Просмотров 1,8 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Join our family as we walk you through our last 24 hours in ECUADOR! We would have never thought our trip of a lifetime would end this way. We started to feel at home in Cuenca, just as the nationwide turmoil began. Prison uprisings, shootings and bomb threats simultaneously took place around the country. Having 2 young children, thousands of miles away from home in this tense situation was a h...

Join us as we get acquainted with the streets of Cuenca, Ecuador. Cuenca seems like a small bustling metropolis nestled in a remote part of the Andes Mountains. Come along as we check out the world famous "Toquilla" hats at Museo El Sombrero and indulge in savory hornado at Mercado 10 de Agosto. So far, we are liking Cuenca and what this colorful city has to offer. If you are enjoying our conte...
NIGHTMARE AVIANCA FLIGHT & AIRBNB EXPERIENCE IN CUENCA, ECUADOR
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.6 месяцев назад
As we packed up and started our travels from Quito to Cuenca, we had no idea what the next 24 hours would hold for our family! It all started with our horrible Avianca Airlines flight, when a travel time of 45 minutes turned into over 6 HOURS! We were told the winds were too strong for us to land in Cuenca, but passengers who had family members on the ground informed us multiple flights from ot...

Walking at high elevation with the intense sun is NO JOKE let alone with babies and gear! I feel you!
I am Ecuadorian living in the states:) That hornado looks so good!!! I am so sorry for the bad customer service and the flight delay you had. Great content, thank you for sharing and for visiting Ecuador. Safe travels, much love to you and your family!
Thank you so much for the kind words and for taking the time to check out our content! Yes the hornado had me in a chokehold our whole time in Ecuador😩🙌🏿. It was such a a great experience even with some of the hurdles along the way. We felt at home in Ecuador and plan to return. Consider yourself blessed to be from such a beautiful country. Please subscribe if you get a moment. Thank you and much love!
Love the content! Visited Cuenca (drove there from Guayaquil and back) in summer 2022.loved it…except for being short of breath all the time…. My wife is originally from Ecuador-about an hour north from Guayaquil); we’ve been married for 30 years. We wish we’d spent more time in Ecuador with our three children (now all adults ranging from 25-29 years old) when they were younger-last time we were there as a family was in 2007. Life goes by quickly my friend. Cherish your time with your children!
Lol yes that air was extra thin and crisp😩😅. I am so glad to hear about your time in Ecuador with your family. I indeed cherish these times. It is one of our main motivating factors as parents to have our children all to ourselves in a new land, learning at the same time how to adjust to life in a new part of the world. Your heartfelt words do not go unheard. We are blessed to have the opportunity to travel as a family and intend to soak it all up!😁🙌🏿. Please subscribe if you have not already and we wish you and your family the best🙏🏿❤️
Representing Stock Da Bar! I see you. Always a beautiful view there!
You already know! 🙏🏿
Damn, that’s some Boy Scout stuff! Dan is the man!
Whipping work….. Hallelujah
Pretty area! What's that, like a 7 - 8 hr drive, with two little ones? Whoa!
Yes it sure was. 😳😩 I remember the smell like it was yesterday😅
Dan's the man! Long process when you have wet wood to work with, nice job!
You can’t live in fear.
You sure can’t! Thats why my family was in Ecuador for 3 months!😁🙌🏿
Oops!
Im a white women witj blind hair and white pale skin. My husband is as light as I and he is Ecuadorian. You have e to talk to do the walk. Gringos will get gringo prices. I’ve been married for 30 years to an Ecuadorian and traveñilgng for the past 20 years with tons of family in each section. Blancos es blancos
Amen to that. We appreciate you taking the time to check out our content! Please subscribe if you get a minute! Thank you!

