South Beach Miami Travel Videos on YouTube

Our South Beach Miami Travel Videos on YouTube show the beauty and liveliness of this colorful beach town in Southern Florida. We travel through South Beach Miami when we return to the USA from Cuenca Ecuador. We’re there a few times a year and we always schedule some beach chair relaxation time in South Beach.

South Beach Miami Our Journey from Cuenca Ecuador to South Beach Miami (Episode 94 – Part 1) (4/18/2019) - WE'RE GOING TO INDIA! Two of our friends from Namaste India in Cuenca are getting married in Kerala in Southern India and we're going to their wedding! But first, we must journey from Cuenca Ecuador to South Beach Miami....
South Beach Miami Art Deco South Beach Miami Art Deco + Noe Sushi Quito Airport (Episode 42) (12/19/2018) - Walking around South Beach Miami, it almost feels like you're in a comic book world. The Art Deco style looks a lot like Gotham City. It was even more beautiful at night, but we weren't there long enough to get any good night footage. Our brief video montage really doesn't do justice to the beautiful architecture. We also cover the vegan food options in the Miami and Quito airports....
One Day In South Beach Miami South Beach Miami Day On The Beach + Lunch at Plant Theory & Dinner at Full Bloom (Episode 41) (12/18/2018) - We spent a day in South Beach Miami on our way back to Cuenca Ecuador. In this video, we spent a lazy day on the beach, and had a delicious lunch at Plant Theory and a decadent dinner at Full Bloom. On the first night when we arrived in South Beach from Atlanta, we ate at Planta South Beach and it was amazing!
Planta South Beach Miami Planta South Beach Dinner in Miami FL (Episode 40) (12/15/2018) - Our dinner at Planta South Beach in Miami was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! We ordered the chef's sampler that came with NINE courses, including a delicious dessert!

Amelia And JP Ecuador

Following a life-changing event back in Denver Colorado, we took stock of our lives and decided we needed to do something different.

After a lot of soul searching and some VERY tough decisions, we made the choice to sell everything we owned and leave the US in search of a more unconventional life, in a more affordable and tranquilo part of the world.

This course will make your move to Ecuador easier, faster and cheaper than ours was!

For all of our viewers from the USA: Happy Indepen For all of our viewers from the USA: Happy Independence Day! On July 2nd, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of Independence from Great Britain. Two days later on July 4th, delegates from the 13 colonies officially adopted the Declaration of Independence, which was written by Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Roger Sherman, Benjamin Franklin and Robert R. Livingston. Interestingly, Adams believed that Independence Day should be celebrated on July 2nd, and refused to appear at July 4th events. Adams and Jefferson both died on July 4th, 1826, exactly 50 years after the Declaration of Independence was adopted. Que interesante! Amelia and I hope you have a wonderful Independence Day! #unitedstates #independenceday #4thofjuly #unitedstatesofamerica
BREAKING NEWS! ECUADOR PROTESTS ARE OVER!!! (Ecuad BREAKING NEWS! ECUADOR PROTESTS ARE OVER!!! (Ecuador News In English) After several hours of deliberation, and a return to the negotiation table after everyone thought it was over, the government of Ecuador and the leaders of the indigenous protests have reached an agreement to end the paro (strike). Among the concessions is an additional 5 cent reduction in the price of low-octane gas and diesel bringing the final price of each to $2.40 and $1.75, respectively. Premium high-octane gas is imported and will continue to fluctuate with the commodity market. It's currently around $4.90/gallon. The government will also subsidize the cost of fertilizer. Prior to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, 38% of the fertilizer used in Ecuador came from Russia. However, the resulting trade embargoes placed on Russia are preventing those imports. Without that supply, the resulting scarcity and competition for other non-Russian sources has driven up the price. There were several other parts of the agreement, including the establishment of a process for managing and monitoring the projects that will take more time to implement. We expect the road closures will be dismantled soon and the mingas (public cleanup) will begin tomorrow after everyone parties tonight. #Ecuador #paronacional #expats #ecuadorturistico #ecuadorisallyouneed #quitoecuador #ecuador🇪🇨
Hola Unconventionals. A lot of you have been askin Hola Unconventionals. A lot of you have been asking us for our thoughts on the Ecuador national protests that began a week ago yesterday on Monday, June 13th. Most of you already know that we don't discuss politics. We're not a political channel or a news outlet. We share informational and entertainment videos about Ecuador and moving abroad. So it makes us very uncomfortable to discuss political issues, especially when we don't fully understand the history behind them. However, if you're planning a trip to Ecuador, you need to be aware of the protests and the impact they are having on travel inside the country. Most of the road closures are on the highways making travel between cities difficult or impossible. Unlike the 2019 paro (strike), most of the city streets throughout the country are still open. For current road closures, the Google Maps Traffic Layer is mostly accurate, and the government has a website here: https://www.ecu911.gob.ec/consulta-de... President Lasso and Leonidas Iza, president of the CONAIE (Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador) who is leading the protest, have agreed to mediation so we're hopeful that this will be resolved in the coming days and the paro will end. If you have a trip planned to Ecuador in the next few days, you may want to consider rescheduling it, especially if you're planning a visit to Quito, Guayaquil or the coast, or if you have a cross-country road trip planned. If you're planning to fly directly from Quito to Cuenca or Manta, you may be ok. However, several domestic and international flights were canceled yesterday and today due to road closures around the Quito airport. Tourism is a huge part of the Ecuadorian economy so please don’t cross this beautiful, amazing country off your list. The protests will end and there will be a minga to clean everything up and you won’t even know it happened. If there are any significant new developments or the paro ends we’ll let you know. #ecuador #paronacional #ecuadorisallyouneed #ecuador🇪🇨

Hola Unconventionals! If you're planning a move to Hola Unconventionals! If you're planning a move to Ecuador, we can show you how to do exactly what we did! We created the eCourse we wish we had when we moved to Ecuador in 2017. We felt our way around in the dark and learned every lesson the hard way. And some of those lessons cost us a lot of money! So we decided to roll all of those painful and expensive lessons into a comprehensive, step-by-step video tutorial to walk you through the process of moving to Ecuador. Here's what a few of our students had to say: "Truly A to Z! Excellent information (videos, text, links to other videos and articles) plus access to amazing resources, and presented ala Amelia & JP style (i.e., intelligent, fun, honest). And the money saving tips will more than pay for the cost of this course." -Gail, NYC "Thanks for putting together a great course! The topics covered were spot on and very relevant to me. The common sense approach to the material was refreshing. Thanks for what you do." -Brian, Texas "Such great info and the topics covered were detailed. So many extra links and resources to all the helpful items for making a decision and making a move. Thanks Amelia & JP for putting this together!" -Karey, U.S.A.
