  • We have moved to Ecuador. Join us on our Expat life in Ecuador. We love nature photography and this channel will focus not just on our new lives in Ecuador but also on us capturing this amazingly diverse country. Are you thinking of maybe moving abroad? Are you ready to move out of your comfort zone? Well maybe its time to "Live the Life you Love"

    What a beautiful spot. I would love to come and rent for a month or two. January and February in northern Ontario would be a good time to clear out for 2 months. Thanks for showing us such a gorgeous place.🦜🦜

      Those months are the rainy season, very humid and lots of mosquitoes . Be prepared.

    Holy! Just last week I met someone from Ecquador who mentioned the local Indigenous people of the Andes and rainforest regions. What a beautiful property. When I get there i will definitely try to coordinate part of my visit there!

    Thanks for sharing this lovely place. Currently looking at the San Jose area for our "exploratory trip" this winter. This spa and the area looks gorgeous.

    • @KrisandMike
      @KrisandMike  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Thanks for watching. Although we live just outside San Jose we consider the whole area from Manglaralto UpTo la entrada our home since they are all 10-15min taxi ride.

    Oh my goodness what a spot! I bet it would be cheaper to fly there and stay for a month compared to renting a cottage here in Ontario for a week! Krissy you need to grow some turmeric. It’s the first time I’ve seen what the plant actually looks like.

    • @KrisandMike
      @KrisandMike  Před 4 měsíci

      So many people come here and stay for a month. Food, accommodations, transportation is so much cheaper than Canada. You can enjoy a month vacation here for $1000 everything in and that’s renting a nice place.

    Another great Vídeo. You 2 are the best Vlogers in Ecuador.. a couple of questions about the retreat 1) is there transportation to go back and forth to the Beach down below ? 2) are there any hiking trails for daily exercise ?

    • @KrisandMike
      @KrisandMike  Před 4 měsíci +2

      Thanks for your kind words. Yes there are hiking trails onsite. Beach access is by taxi to the beach in San Jose or Olon. Taxis are fast and very cheap
