How We Save $1,200/Month | AmeliaAndJP.com

We SLASHED more than $1200 from our monthly budget by moving abroad and ditching our cars.

Unfortunately, the United States is built around cars and individual transportation. It’s next to impossible to get around without your own vehicle.

However, in most other countries, cities are designed to be walkable and bikeable, while public transportation is very efficient, affordable and widespread.

We’ve lived in Ecuador for 5 years and still don’t own a car. We don’t miss it and don’t plan to buy one.

We walk most places, which helped us lose weight after we left the US, and it continues to help us stay in better shape.

After just 3 weeks in the US, we’ve both gained 5 pounds from not walking and eating out more because we spend too much time in the car and don’t have time to cook.

In Ecuador, when we can’t walk, we use public transportation, call a cab or hire a private driver.

We just don’t need a car in Ecuador, and the personal and financial benefits are tremendous!

If you would an introduction to our private drivers, tell us more here (it’s a free service).

Are you planning a move to Ecuador? We created the Ecuador Expat Fast Track eCourse to make your move abroad as easy and painless as possible. It has 63 videos with tons of written content that will walk you through every step from A-to-Z. We even have a downloadable move abroad checklist and a city comparison matrix that will help you choose the perfect location based on what’s important to you.

Hola todos! Welcome to my author bio page! Let's see. Where to begin... I grew up in the country on a lake outside a small Kansas farm town. As soon as I could, I got the hell outta there! Since then, I've lived and/or worked in Kansas City, Washington D.C., Denver, San Francisco, and Ecuador. I started and sold a dotcom, wrote a book about it, started a YouTube channel, and now I write a lot. Amelia and I have embraced the Unconventional Life and we want to help you do it, too!
