Retiring in Ecuador: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly Part 1

[@petermartell568]

I left Ecuador with the start of the pandemic. Miss it so much. The smile of the honey seller, the coffee-selling couple describing their life in the hills, the wonderful philharmonic orchestra with the free weekly concerts, the market stall prices and the huge variety of produce. The pride in the folkloric dancers, the eye-pulling beauty of the land, the wonderful climate. When I return (soon), I am staying. I will likely be able to host my extended family.

[@patnewman1]

This is by far the best comprehensive video which I have seen regarding moving to Ecuador. Definitely to the point and no nonsense. Thank you for posting it.

[@SurfariFilms]

I was going to say the same exact thing

[@broadcasttttable]

Steve...don't know where you're living in Ecuador, but I spent a month in Loja, in the south Sierras. Really enjoyed it. Great consistent climate at 6k feet, not too hot, not too cold (central indoor heating is unnecessary), very few expats, and if I wanted to visit some, Vilcabamba was a 20 minute bus ride away. Being pretty much a vegan, the farmers mercados were a paradise, with huge fruits and veggies, and huge amounts of them, exotic included. I could get large, perfectly ripe papayas and mangoes for .50 each. Corner vendors selling fresh, pressed-before-your-eyes sugar cane juice. Same with young coconuts. Every block, it seems, had at least one hole-in-the-wall restaurant, where you could get a big plate of chicken, rice and beans for $2.50. Hope this doesn't spoil it for you folks living there...here come the expats!...lol

[@keayrhyasen1154]

i've been thinking about making the move to ecuador lately as this almost 60 yr old body isn't liking the winters anymore, even in southern california. being vegetarian/quasi-vegan, living near the coast wasn't really desirable since i experienced island living on sicily back in the 80's while stationed there in the service. main dietary staple being fish related. nice to hear of a location that is veggie friendly and has a temperate climate to match.

[@RicMoxley]

This is encouraging to hear, as I'm about 99% vegan. Is it reasonable assumption that the food you buy at a market were grown in an organic kind of way? It obviously won't be "certified" organic, but I'm imagining that most small farmers are using traditional ways of handling pests and such, rather than chemicals. Any idea? Thank you.

[@trauko1388]

As an Ecuadorian, allow me to make a small correction. It is not a "blue eye tax", we all suffer from it since it targets people not used to dealing with dishonest tradesmen, if they get a hint that you have no idea of the market costs or building/trade standards they will take advantage of you in any way possible, in that sense they are pretty much Chinese company-like, they are not looking for repeat business, they go for the cash grab, all else be damned. Of course, that being the case, foreigners are sadly easy marks for such shameful behaviour. I just had our old (as in 40y old, but very dependable) washing machine repaired, but the first "technician" I spoke to told me I was in luck, since he was fixing a similar machine and believed he could "borrow" the required part... never let your eyes off your devices, ensure all fixes are undertaken in place and under your supervision. Enjoy the country.

[@cliffwilliams9571]

Very wise advice. Is it possible to befriend a knowledgeable local person and ask them to negotiate on your behalf? I would be willing to pay each time my local friend would assist me in negotiating a repair or purchase.

I am so very pleased to have stumbled onto Mr Herrman, or as his friends call him, the old fart. I have been recently tortured by JP & Amelia, and just finished another expats video.... both were akin to torture. Finally someone who understands what it is like to actually have to watch & the importance of both information and my time. I'm looking forward to visiting Ecuador, and am anticipating retiring there in the next few years.

Excellent view of living in Ecuador. You are living much more economically than in a developed country and seem to have a nice standard of living. We wish you another wonderful year in Ecuador.

[@AnImperialGod]

You really know well about Ecuador. I am surprised, I am Ecuadorian and you have just described the country in the eyes of Ecuadorians themselves. Blue eye tax is a reality, and it happens a lot. Also it happens with taxis, so I would recommend to take Ubers. Also, I am from Guayaquil but there is a problem of express kidnapping in large cities such as Guayaquil and Quito, I don’t know much about Cuenca. There are many “taxis piratas” or informal taxis that will try to pick you up if you stop for a taxi. These cars are sometimes not registered or are using fake plates. Again, I recommend only to take yellow cabs, or an Uber, which is much safer. Thanks for publishing this video.

[@Steve7318]

I'm finding a hard time finding videos on Ecuador that are actually informative. Most just focus on the different climates and weather which one can easily get from Google. Tried joining the FB Expat group

[@c123ray]

@@Steve7318 Also, a lot of ppl focus on what they eat + drink along w/ sometimes what it costs. Ppl on vacation may share how much they spend on recreational activities + lodging. Others believe "living in Ecaudor" is a 1 month stay in an AirBnB. I wonder what is the best way to find nice, safe, quality, affordable housing. Many ppl who are *traveling* vs living abroad seemingly only recommend AirBnB. There must be another or many other methods for securing long term housing as Mr Hermann has done. But how did he do it, + would he use the same method if he had it to do over again? Or would he use a different method? I'm keen to learn more esp about finding housing as described + info about what he did to stay beyond the 90 day tourist visa, incl obtaining residency. It's been reported on a different country's State Dept Website that many lawyers defraud retirees seeking a residency permit. I'd definitely like to avoid that.

[@ecuadorexpat8558]

I am moving to Ecuador in a few months and have done years worth of research.. I can only tell you that Ecuador is the most beautiful and most affordable Place to retire. My friend just rented a 5 BR House w Land and Garden for a mere 250.00 a month all inclusive , another has a 3 BR in Turi right above Cuenca for only 120 a month! Stay out of Gringo areas as the prices there are rising due to the influx of Expats.. It all depends on what you think you need to continue your life style.. I for myself am glad to get away from the American Lifestyle as it does nothing for me but stress me out financially. One person can easily live there on 1000 a month which is a Middle Class Income .. If you pay 480.00 a Month you are paying way too much .. When going to ecuador one should make connections first and have People there to help w House hunting etc. If you are over 65 most things are half od=ff for you including your visa costs.. Hire you a local facilitator to do your visa..

Steven, V informative info you shared with us, thx, however on the risks of theft, pickpocket, robbery , do these crimes involve guns ? How safe people are from gun related crimes ?

[@stevenherrmann3051]

Good question Ranga, guns are relatively scarce in Ecuador because of the difficulty in registering them and the high cost. However, thieves always find a way to acquire them. Pickpockets do not use weapons but some robbers do. Most robbers use knives and rob in groups to intimidate the victim. They will try to find someone who is alone. If you travel in groups, there is less opportunity to be robbed. Also, there are areas to avoid as a foreigner.

[@c123ray]

@@stevenherrmann3051 I hope you'll be letting us know what these areas to avoid include. I've read south Guayaquil has a lot of gangs, kidnappers, + murders plus the northern coast including 20 - 30+ miles below the Columbian border should be avoided due to cartels + more crime/violence. It would be good to have the perspective + experience plus someone who is likely aware of such dangers to confirm or deny them and to report what you have experienced + the news along with other expats have reported.

Hi Mr. Herrmann. I have watched literally hundreds of videos on Ecuador and haven't seen this addressed.

Your response would be greatly appreciated.

[@stevenherrmann3051]

Yes, Mr. Wright, that is correct. They do not flush the toilet paper in Ecuador, they place it in a waste bin next to the commode. The reason is the way in which they do their plumbing. All pipes through the building lead into one or more square catch basins. These have a tendency to trap the paper and gradually build up resulting in a backup. Even in public buildings your are asked not to flush paper.
