market for named a place...you don't go to the market well regular people go no wannabes....
rigns a bell for you??..this friday he will take a test on one of the most elite public free!!! school in the country like Hunter": also rings a bell for you???"..only this is why I am here not much compare to Cuencita>>>>where people are racist, you don't thinkn I know well my people I lived half of my life there where there not respect for children literally parents send kids to work for them Is that right for you???
WANNABE!!! I'm very humble lady that I don't like to live in Ecuador and I decided to live here in USA because I am living my american dream, I got my career here my son goes to a public and selected school here in nyc, he will go to specialized high school "Bronx Science"
good jugment, yes I have, I born in Cuenca, I used to be tocuh in the middle of the street when I was a teeneager, people don't respect if you are alone and in the middle of the day in the middle of the city where is suppose to be "safe" I been robbed in the bus..:( Cuenca is not sefe maybe you all the time go with people and never go in the bus or in and cab or maybe you never walk in the city you are enjoying Ecuador in a different way!!no the real way!!
lulita22 in every city in the world u can find crime, gangs, etc, u comment doesnt make any sense, and what do you mean with "the real way"?? so if i go to ny, chicago , boston etc, and if i get robbed is that their real way??? idont think so, cuenca is a beautiful city, the food is great, the people is educated and also is the most safe city in ecuador, if u got any fear or regional complexity, just keep it on yourself, and lat others enjoy CUENCA. dont be DUMB
well one aspect you just forget is about safety ...is not more safe in Ecuador there a lot of robbery like you can't imagen, maybe people don't tell you, I know ,my country and is it beautiful but at some point if you are interesting in living there think about safety maybe if you go the country not thecity will be more nice and is it very expensive also to live there, maybe not for you but the peple that are from there..
lulita22 where are u from or the correct question is where are u living know? cuenca is the safer city in Ecuador please make comments with good judgment...
if u get touched in the middle of the street, in which area of cuenca u where living??? are u kind of nerd or what?, there is peolple who cannot live easily because of their economy situation, but in the oher hand cuenca is the city in where most of their habitants can live nicely and cool compared with another ecuadorian cities, so dont generalize, i been in many cities around the world and i still love cuenca, i dont have any "wannabe" complex.
Thank you so much for making this video and posting it! I lived in Cuenca between 2006 and 2007 through foreign exchange. It was the greatest year of my life and I really miss Cuenca a lot.
Actually, the citinship in Cuenca is growing really fast. People that went to work in USA and Spain is comming back. In addition, much interest of foreigners in living with good quality at low cost. Control must be faced in that sense. Cuenca shoul not grow and become a city as Quito.
I'm so happy with the response to my video. Yes my sister Cameron did move to Cuenca and she is doing very well so far. Thank you for all your positive comments. - Janet Luongo, the producer
I have listened and watched your incredible video many times. Thank you. I am considering a visit this summer and would appreciate an opportunity to speak with you and or your sister Cameron and gain some insights. If you could perhaps give me a mailing address or email address.
Now.Expect the Gringo moving to Ecuador.I just hope they don't destroy my country.
I mean seriouly...They have so many enemies around the world.900 military bases in over 130 countries that do not belong to them.What would they do if China Place a base in USA Soil? Just wondering.Hypocresy my friends.
Usa Economy is so bad. People who retire go to cuenca or Ambato,Quito.ETC. we do not Flouride water,no pesticides in our fiood.No chem sprays in the sky.I love you Ecuador.

Thanks

@gsus7125 Bread is around 25 cents, you do need to buy purified water, but food is fairly cheap if you do not buy imported goods or go to touristy places. Gas is fairly expensive, but a cab can get you across the city of Quito for around $5

Ten minutes is not enough to get to know all about Cuenca. I miss the just baked bread every morning, restaurants serving the catch of the day, to go out just grabbing a light jacket never a heavy one. I hope people are still decent and very religious as they used to be.

The disrespect for pedestrians carries over to a high rate of hit and runs. In other words, and if you want to compare countries, in many Latin American countries if one is hit, the driver will run. There is not only the imminent danger, but also the associated general stress. Ecuadorians, I have talked with, agree. And, as far as the food, I wasn't being cynical, the food is great. In fact, Ecuador has a one of the better rates of heart disease, and this too should not be overlooked.