Manta is the best choice !
Ahh! We still need to make it to Manta! We hear it is beautiful over urn!! Thank you for taking the time to check out our content! Please like and subscribe!🙏🏿❤️
Great video. No worries my friend, I'm an Ecuadorian living in Canada and when I visited Cuenca, the customer service at the museum was the same but the quality is awesome. I got one anyway. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for the love and support! We really wanted one too😩. One day I will get one! Thank you for taking the time to check out our content! Please like and subscribe when you get a minute! We are just getting started!
I was in Peru and I found the vendors there awful. It seems like they are tying their hardest not to make money.
Cuenca es bella y se la puede comparar con otras CIUDADES PROVINCIANAS, NUNCA CON UNA CAPITAL DE LA DIMENSIÓN UNIVERSAL DE QUITO.
😂😂😂…great commentary!
I need some of that green sauce!! 😋😋
She's (Enola) adorable!
Good job chef Enola. She's so cute❤
😂 Where are you off to this trip?
Hi guys I just found your channel. I am an Ecuadorian who lives in Spain born and raised in Quito I appreciate all the content you make about Ecuador and I hope you have an amazing time overall in my country.
Hey Esteban! Thank you for taking the time to check our our channel! We had such a great time in your country! It is one of the most beautiful places on earth! Please continue to check out our videos as it helps our channel grow! We still need to get to Spain FYI! What part of Spain are you in?
How can I make contact?
End of the video is freakin funny 😂 Him: She hot ain't she? Her: You think someone is gonna bring you those hot chicken wings you ordered? hahahaha 😂😂👍
😅😅😅thank you so much for checking out our content. I’m so glad you appreciate our humor! Please like and subscribe if you get a chance. We appreciate the love and wish you all the best!🙏🏿
Perfect timing that we came across your channel as we begin our planning and scouting trip later this year in Ecuador. Thanks for sharing your experience. Did you happen to spend any time in the coastal city of Manta?
Hey there! Thank you so much for taking the time to check out our content! You your family will def enjoy Ecuador! We did not make it to the coast. We have heard so many good things about the coast. They say the Encebollado is very good on the coast! Thanks again and make sure to stay in touch and let us know how your trip goes!
Why did you ask if Quito is safe for a white woman? Is she the only white woman living in Quito or what?
Because my wife is a White woman. Im sure there are plenty of other white women that live in Quito, but I don't know them to get their perspective. As a black man, my perspective on places we travel to can differ vastly from that of my wife's. Also I think it was good to hear the perspective of a woman/mother. Other than that I wouldn't think too much more into it lol. We appreciate you taking the time to check out our content. Please like and subscribe and stay tuned for more adventures!
Boo hoo.. Been to the U.S. lately? Just a Sunday afternoon in Chicago.
Hey David Thank you for takin the time to check out our content! You could have kept the "Boo Hoo" comment as I feel we did what any good parents would have done in that situation....but I totally understand your sentiments. My wife and I lived in Chicago for 4 years and we are very familiar with the violence that is prevalent in the US. I just want to make sure you understand, I feel the same as you. Which is why I took my two young children, and wife to the beautiful country of Ecuador. It was a shame we felt we had to leave so abruptly. As soon as we returned to the states, the Kansas City Parade shooting happened.....Unfortunately violence is prevalent all over the planet but we will continue to travel to experience all the beauty this world has to offer. Thank you again and we wish you the best! Please like and subscribe if you get a moment.
Sorry that happened while you were here. I would probably have reacted differently if i had toddlers. I am currently on the coast (manta) but never felt unsafe.
Hey Jamie, thanks for taking the time to check our content. Yes it was such a tough decision for us to make. We wanted to make sure we took the right precautions to keep the family safe. However We will be back…and maybe for good next time! Please like and subscribe if you get a moment. Thanks again and we wish you the best!
Crazy about the cleanliness! EC housecleaners are very diligent and crazy affordable! They obviously hired someone out of the norm!
Right this was such a surprise to us…
So weird! I watched a video in the same Airbnb last night!!!
Did you go to Paradise Park in Cuenca?
Hey. Don’t you read the reviews prior of booking?
Hey Troy! Yes of course we do. This place had a 9.5 rating…..a bunch of “non clean” folks must have stayed there before us😩😂. Thanks for taking the time to check out our content! Please like and subscribe if you get a moment. Thanks again!
Good job 🎉🎉
Thank you so much! Please like and subscribe when you get a moment! ☝🏿❤️🙏🏿
You guys are so helpful 💚
Glad we could help! Are you planning on visiting Ecuador soon? Please like and subscribe when you get a moment! Thank you much!🙏🏿
@@TheWrightDestination I thought I did!🤗 I'll look and make sure.👍 Our family is praying about a place to move out of the US. Top choice used to be the Azores, but it's just too cold there for us Floridians. I hate spiders, but Ecuador is looking good, otherwise.
Now that’s what I call “PRO Tools”💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
My Hitta My hitta! Thank you for the love!
6 hours from Mi to Quito? I have never had that quick
Yes it was a bit over 6 hours. It was the shortest travel time we could find. Ohare to Miami, Miami to Quito. It was great! Thanks for taking the time to check out our content! Please like and subscribe when you get a moment. One love!☝🏿❤️
Glad you guys are safe. We planned on moving there and was in Quito when this happened. Still moving forward. Gotta respect Ecuadorian police. They stormed the news station without hesitation. In the States, they would have held a perimeter and the officers personal safety would have been their first priority. This Ecuadorian response team stormed in call of duty style, not one hostage lost, and every bad guy taken into custody without incident. Being prior Marine and law enforcement, im telling ya thats impressive. We practiced these scenarios at the kill house. This was some Israeli swat level response. Crazy!
Wow I am glad you and yours were safe during all that! Yes we totally agree. We loved the way they responded. Quick and swift! We could see Ecuador being home for us too some day. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch our content. Please like and subscribe when you get a moment. ☝🏿❤️
Congratulations to Both of You, You Have A Beautiful Kids, They Are Adorable. Hope You Enjoyed Your New Country And Have Fun A Lot All Of You.
😂😂😂😂😂 comida de perros
That would be "chirimoya."
Just curious. Could y’all post your budget for both cities. We are a family of 5 trying to get a realistic estimate on what it would cost to live there.
I LOVE THE PONCHO MY BROTHER, JUST THE RIGHT COLORS FOR YOU!!! 😄
