 My opinion for aspiring expats...
by: Anonymous

Hola! I am just about to leave Cuenca Ecuador. This is a post of my own personal opinion on Cuenca. Many love it here...I am not one of those!

I came to Cuenca to find an escape of the rat race in america, to find a more modest, honest, and humble culture to raise my children in.

There are so many nice things about cuenca. Most people are friendly and I feel safe here. EXCEPT when I try to cross the street with my little kids in tow..then I do NOT feel safe, and I do not feel like the people here are friendly anymore! Its like they have a personality transplant and turn really evil when they get behind the wheel!Its life or death to cross the street! LOL!! But its seriously bad enough for me NOT to want to stay. But that is only strike ONE.

Also things here are NOT that cheap. Yes, many things are LOW QUALITY. Try to buy clothes and shoes!! Very difficult.

So many people are out to rip gringos off. Its uncomfortable! Taxi drivers will charge you $5 for a $1 ride or MORE. If you tell them NO and offer less, they get angry. The traditional women on the corners selling fruits will rip you off with no guilt. Real estate agents (whether american or bilingual ecuadorians) are here to rip you off. They will try to get you in a house for double or TRIPLE the monthly fee for an ecuadorian, so they can profit off of it.

It is difficult to get internet access at your house unless you are a citizen. The internet is really very very slow. It cuts off every few minutes, depending on the clouds!

The SMOKE from the cars and buses is CRAZY! There are dead cows in the rivers upstream. Food is hard to buy here if you are a "picky" eater. Like me...I eat organic and do not eat pork. VERY hard to find that stuff here.

The women dress like hookers, sorry to say! From toddlers to women in their 50's, they all wear TIGHT painted on clothes! Like they are always trying to catch a man! And they make out everywhere. Teenagers make out in front of anyone and everyone. THere is not much modesty here!

BUT..it IS pretty, well the mountains and rivers are pretty. But the city of Cuenca is NOT very pretty. The houses are AWESOMLY made...so beautiful with quality wood and stones. BUT it reminds me of MANSIONS in the GHETTO. Graffti everywhere...delapataded buildings everywhere...etc..etc... BUT it is a nice experience...just not to LIVE for me and my family.

 Air quality
by: Terri

Am visiting Cuenca right now and am disappointed that in the books and Internet sites I read prior to the trip, no one mentioned the awful air quality in Cuenca. The busses belch out black smoke and I doubt the cars have any emission control devices. Thank goodness for the EPA in the states. I'm suffering from a sore throat and was in bed for a couple of days. I have a lingering cough and now wear a mask to keep from breathing in the pollution. Would not return to Cuenca.

 In response to the critics
by: Joseph

I have gotten a lot of feedback from my comment about immigration lawyers in Cuenca. To set the record, straight not every single lawyer in Cuenca is bad. But your chances of finding one that will give you your money's worth is like flipping a coin. So, you can get offended and talk about generalizations and so on, but the bottom line is when it comes to getting things done right, by people who know what they are doing, you have a better chance by contacting me than by taking a chance with a lawyer in Cuenca. I get contacted almost every week by someone who is asking for my help because their lawyer in Cuenca isn't getting the job done. I'm sorry that the truth hurts, that's life.

 Dog hit by car needs home
by: Kelly

I recently found a dog next to my house by the highway that was hit by a car. He was really badly wounded (split open eyelid, broken leg, etc.), and he needs a home. I brought him to the foundation ARCA and he is slowing recovering there. Next week they will operate on his leg. He is small-medium sized, all white and really friendly. Even when he was in a lot of pain and i was trying to pick him up he didn't try to bite me. I would take him myself but I already have dogs and don't have enough space. I really want to find a home for him so he can have a good life. The doctors weren't sure exactly how old he is but they said he's probably 3 or 4. I don't have a picture of him right now but could get one if anyone is interested. Please contact me if you want more information about the dog. kellyfxsports@yahoo.com

 To Joseph S.
by: Anonymous

Your words: "Don't go to ANY of the lawyers in Cuenca cause they will over charge you and frankly they don't really know what they are doing." Do you honestly know EVERY attorney in Cuenca and have first hand experience they ALL overcharge and are incompetent? Impossible. I agree with Maite. You should be ashamed of posting such insulting generalizations. There may be SOME lawyers in Cuenca who aren't good at Visas and overcharge, but your blanket statement they all do it, is ridiculous. I find your comments suspicious since you are trying to drum up business for your "friend". Try to get business for him by talking about how good he is and that his prices are reasonable without putting down every single lawyer in Cuenca! That's how ethical PROFESSIONALS market their services.

