    OK, eating ice cream anytime in the day is acceptable in Ecuador. Yeah that solidifies my plan to move there!!! haha
    Thank you for another wonderful video 🙂💖

      That was one of the culture shocks I experienced when I moved here.. Ice cream isn't reserved for warm or hot days. People eat ice cream when it's cold, when its late, when it's early. It's always the right time to eat ice cream. You'll fit right in hahahaha

    Thank you for making these beautiful relaxing videos, I can hardly wait to move back to Ecuador. I have missed being there. We were there 2014 -- 2017. Came back to States...my Mom needed me as a caregiver. We'll, time marches on and life is short. Stay well mi amiga 💖

    I love how your videos don't have a lot of talking. You provide just enough text to know what's going on. Though it was nice to hear a little of your beautiful accent in this video. Keep up the good work!

      The jar came with the apartment I'm renting. But they're easy to find here... However, I haven't seen as many canning jars like mason jars here

    I like the way you eat. Good job! I am also in Cuenca, 9 years now. You can go to other cities but you be always coming here because beside the cold at night and in the morning, this is really the best place in Ecuador. And I enjoy watching your videos !

    I am going to have to try to make fufu.. how did you make the soup!!?? If you did cooking videos making African inspired meals from foods in Ecuador It would be amazing ❤ maybe I'm partial since we have the same foods.. and I have no idea how to cook.. great vid!

      Sara, i'm going to plan to make the chicken soup just for you. I'm sure you'll be able to find the ingredients and make it Colombia. You're right I think I'll incorporate more recipes in the videos because we cook and eat a lot 😂

    u know if they censor media in Ecuador?

    • @TheXplorasDiary
      @TheXplorasDiary  9 месяцев назад

      Well, not that I know of.
      I spent sometime in China some years back, and I can say the if there's censorship here, it's nothing like I experienced in China, at least when it comes to the internet/accessing websites.
      I can access all the websites I need to use daily here, problem free. Although ,I use a VPN for some of the sites I use.
      If you're asking about local media censorship, I don't know much about the media here because I watch all my shows/access the media I need online.
      Hope this helps.

      @TheXplorasDiary  7 месяцев назад

      Because I prefer this style of editing, with minimal to no talking. I want the music and visuals to create a relaxing feeling for the viewers. I like to watch vlogs to relax, and wanted to create the types of vlogs I enjoy watching.
