Hi there. I am Salvadoreña living in the USA. I welcome you and your dear family to this beautiful country and thank you for showing what it is like to live in El Salvador now. People of goodwill are always welcome to El Salvador. May God bless you all.
@@KimbiMurcia-bg1tv No sé por qué dijiste que nos fuimos de El Salvador porque no nos gustaba. ¿Es un error de traducción? Visitamos El Salvador en julio de 2023 para ver si nos gustaría mudarnos con nuestra familia aquí. Nos gustó tanto que decidimos mudarnos con toda nuestra familia de Canadá a El Salvador. Nos tomó 13 meses tener todo listo para regresar.
I think this person, Kim, was trying to send that message to Javier Martinez and John Gámez. It’s still an ignorant comment since people from El Salvador were literally saving their lives by leaving due to the gangs and prior to that because of the war.
I'm so happy you have chosed el Salvador to live,I want to bring my children next year and see how they like it,I might move to live in el salvador too
Hay no otro estorbo son ignorantes ustedes piensan que el presidente estará toda la vida gobernando ya después que ya no sea presidente todo cambiará ignorantes quédense ahí no vengan a estorbar.
Just saw your video. I am originally from El Salvador but have lived in Canada for over 30 years. Currently looking to go back to El Salvador to live permanently. Glad you are enjoying the many things El Salvador has to offer. God Bless you!
Welcome feel free and enjoy our beautiful country , thanks for choosing our homeland to be your new home . May Our Lord always shine his grace on you .
I loved the video, and hearing about your experience here in El Salvador. You are very nice, and that is the general impression I have about Canadians, mostly very nice people. Blessings to you all.
I enjoyed this video so much!! I was born in El Salvador and my wife is Canadian. We are working on making the move. These types of videos are very helpful. I just subscribe to your channel. I'm looking forward to more videos
I am glad you guys (family) have taken the decision to move to our country 🇸🇻😎🫡 you are Welcome 🤗 God bless you and be nerviosoes normal when we trying to learn a new language same happens to me but i am getting better with practice even having 10 years abroad 😅👍
Bendiciones chelita eres muy agradable y tienes una personalidad excepcional . You enriched our saldadorean diversity and give us hope for a better tomorrow !
Hello, I am Salvadoran by birth and I have lived in the United States for several decades. The truth is that El Salvador has made very important steps in health, education and of course in security and we hope it will do so in the economy this year. So it is a totally new and very pleasant country, hospitable and very friendly to foreigners. I congratulate you and I hope you enjoy the best that the country has to offer. There is a lot to see. Greetings.
Hola Charity, me emociona que mi pais sea una opcion para mudarze, donde la seguridad es paz y tranquilidad, la familia y el amor a Dios prevalece en nuestra sociedad. Mi querido presidente Bukele pone a Dios primero, siempre que habla y no dudo que consulte con el sus desiciones. Que este bien y disfruten del pulgarcito de America. 🤗🤗🤗🤗 desde California ❤
I'm salvadoran born citizen and let me tell you that I'm extremely jealous of you guys, here I am working like a donkey in the US and just dreaming of my return to my homeland.
Hi Charity, I'm from El Salvador, and I love your honesty when you talk about the situation in the country, thank you for making El Salvador your home now. MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
Hola, I am Salvadoran and became Canadian citizen in 1987, learned French, then American in 1993 and now retiring to El Salvador next year. I totally understand what you are going through, and I feel so happy you have chosen El Salvador to live. Your video really helps me since I haven't lived in El Salv. most of my life. Just keep practicing your Spanish and you'll be speaking fluidly in not time. Good luck to you and all the family!!
Welcome to el Salvador. I'm from there; but I have lived outside of my country for more than 40 years. Until now I see how beautiful the country is and how much better is now to live over there. I'm planing to retired and go back home. May I suggest . The wifi you can use it to connect the wass up. When your home in that way you save you data. That is what I normally do when I go to visit. Now electricity is a t litle too expensive. It shouldn't be no more than 100. Using your a/c mostly at nights. You need to find out where is the office of the electricity company and go and complain. That's how it's. Lots of time there is an error. They need to fix and give you the credit. And always keep the name of the person you talk to. To follow up. It has happened to me when my mother was living and she used her window unit a/c. We did not mind to pay for it . But never was more then 70 or 80
Hola, 🤗👋🤗 I really loved the video. It makes me proud to know that you and your loved ones are embracing our culture in a very positive way. I think you are now living near my parents' house... when they call me, they always say that the traffic and hot weather are things they still can't get used to 😅, but apart from that, they are happy to be back in our wonderful country. God bless you all, and thank you for this amazing video. 🕊🙏🕊
I had to close the door the last two nights and I am wrapped in a fleece blanket now and my nose is freezing, it isn't always hot here and we don't have AC. LOL
Great you guys moved to El Salvador. We feel so nostalgic when we see other people moving there or going back to our homeland. Enjoy the good things going on there. Hope you and your family find what you were looking for and make it your new home. God bless you.