• identify the element that is more lively in your nature,
• determine the areas of disharmony in your lifestyle,
• develop a program of care to help re-establish harmony, and
• support you on your journey to wholeness and optimal health.

The AYURVEDIC HEALTH AND WELLNESS CONSULTATION program was developed by DEEPAK CHOPRA, M.D. and DAVID SIMON, M.D., co-founders of THE CHOPRA CENTER FOR WELLBEING.

 Cilantro Restaurant in Cuenca - Not so Great
by: Anonymous

We enjoyed the $2.25 special the first time we went to Cilantro and it was great. The second time we went we splurged and spent $26. The food was awful. They lady who normally runs the place wasn't there. The guys left in charge may have had great intentions but were mostly incompentent. They don't get a second chance with so many restaurants in Cuenca.

We've been going to Grecia on Gran Columbia regularly and they have been excellent every time.

 Hello everyone
by: Felipe Ochoa

Hello everyone my name is Felipe Ochoa born in cuenca but raised in New Jersey, just moved back to Cuenca about a year ago and opened a coffee shop called OPORTO its located half a block away from the stadium. We have lots of american and european treats as well as bread and cakes for any ocation, everything fresh and with the quality that could only be expected from a portuguese chef that had worked many years with chef Thomas Keller at one of his most prestigious pastry shops in manhatan.
We are in plans of having gringo nights in which we would like to provide all of you with tango nights or maybe salsa nights different activities that im sure we will all enjoy.

Also if you need help bringing your home goods please do not hesitate on asking me any questions im also registered as an importer because i did not want to get ripped of by people that over charge for the simple fact of being a foreigner, so if you need any help please stop by the shop and i will give you a hand no charge

the adreess for the coffee shop is

I have researched many forums and the bottom line is that it's too expensive to ship my household goods. However, I can't imagine arriving with 2 suitcases and giving up everything I own. The airline I'll be flying charges $200 per bag in excess of 2, so 7 boxes will cost $1,400. Do you think this is the best way to ship? I have gotten quotes from shipping companies that are all more than I can afford. What was your experience and how much did you ship? I have things I cannot let go of like my daughter's childhood keepsakes (she can't take them because she's in college in a dorm) and mementos I inherited when my parents passed away. Your advice is appreciated as this is the only issue I'm struggling with.

 Need a SUV to replace the one we have...
by: Bob & Roxanne

Howdy Folks...Roxanne and I have seen our poor SUV slowly disintegrate here at the Coast. We need to replace it.
If you are thinking of moving on and selling your SUV, we would love to hear from you. We don't want to buy here at the Coast, because we just don't know how the insidious salt air has affected any car that is for sale here.
We will be visiting Cuenca later in September.
Please drop us a line at bobnrox@gmail.com if you are interested. Thanks mucho...

 Grand Opening Libary
by: Project "Café de Lenguas & Cultura"

Dear friends,
I would like to invite everyone to the Grand Opening of Clara Luna's library in Puerto Lopez! The library is Clara Luna's most recent (and highly anticipated) project. We envision having a place where reading can be a fun and exciting activity instead of an activity just for school. The library still needs more books before it can be fully functional, and everyone in Puerto Lopez would really appreciate any and all donations. We are especially interested in children's books (in English and Spanish), limericks for children, novels for adults (in English and Spanish), reference books, and any other books you think we would enjoy reading. The Grand Opening will be held on August 31 at 6:30pm. We hope to see you here with a book!
We are also in the process of planning a Garage Sale to raise funds for the others projects we have going at Clara Luna. These projects include a reading center for children, a "language exchange cafe" where local people from Puerto Lopez can practice their English with tourists and tourists can practice their Spanish with locals, and a cultural center with classic Latin American films.
Thank you in advance for your generosity, and we look forward to meeting anyone who can make it to the Grand Opening.

