You have lived in El Salvador for 14 years and still call yourself an expat? C'mon you are now part of "La Creme de La Creme"🤣we're very proud and happy to have you here and be part of this small but very welcoming land.
She has to renounce her US citizenship to stop being an expat. I heard the US is denying people from dropping their US citizenship. And if they approve it, it's expensive.
This is the coolest video I have seen about you explaning and expressing love and feelings about our country. The way you explain every sigle detail... is amazing. Thanks.
@@ThatExpatMom For sure what you do is great, no doubts! I only have seen some of your videos (to be honest), and each one is great! For example, your jumping on the waterfall was brave 😜 Greetings!
@Chavy2596 the waterfall jump is something I will never forget 💙 a very special memory with my amazing aunt... She makes be brave 😁 thank you for coming along and sharing the journey with us whether it's one video or all I'm so grateful to have you here!
@@ThatExpatMom My pleasure. I apologize for the grammar errors, I think that’s because I type quickly and forget to check the text before send it 😬 I have to be careful with that the next. Hope you and your family have a great rest of the week. I appreciate the time you take to response to the comments. See you in your next RUclips video!
I love the way you are now pronouncing El Salvador..With a very localish rrrr at the end HAHAHAHA not gringo ( no offense ) style accent any more! Love it! Thanks for promoting our ( including you ) great new country !
Thank you! Lunas been helping me with my pronunciation 😁 I hadn't realised that you need to say El Salvador in Spanish in order to pronounce it correctly so that has helped a lot. It sounds like a no brainer but you don't pronounce estados unidos in an US accent... Though maybe people should it would be funny 😂 and no offense taken I am one very happy Gringa in El Salvador 💙🇸🇻
I love your charisma. Keep up the good work. Thanks for the great tips. I'm originally from San Miguel but live abroad. I'm going to El Salvador next year for my vacation
Thank you so much Garcia! I am so happy you get to come back for vacation next year! I hope you have the most amazing time! Many blessings to you and your family 😁💙
You are so amazing person! I love watching your videos with your family and also how much you love them and mi lindo El Salvador 🇸🇻 Please keep up the great work. Now you are an official Guanaca!
Wow, muchas gracias Victor! Tengo tantas cosas lindas que decir sobre El Salvador. 💙🇸🇻 Estoy muy agradecida por mi familia y por llamar a este país mi hogar
So glad I found your channel!!! My husband is from El Salvador and we’re actually considering retiring to his homeland. Your video content is very helpful thank you
@@ThatExpatMom His family is from Usulutan and I will begin exploring that beautiful country next summer. I want to get my kids used to the traveling until its time to permanently stay. Thank you for your informative videos I am taking notes lol
Thank you so much Amir! 😁 I'm so gait you liked it I tried really hard to include as much important info as possible in parts one and two and include them both on the pdf 😁💙🇸🇻
Awesome video and info. The one thing I learned years ago about renting a vehicle in ES is to either get a recommended renta-a-car from the hotel or wherever you are staying as opposed to going on line for familiar companies. I had a bad experience with one of the large companies. I ended up returning the car the next business day. I shared my story with the hotel staff and they told me to ask them next time because they have relationships with local rent-a cars. Lesson learned.
I'm so sorry you had a bad experience renting a car. Did you go with one of the major chains? What was the issue with the car? Many of the hotels will have relationships with rental agencies and that is solid advice thank you. 😁 💙
@@ThatExpatMom thanks. It was the first time I was taking my American wife, son and sister in law. I wanted everything to be perfect. I booked car in advance to pick up at the airport from Hertz . When arrived, no car. They told us it was down the road. They drove us and when we got there, it took them an hour and a half to process the paperwork to tell us that the car we requested was in San Salvador. They drove us again to tell us that they had to clean it. Finally got it with no gas. Drove to get gas and the car wouldn’t start after we filled it. I called the company and they send someone to the gas station, swapped out the battery and left without saying anything. I drove away and the car had no horn. Got to the hotel, used credit card and they told us that there was q problem. Called the bank and they say that Hertz put a hold for 10k instead of 1k on my card. The hotel to me, next time call us, we’ll take care of you. Gave the car back on Monday with a full tank 😢
@coolbrothergee5401 no way! That is outrageous! I am so sorry that happened to you and your family! I hope you were reimbursed and then some for all of your troubles!
Highly recommend LA UNICA pupuseria sooo good pupusas!!! Check times cause they open late close early.. AND TRY HORCHATA at pollo campero SOOOOOO GOOODDD! and Pizza Hut McDonald's Papa John they taste way better!!! Pizza from pollo campero was good lol
Creo que lo único que le falto a este vidio es que cuando llegas al aeropuerto también puedes venirte en trasporte público ya que esta cerca para abordarlo ó alquila un vehículo.
Thank you so much Jose! I'm really glad you liked it! I tried to fit in as much information as possible in both parts 1 and 2 and included them both on the free pdf 😁💙🇸🇻
Thank you so much!! 🤗 I was really happy with how it turned out it was my new trick I taught myself this video... I try to teach myself a new one with each video since I edit all my videos 😁 💙🇸🇻
Thank you so much Jose! I really tried to include everything people should know to have an amazing vacation and be great guests in El Salvador 😁💙🇸🇻 did you download the pdf?
That's good to know about American Airlines, it isn't an El Salvador policy at all and sometimes it depends who you get at the check in counter, but many airlines require it. It also depends if you have dual citizenship already. 💙
In August, an American friend and I will be visiting El Salvador. She wants to experience surfing and, of course, swim in the ocean. So, I was wondering if you know of a restaurant or a place at the beach where we can go just for the day.
Oh that is a great question! That depends on a few things... Are you experienced surfers or will you need lessons? Will you be bringing your own boards or need to rent them here?
There actually are! I looked up a bunch when my aunt was coming (she went plant based after her cancer diagnosis) most are in the San Benito and El Tunco Areas. If you do a quick Google search "vegetarian El Salvador" many will come up as well as with www.happycow.net/north_america/el_salvador/san_salvador/
Thank you!! I am so sorry, you are right, there really is no comparison. Budweiser is more like beer flavored water... Pilsener is delicious 🍻 I was trying to give people an idea of stateside comparisons but it really stands alone 💙🇸🇻
Ugh I have a childhood trauma with those geckos 😭 Anyway, I’ll be visiting next November to attend a heavy metal concert 🎉🎉 Is it difficult to find a taxi or an Uber late at night? I’m debating on renting a car or not. Pura vida from Costa Rica
Oh no! You and my aunt both 😂 she was not a fan of the geckos. You can easily get an Uber or taxi at anytime or won't be an issue 💙 I hope you have an amazing trip!