With all due respect, a bit overly optimistic. Concerns: Traffic and total disrespect for pedestrians, high speeds (which demonstrates a high level of impoliteness) pollution especially in the narrow streets of Cuenca, horrible noise levels with incessant honking, clothes are very expensive, non'functioning toilets in buses. Food for thought. Investigate. Oh, and the food is great!

@crazyzabo lol the noise is part of the culture dude, if u like to live in a boring neighborhood, is great some people doesnt agree with that, traffic and disrespect for pedestrians?? even in tokyo it happens, and it doesnt make any difference or affect the tourists, mostly of the food is ORGANIC AND CHEAP the one for investigate is the one with chemicals......

At minute 2:17. Our president is not a socialist president. He is a president who has live and studied in the United States for four years. He does know the benefit of capitalism and how necessary it is for prosperity of his country. Nevertheless, in order to promote a capitalist economy, corruption has to be almost completely vanished. And those intentions have been badly seen by the rich and mostly corrupt politicians. The private companies were used to exploit and to take as much money ap. gv

@endlesucces yep u right he wants to beat the corruption,n exploitation,but thats not the way to do it, he has divided the economy instead of increasing it. i mean if you are rich you are still gonna be rich but if you want to succeed now you cant , because of a mediocre president who coundnt compete against colombia and peru,besides he is an employed of hugo chavez n he decides what hugo wants, this is a sort of communism cause an incompetent group of people thats it.

@kleveryanet04 My dear, there are many reasons why a person would want to move to a foreign country and it's not just because of the MONEY. It seems to be that all the people you mess around were just poor and dreaming to emigrate. It also happens the opposite, people who prefer to follow their hearts looking for their dreamed place where they can do what they love, sports, arts, ideal geography, climate, peace, etc. Money is not the only reason why people move.

Social Security must have a roommate and that is still
$500. a month out of $674. a month SSI check. But people
on SSI can't live outside of U.S.A. so their only hope is
Section 8.

I If anyone is thinking of moving there do YOUR RESEARCH, do not buy property right away rent for a year or so to make sure Ecuador is a good fit for you! My advise to you is rent first and take Spanish classes the ability to speak the language goes a long way. If you do decide to settle in Ecuador and buy a casa of your own, have a trusted friend negotiate the deal, if not, trust me you will get hit with the Gringo tax and make sure you have a good Attorney.

Esta organizacion internacional , la mas reconocida en el mundo del real estate para retirados es muy influyente . Otros lugares que compiten contra Cuenca tratan de batir a Cuenca pero la Atenas del Ecuador tiene muchas ventajas sobre las otras .
Se tomaron muchos aspectos para nombrarla como la mejor para retirados .
Usted con su comentario y todavia en ingles lo unico que hace es tirar tierra sobre el esfuerzo de atraer retirados a Cuenca .
Pantaleon70 1 year ago
Cuenca en comparacion del promedio nacional tiene menos inseguridad eso lo dicen los datos de la policia.
Si hay otro sitio para retirados en Ecuador y esta es Vilcabamba en Loja pero esta no tiene las comodidades de Cuenca , su clima primaveral , la mejor agua de latinoamerica que la puedes tomar incluso de la llave , las bibliotecas , actos culturales , grado de educacion de la gente ,etc .
Usted salio con algun resentimiento de alla . Seguro no tuvo las oportunidades que aca encontro .
Pantaleon70 1 year ago
Es tipico en quienes tienen algun resentimiento hablar mal de algo o alguien.
Cuenca tiene sus cosa malas pero le pregunto acaso hay algun lugar llamado paraiso ? Digamenlo para irme , lo que no entiendo es su desprecio por su lugar de origen cuando su situacion no a cambiado nada al contrario yo diria que a empeorado . Porque vivir en el Bronx es peor que vivir en el barrio El vecino de Cuenca . Yo vivo en Astoria y ni estando loco voy para alla , es 100 veces mas peligroso que Cuenca .

