Moving, Retiring in Ecuador? This book will help

“WITHOUT QUESTION IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING LIVING IN ECUADOR, THIS BOOK SHOULD BE PART OF YOUR RESEARCH” Brandon Keene – Dragoman

—————————————————-
As a long-time resident of Ecuador, I can say with certainty that you won’t find a book like this with profound cultural insights, Do’s and Don’ts, as well as invaluable ‘must-know’ information on what to expect when setting up residence in Ecuador. In this book, Nicholas Crowder draws on his 30-plus years’ years of first-hand experience in Ecuador, marrying into an Ecuadorian family, and dealing with locals and situations on all levels. While many of the “how to” books are written from the personal perspective of one or two people who have lived here in Ecuador for a few years…. Crowder hits us with bulleted fact after fact, replete with colorful anecdotes; this is an easy and entertaining read. Your life in Ecuador may very well depend on it!