I wish you the best for all of you in el salvador I was born there but in been living most of my life in usa ,maybe I'll retire some day in my home land country .....
Wow I love your video, we also moved from Canada to El Salvador 8 months ago with our two teenagers and funny because we also moved to Lourdes in the same residential area you are in. We moved out of there back in October to the City but my boys loved that area. That Maxi Despensa was my number 1 place to do my groceries 😂.
I M SALVADORIAN I LIVING IN NEW JERSEY BUT ONE DAY I GOING BACK TO LIVING & PUT BUSINESS IN EL SALVADOR CHRISTMAS 🎄 IS VERY NICE HERE USA SOME TIME YOU ARE WORKING & CHRISTMAS 🎄
That's really nice that you and the family are embracing your life in ES and adapting to a new culture. What a positive attitude! I hit the like button 😉
I lived in Vancouver British Columbia in the corners of Hastings and Franklin Street very close to Vancouver downtown I always taked sky train to Frasier River going to white rock.
Wow !! Sister in Christ that is sooo cool that you and your family are enjoying living in my motherland !! Salvadoreans are Always welcoming beautiful families and you are one of them !! May the Lord bless you and your Family !! Enjoy all the tropical fruits that El Salvador has to offer !!! New in your Chanel 🎉 Greetings from Mexico
Hello my name is Art just wanted to welcome you to El Salvador it's a wonderful country. I lived in the States for over 35 years but about 6 years ago I moved back and it been the best decision of my life. Well welcome and have a wonderful day
really enjoyed your video, first time watching you here, one more reason why am i still here. is a blessing to have people like you whom firstly knows the bible, means your peaceful people and thats the kind of ones we need back there in sivar. i've noticed that a lot of people from canada are packing their stuff and going either to mexico or el salvador, lately more to el salvador. GOD bless you and hope to see you soon back there. from montreal.
The key is to assimilate here, not to be an expat in El Salvador. I think Mexico has many communities that are just expats and they don't try to become Mexican. Here we are with locals. There are literally only two english speaking couples in this complex.
@hagenaarsfamily you should start giving English classes, you know the English they teach back there is just like.. level 1 right? So there, you have a door to make some many, so take care.
Subscribed! I really love you and your family are enjoying my country, and i share it with you, i live in the states since 1995 and one day i will be back, i love watching people like you making a living there because different cultures makes a better future. God bless you and your family.
Welcome to the new El Salvador 🇸🇻,, little bit of advice,, go to local markets,, you’ll find more cheaper fresh fruit, vegetables, meats and alk other basic meals that your family needs. El mercadito en Merliot , mercado central en san salvador, around centro histórico, La Tiendona. Super big market by Reloj de Flores and nowadays the government has open markets all over the mayor important cities en San Salvador. You will get to know all this places while living in such amazing country 🇸🇻
Welcome to El Salvador. Changes can be difficult, when you are a newcomer but, I think you are doing pretty good. I know first hand since I lived in the US 5 and a half years. Take care.
Hi, I love your videos, thank you so much for sharing your experience in El Salvador. My spouse wants to move there but I’m uncertain. Your videos are great and informative. Thank you
no problem, you can email us and ask us any questions and we can exchange phone numbers and even chat on the phone if you like. Our email is youtube@hagenaars.com
Im 53 years old, and as soon inget 65 im going back! Started to built my house in El Zonte beach when I finish it and it is ready to visite and spend the day Iwill invite you and your family.
Yes we have to get up early one day and take an Uber over there. I guess if we find a farmer that we like the produce of, maybe we can get deliveries. I actually want to find one to get raw milk from. Any suggestions?
God bless you more in your new home. Truly l believe Bukely is a an answer to many prayers from salvadorians , who deserve the very best from all the sufferings they have suffered from many injustices from past corrupted governments.
There are many private schools around but they are expensive. They range from $140-$250 per child per month. They may be cheaper ones but I stopped looking as it would almost be the same as our rent. So we Homeschool here using are own Bible study program, a variety of Spanish RUclips videos and Khan Academy for English, Math, Science, History (for my boys) and reading for my daughter.