Bien dicen que las verdades duelen, y si les duele a muchos lo siento, tal vez con discutir piensan solucionar algo, yo nunca he dicho aqui que pongo por encima NY o cualquier otro lugar sobre mi patria, yo he dicho lo que hay y la verdad no se oculta, bien sabemos que en Cuenca como nuestra patria hay la delincuencia que supera a las de otros lugares, tomando en cuenta la poblacion, tienen que ser relistas y poner que Cuenca no es un lugar paradisiaco como lo dice el video, y punto...

En Cuenca hay gente que aunque le guste mucho vivir ahí reniega de su sangre indígena y/o es racista. ESO es denegar de las raíces, ESO.
Es una ciudad especial y es la tierra de uno, pero no le tiene que gustar a uno completamente ni nada. Ni que fuera obligación...Vaya manerita de razonar...

lo q veo aki es una hermosa ciudad reconocida por su cultura y buenas tradiciones con problemas existenciales como en cualkier otra parte del planeta, la calidad de vida es buena, mucho mejor q la q hay en usa, la existente xenofobia la hacemos nosotros mismos al sentirnos menos o mas que otras personas punto a favor en new york todos somos iguales pues somos inmigrantes, en fin no entiendo el punto de la discusion,
klaudita11 2 years ago
la discusion es que la usuario lulita22 esta hablando mal de Cuenca como si fuera una ciudad sin cultura ni educacion, yo solamente le demostre que se equivocaba, ella decia que es muy sucia e insegura y que nueva york es mejor, yo solamente le recorde que nueva york tiene partes muy sucias y muchisima delincuencia y pandillas, yo vivi 2 meses en ny por eso lo dije, mas no tengo problema con los demas y si con mucho orgullo TENGO SANGRE INDIGENA EN MIS VENAS, MUCHO ORGULLO,

You should realize that you are not the only one who has someone specialized in a field. I have a doctorate degree and I can tell you that the education is not free here. Although I came to the US when I was only 13, I have not lost my sense of patriotism and respect for my beautiful country of Ecuador. Y otra cosa, si quieres ser aceptada en la sociedad americana, tienes que aprender a escribir mejor el Ingles. En realidad que da pena el ver como te menodesprecias a ti mismo.

good jugment, yes I have, I born in Cuenca, I used to be tocuh in the middle of the street when I was a teeneager, people don't respect if you are alone and in the middle of the day in the middle of the city where is suppose to be "safe" I been robbed in the bus..:( Cuenca is not sefe maybe you all the time go with people and never go in the bus or in and cab or maybe you never walk in the city you are enjoying Ecuador in a different way!!no the real way!!
lulita22 2 years ago
lulita22 in every city in the world u can find crime, gangs, etc, u comment doesnt make any sense, and what do you mean with "the real way"?? so if i go to ny, chicago , boston etc, and if i get robbed is that their real way??? idont think so, cuenca is a beautiful city, the food is great, the people is educated and also is the most safe city in ecuador, if u got any fear or regional complexity, just keep it on yourself, and lat others enjoy CUENCA. dont be DUMB
sudamericuencano 2 years ago
well one aspect you just forget is about safety ...is not more safe in Ecuador there a lot of robbery like you can't imagen, maybe people don't tell you, I know ,my country and is it beautiful but at some point if you are interesting in living there think about safety maybe if you go the country not thecity will be more nice and is it very expensive also to live there, maybe not for you but the peple that are from there..
lulita22 2 years ago

lulita22 .
if u get touched in the middle of the street, in which area of cuenca u where living??? are u kind of nerd or what?, there is peolple who cannot live easily because of their economy situation, but in the oher hand cuenca is the city in where most of their habitants can live nicely and cool compared with another ecuadorian cities, so dont generalize, i been in many cities around the world and i still love cuenca, i dont have any "wannabe" complex.

Thank you so much for making this video and posting it! I lived in Cuenca between 2006 and 2007 through foreign exchange. It was the greatest year of my life and I really miss Cuenca a lot.

Actually, the citinship in Cuenca is growing really fast. People that went to work in USA and Spain is comming back. In addition, much interest of foreigners in living with good quality at low cost. Control must be faced in that sense. Cuenca shoul not grow and become a city as Quito.

I have listened and watched your incredible video many times. Thank you. I am considering a visit this summer and would appreciate an opportunity to speak with you and or your sister Cameron and gain some insights. If you could perhaps give me a mailing address or email address.
