Carlitos you're a Lojano to , so beautiful your province Loja Ecuador ,thanks for letting me know your place
I really enjoy these ride around town vlogs. Brings back a lot of great memories!
Thanks Ron! When will you be back our way?
You are torturing me, Carl! Can't wait to be there again! 🤩
Sorry! 😆 You'll be back before you know it!
@@AbundantLivingEcuador Yes, I know! 😊
You get to influence a lot of people now. Even though your channel isn't the biggest, you have a "niche" community and in my opinion a responsability to really well inform people about the vibe, and filter people you think wouldn't fit in that beautifully growing community. There is a place for anyone and everyone in this country!
Thanks for watching Julie!
We feel a responsibility to be authentic, share our honest perspectives and live the values we believe in! Hopefully that’s what comes across the screen! Ecuador isn’t for everybody. Vilcabamba definitely isn’t for everybody.
We truly believe it IS a special place for those that feel that “vibe”. ❤️ 🙏
Yes, maybe it wasn't clear in the original post but I feel you care about filter people over selling properties, and that feeling of loyalty is serving you well apparently.
@@AbundantLivingEcuador
Right on! We want the best for people, and want to show them what life is truly like here… and the rest is up to the individual! We attempt to explain the pluses and minuses so that folks know how they may or may not thrive here. So happy to hear that you experience it that way! Thanks for the support! ❤️ 🙏
Hi Carl
Absolutely outstanding video.
Really appreciate the camera work on the ebike as you narrate with the beautiful scenery whizzing by! Nice editing too!
Looking forward to doing that ride someday...hope Vilca doesn't change too much.
Glad you enjoyed it Hope to see you down here someday!
@@AbundantLivingEcuador And until then, we'll see you next time!
😆
You live in a lovely corner of the world Carl...
I look so much forward to see/visit the town...
Have a lovely weekend 🌹
You can do it: Dublin- Madrid- Quito- Loja, so easy dear JA.
@@asdrubalvivanco2301 🤗 I know dear Astrubal and, this is exactly what I will be doing and next year...no more colonial "fun" for me thanks...
Are you back in Ecuador??
@@Jetmab04 Yay! Almost you have one foot out of the door, same as me. Yes, I go but I'll only be there for a month
and possibly next year I'll also pack my bags and leave these Icy, gloomy winter days.Take care dear JA, good sunday.
Ah! I wrote in your language the last week but maybe you still didn't get it.
@@asdrubalvivanco2301 😊 not just a foot but the entire me is almost out of here....
No, I never received anything...
@@asdrubalvivanco2301 you bet I'll be out of here as soon I can as well 😊✈️
Oh the Danish language....I didn't get anything Astrubal...probably deleted by the "entitled" from Google..zzz
Have a good Sunday and, take care
Saludos. Excellent. El. Video 💯💯💯💯💯
Muchas gracias! ❤️
That was my reason for taking the "Variante" route over the hump, a way of avoiding the traffic stop at the town gate. I had a Chinese moto and I did my best to make it legal but the computer in Loja was always broken at the appropriate office. So, living on via Cocanama bajo not far from the start of that sendaro (path) I often went that way to get to the village. I recently tried an electric bike, what Carl was riding. It was nice and did the job....helped on the hills....but. As long as I can, I should walk. I am 78 years old in April. Going to town from my house walking around and returning might add up to two miles. Good exercise. Living here you don't need a stairmaster....just stairs ( I am on the 2nd floor) and a walk to town and back most days. A walk along the river now and then. Its a healthy place if you keep things basic and make a lifestyle appropriate to the valley. Check it out. You might like our little town.
Great advice Glen - thanks for sharing! 78 years young!
Me encanta este vídeo ❤❤❤
Nice video Carl. Fernando edited it well. Has a sweet nostalgic vibe to it
I'll be in Loja this summer and hope to visit that beautiful place of Vilcabamba.
Meanwhile your videos will entertain me. Gracias mil Carlos.
Thanks for watching Asdrubal! Stop by and say hello when you're here this summer!
@@AbundantLivingEcuador I'll do it for sure.
I don’t know what I still doing here in Canada!!
Maybe it’s because I live in Alberta.
Come on down then the time is right! Thanks for watching!
Lol It's true about to grow our own food, I'm from the costal and outside my yard we've got mango, chirimoya, papayas, beans, coconut, maracuya (passion fruit)
Good stuff! Thanks for sharing Ronaldo!
Nice video
🙏
Thanks Carl for another great video! Would you respond back as to how I can ask you specifically, about a property on your site. : )
You can email me at Carl@abecuador.com 😃

Send any specific questions to info@abecuador.com and we'd be happy to help! ❤️
For someone with young children what are the kind of options available in terms of education besides homeschooling in vilcabamba?
It really depends on what you’re looking for and how old your children are. There are public schools, alternative schools and nature clubs/schools for younger children in Vilca. There are private schools and international schools in Loja and Cuenca. Homeschooling is also prevalent. Many expats combine different options together. Hope that helps! If you have more specific questions, send us a note to info@abecuador.com 🙏
Do you speak spanish?
Yes, my Spanish is fluent. French is my first language, and I've lived in Ecuador for almost 13 years now. I've had plenty of time to learn 😃