Welcome to el salvador, you will enjoy everywhere you go the beach you can go 365 days the water is warm, i use to go in new year still warm. Blessing to you and your family.
I just got this month's electricity bill it was just under $80 for this past month. So that will be our new norm. We have found it fine here without AC. I am actually cold tonight and I shut the front door earlier than usual and I put pants and long sleeve top on and covered myself with a blanket. So there is that.
I left El salvador almost 8 years ago, but I used to pay for my own house (mortgage) almost $600/month and I'm talking about very medium house compare with the average in San Salvador, but in your case a Rent of $600/ month I think is very expensive I bet you can get something cheaper in San salvador, maybe if you look around you will get it
There is a guy that brings it with a cart and a bicycle. He is the one that delivers it. We don't want to have to walk with them again, they are heavy ad my husband walks with a cane. We went through that in Zarqgoza.
Hola amiga me llamo la atención tu vídeo felicitaciones en escoger mi pulgarcito yo tengo 35 años viviendo en Canada y pienso regresar a El Salvador cross my finger my wish can come true❤ enjoy your new life.
Welcome to El Salvador ❤ now in El Salvador is peace free down to live there for the children , it's the safe country and too much fun more adventure for all those kids. ❤ In the 80' it was the begging of those bad days 😔. But now is beautiful ❤ everything days the Sun 🌞 is coming out for All of us ❤🙏 Thank to God and the new Government.
Super helpful! El Salvador is my husband’s home country and moving there would be our family’s plan B if we are not able to remain in the US. May I ask if you’re homeschooling your children and if that’s permitted in El Salvador? As a mom of a 3 year old and 8 month old, I am concerned about the quality of public education in El Salvador versus the US. Also, do you mind me asking if you plan to work in El Salvador? Are there work opportunities for those of us who don’t speak proficient Spanish? :) Thanks and best of luck in your new journey! The Salvadoran people truly are some of the best.
Yes Homeschooling is legal in ES. People tell me that the public system here isn't good but I don't know. I know the public schools in Canada and US are very woke and force their political agenda in the schools and they DO NOT do that here, so already that is 100% better in my opinion. We are going to open up two businesses. We are waiting for our motel to sell in Canada and then we are going to buy a Hotel here. We are also working with 2 local couples and we are forming another company. More to come on that one. I think your best bet is to start a company, that way you can use it for your temporary residency as well. You can do anything, even teaching english. Everyone one here is so nice. Even today we went to an ice cream shop on the way to get groceries and a man heard me speaking English to my husband and he started up a conversation with me. He lived in Texas fro 20 years but his English wasn't that good and my Spanish isn't that good but we had a good chat with lots of hand gestures and one translation with our app. He was really interested in us and why we moved here. He was so nice.
Vi to vídeo y poder entender tú historia como lo relatas para mi es muy dócil y ni porque llevo viviendo en tú país 16 no he aprendido tú idioma el cual tú aprenderás el mio tal vez en dos años, y así seguiré viendo tus vídeos cuando lo relates en mi idioma, y Al fina dime Te gusta vivir en mi país?
I am getting my own plan together to make a move and plans for a scouting trip at the end of February with no set time limit other than coming on a tourist visa and looking to get residency as a digital nomad or applying for one of the plans Bukele has announced for citizenship. I'd really like to know more about the shipping container you mention. Also you said your current house does not have AC but you all have electronics. How are you keeping your laptop s and computers cool? So far I have been thinking I will need AC if not for me I'd need it for my electronics. Thank you for making the video! I am looking forward to more.
It is not so hot here that electronics are over heating. We have these tower fans running in the main room but that is all. I still don’t know a out Bukele’s 5000 visa plan. Residency applications are $140. USD. You need apostilled criminal background checks for the adults. And apostilled birth certificates for kids. I will do a whole video or 3 on the shipping container. It is a process not for the faint at heart.
Hopefully when you install the AC your bill won’t go up that much . I do believe the government is trying to fix that , I know your mentioned in your video 😊, welcome 🤗
I don't think we'll be installing AC. I like having the windows and doors open all the time and with AC you have to keep everything shut tight. Our house has a huge covered outdoor space and we leave the door open 24/7 to that space. That is one perk for living here. And there are no mosquitos.
@@hagenaarsfamily oh wow , NO mosquitoes 🦟 , I’m surprised 😮 , well even better for the electric bill and I’m glad than you guys are adapting pretty well ☺️, I love your videos and God bless you and your family 🙏🏼

Hi, yes electricity is very expensive in El Salvado if you use aircon heavily. When we visited it was an issue for us.
