Hola Unconventionals! We’re so honored that you want to connect with us!
We would love to be able to talk to everyone individually and answer everyone’s questions in-depth, but there just aren’t enough hours in the day. We’re getting more than a thousand comments, direct messages and emails each week so we’re not able to respond as quickly or thoroughly as we used to.
If you have a question about moving to Ecuador, here are the best ways to get them answered.
The best way to get your questions answered and interact directly with us and other expats is to join our Band of Unconventionals on Patreon.
We have a very active private chat community with both current and future expats. Several members already live in Ecuador and they’re happy to share their experiences (and English speaking contacts) with you.
Plus, each month we share a Question & Answer video responding to questions posed by our patrons. For higher level patrons, we also host a monthly Live Chat Hangout and a Zoom Happy Hour.
You can join for just a few dollars and you can upgrade, downgrade or cancel at any time. There are NO long-term commitments. And you’ll get access to ALL of our past patron-only videos right after you sign up!
While we provide a lot of extra value for your patronage, the real benefit is the support your contribution offers to us. Without our patrons, JP would have continued building websites instead of publishing our videos and articles, or answering questions, and for that we are TRULY GRATEFUL!
If you would like to speak with us in real-time, you can join us for our monthly Zoom Happy Hour video call along with a few of your fellow Unconventionals. All of us can share ideas, inspiration, moral support, encouragement and more.
We also invite experts like Paul Wilches from Relocation Services of Ecuador and Gabriela Lazzaro from Inti Luz Properties to answer questions and provide the Ecuadorian point of view on various topics. Their advice and insight is truly invaluable.
There’s NO COMMITMENT REQUIRED. You can sign-up for one month and then cancel or downgrade back to your previous level.
We post pictures and short videos nearly every day over on Instagram so if you want to see what daily life is really like outside the hamster wheel, be sure to follow us there.
We have an active Facebook Group with members who already live in Ecuador and they’re happy to answer your questions. We aren’t as active on Facebook as we are in our Patreon community, but it’s a good free alternative and a great way to meet other expats.
Signup for our weekly newsletter with expat news in English over on Live Abroad Now. We send it out every Friday and you can unsubscribe at any time. Plus, you’ll gain immediate access to our Ecuador Cost of Moving and Living Calculator (Excel Workbook).
We created a new website for Ecuador Expat Information to make it easier for you to find answers to your most pressing questions about living abroad in Ecuador.
Each week, we add a new blog post and send a newsletter with current news that’s relevant to expats. Amelia checks Ecuador’s Spanish news media every day to make sure we stay on top of current events and we’ll let you know about the week’s most important stories (in English).
PLUS, you’ll get immediate access to our Ecuador Cost of Moving and Living Calculator after you signup for the newsletter.
Drop us a note with a specific question and we’ll do our best to get it answered asap.