 Visa
by: Anonymous

I agree with Maite. I used a local lawyer here in Cuenca, great results. Four weeks total for my visa, cedula & censo. Charged much less than the lawyers in Quito with better results. I would like to hear from anyone receiving everything from start to finish in less than four weeks. You don't have to go to Quito if you have the right lawyer.

 DEAR FRIENDS
by: Maite

RESPONSE REGARDING VISA RESIDENCY BY: JOSEPH S.
As a Cuencana I am offended, I know there are many good attorneys in Cuenca, and some that are not. Your comments are not polite and are not welcomed here.
In Cuenca we do not gossip about people, how dare you come to our country to talk bad about our professionals? In the U.S.A. it is very expensive what a lawyer charges by the minute?why don?t you appreciate our HOSPITALITY?
The attorney?s in Ecuador are inexpensive comparing to what the attorneys charge in the U.S.A. per minute.
God forbid that more people with your attitude come to Ecuador.
If you want to do business you are more than welcomed, but if you want to gossip about other people go back to your country.
I love America, I love the United States, and I love my country.

by: Anonymous

I wanted to share the experience I had at Compufacil. I bought a printer that did not work. I went to return it and they would not give me my money or a new printer. They kept the printer for over a week. I made four visits to the store to see what the situation was and each time they had an excuse. Now they let me know they fixed it and I could pick it up. I don't want a repaired printer. I paid for a new one. When I checked into the store they are middle men and sell older models. Mine was a 2005 model. BEWARE FRIENDS OF THIS STORE

 La Biblioteca Interactiva Garage Sale
by: Jody Broyles

Hi everybody,

I wanted to let you know that our next Garage Sale will be held March 12th here in Baños de Agua Santa. We have these sales quarterly in order to buy more books for our free children's library.

We will sell anything and everything, but are particularly interested in children's clothes, shoes and toys, since our main emphasis is kids.

The past garage sales have shown us that these sales not only benefit the library and after school program, but the community of Baños loves them, too. This is a fairly new concept here and it really helps people, particularly with used adults and children's clothes, which are very expensive in Ecuador but we sell them cheap ($1 or 50 cents). It is a wonderful community service for all!

Chuck and Nancy Watson have kindly offered to be a depot for donations in the Cuenca area. You can reach Chuck at "Charles Watson" chuckwatson@ymail.com to make arrangements to drop things off. They can accept donations now and can collect stuff until Wednesday, Feb 9th, then Jill Sare from La Bib will bring the donations to Baños. Please contact Chuck & Nancy for directions and appointment times.

Our good friend Jill can also advise any of you in Quito who would like to donate to the sale. You can contact her here: "Jill Sare" jillsare@gmail.com

Thanks in advance for your generosity toward our programs and the children here at LA BIB.

 It pays to pay for a good relocation service!
by: Will Harper

I recently relocated to Cuenca Ecuador, from Guadalajara Mx. I decided to use a relocation service, because of all of the pitfalls. I picked Relocation Services of Ecuador (www.RelocatinServicesOfEcuador.com). I'm very glad I did! They advised me on what to bring, and how; helped me to get a bank account, within a week of arriving; helped me get a cell phone; referred me to a great, English-speaking lawyer to close on a school that I was buying, set up my corporation, and obtain my permanent retirement visa. Even now, when I run into a situation at the phone company or elsewhere, where I am stuck without sufficient Spanish skills, a quick phone call to their wonderful bi-lingual receptionist, a few words on the phone, and everything is fixed.

 Cuenca in August 09
by: JohnP

Hello everyone,

I have been in the Gringo Tree mailing list for several months, and now the time is approaching when I actually get to visit Ecuador and experience the charm of Cuenca.

I definitely want to attend the Friday night gathering and want to meet many new friends while I'm there. Not sure yet where I'll be staying or how I'm going to get there from Quito safely (if by bus). Anyway, please say hi if you feel like assisting a gringo get acclimated, as I do not know much Spanish yet, which I'll be studying in your beautiful city.

Thank you. BTW, I'm from U.S. (Idaho) and traveling solo.
