Amelia And JP

About Amelia And JP

We’re Amelia And JP. We sold everything we owned, converted our jobs to virtual, went vegan & plant-based, moved to Cuenca Ecuador with our two dogs, and launched a YouTube Channel to document this crazy adventure.

Now we’re living on the coast of Ecuador in Olón, a small beach town just north of the popular party town of Montañita. And we have a new drone to show you the amazing scenery from the sky!

Each week, we post new videos about our unconventional life as American expats living and working online in our small South American country. Join us for a few laughs, lots of smiles, expat information and a bit of inspiration.

We enjoy sharing our unconventional life with you, and we encourage you to live yours, whatever that may be.

Latest Videos

The majority of our videos are about our Ecuador expat life. We do lots of fun and entertaining activities in our spare time when we’re not busy working our day jobs, and we take our camera along to film them for you.

We share things like belly dancing, salsa dancing, popup markets, museum tours, walking tours, day trips, and lots of delicious food from Ecuador’s AMAZING restaurants. Our unconventional life was our dream, but now it’s our reality. And it can be yours, too.

Latest Ecuador Expat Info Videos

If you’re dreaming of an unconventional life like ours, we would LOVE to help you achieve it. That’s why we post videos and information about becoming expats and moving to a different country.

We were scared to death when we decided to sell everything we own and leave the US so we know how you must feel. Hopefully, our videos and experiences living as expats in Ecuador will reduce some of the mystery and relieve some of your stress. There’s nothing special about us. If we can do it, anyone can. Including you.

Latest Day In The Life Videos

Our Ecuador Day In The Life videos are a lot of fun to film! Hopefully you enjoy watching them just as much!

Life here isn’t much different than our old lives back in the States. We hang out with friends, go shopping, walk a lot and cook a lot. The main difference is the pace of life here. It took us awhile to get used to it, but we’ve fully embraced the “tranquilo.”
