The Upside of Living in Ecuador

12 years ago
Uhhh.... I don't live in Ecuador nor do I plan to.

So y'all have at it.

BUT. Can you please make it a candid appraisal?

Honest, clearly written without bashing IL and all those other companies who may have introduced you to this place despite their nefarious commercial intent?

(I know, wading through sales copy to get to the point is a pain).

Have you left your worries behind? Lost weight, addictions, annoying family members?

Have you made friends with Equatorianos who accept you as, well, anything but a gringo?

Are you better having left the horrors of the right or left wing government?

Can you really get a great hamburger or completely organic raw vegetables that turn you into a better person?