I just got this month's electricity bill it was just under $80 for this past month. So that will be our new norm. We have found it fine here without AC. I am actually cold tonight and I shut the front door earlier than usual and I put pants and long sleeve top on and covered myself with a blanket. So there is that.
I left El salvador almost 8 years ago, but I used to pay for my own house (mortgage) almost $600/month and I'm talking about very medium house compare with the average in San Salvador, but in your case a Rent of $600/ month I think is very expensive I bet you can get something cheaper in San salvador, maybe if you look around you will get it
We don't want to live in the city though, we are more country folks so even on Lourdes it is pretty busy for us here.
Buy water bottles directly from the truck and it will be much cheaper. Ask your neighbors what day the water truck comes by.
There is a guy that brings it with a cart and a bicycle. He is the one that delivers it. We don't want to have to walk with them again, they are heavy ad my husband walks with a cane. We went through that in Zarqgoza.

Super helpful! El Salvador is my husband’s home country and moving there would be our family’s plan B if we are not able to remain in the US.
May I ask if you’re homeschooling your children and if that’s permitted in El Salvador? As a mom of a 3 year old and 8 month old, I am concerned about the quality of public education in El Salvador versus the US.
Also, do you mind me asking if you plan to work in El Salvador? Are there work opportunities for those of us who don’t speak proficient Spanish? :)
Thanks and best of luck in your new journey! The Salvadoran people truly are some of the best.
Yes Homeschooling is legal in ES. People tell me that the public system here isn't good but I don't know. I know the public schools in Canada and US are very woke and force their political agenda in the schools and they DO NOT do that here, so already that is 100% better in my opinion. We are going to open up two businesses. We are waiting for our motel to sell in Canada and then we are going to buy a Hotel here. We are also working with 2 local couples and we are forming another company. More to come on that one. I think your best bet is to start a company, that way you can use it for your temporary residency as well. You can do anything, even teaching english. Everyone one here is so nice. Even today we went to an ice cream shop on the way to get groceries and a man heard me speaking English to my husband and he started up a conversation with me. He lived in Texas fro 20 years but his English wasn't that good and my Spanish isn't that good but we had a good chat with lots of hand gestures and one translation with our app. He was really interested in us and why we moved here. He was so nice.
Vi to vídeo y poder entender tú historia como lo relatas para mi es muy dócil y ni porque llevo viviendo en tú país 16 no he aprendido tú idioma el cual tú aprenderás el mio tal vez en dos años, y así seguiré viendo tus vídeos cuando lo relates en mi idioma, y Al fina dime Te gusta vivir en mi país?
Me encanta viviendo en tu pais.
Great video! Great information.
Glad it was helpful!

welcome to el salvador
In el salvador we love jews and Christians People...
I am getting my own plan together to make a move and plans for a scouting trip at the end of February with no set time limit other than coming on a tourist visa and looking to get residency as a digital nomad or applying for one of the plans Bukele has announced for citizenship. I'd really like to know more about the shipping container you mention. Also you said your current house does not have AC but you all have electronics. How are you keeping your laptop s and computers cool? So far I have been thinking I will need AC if not for me I'd need it for my electronics. Thank you for making the video! I am looking forward to more.
It is not so hot here that electronics are over heating. We have these tower fans running in the main room but that is all. I still don’t know a out Bukele’s 5000 visa plan. Residency applications are $140. USD. You need apostilled criminal background checks for the adults. And apostilled birth certificates for kids. I will do a whole video or 3 on the shipping container. It is a process not for the faint at heart.
@@hagenaarsfamily Thank you for the reply! I have so many questions. I will be looking forward to more videos. Thank you!
For fruit and vegetables go to agro mercados they very cheap prices
we have to get up early and get the Uber out there, that is all that is stopping us LOL!
❤️❤️❤️
Hopefully when you install the AC your bill won’t go up that much . I do believe the government is trying to fix that , I know your mentioned in your video 😊, welcome 🤗
I don't think we'll be installing AC. I like having the windows and doors open all the time and with AC you have to keep everything shut tight. Our house has a huge covered outdoor space and we leave the door open 24/7 to that space. That is one perk for living here. And there are no mosquitos.
@@hagenaarsfamily oh wow , NO mosquitoes 🦟 , I’m surprised 😮 , well even better for the electric bill and I’m glad than you guys are adapting pretty well ☺️, I love your videos and God bless you and your family 🙏🏼
I rather live in Lourdes too , bills are pretty high in other places.
👍👍
