Great video great way to introduce a new business with so much passion for the community in that little special place in southern Ecuador 🎉 best wishes really
Would it be possible for you guys to perhaps interview or talk about being an older, single expat in Vilcabamba? Seems like most of your videos focus on families, kids, spouses, kid’s activities and so on, and they’re great, but am curious about the activities and experiences of older singles as well. Thank you for all you do, and keep those great discussions coming!
I just discovered something. After 15 years in Ecuador I finally found the local source for "grits". Its called Morocho Fino. Gracias Charlito. Fantastic. Cooks up like in los EE.UU. (the states) and tastes great. How I missed it for all this time....don't know. We never stop searching and learning....a good thing. I like working in my kitchen, prepairing my own meals, market shopping for the ingredients. For those expats who don't feel that way, lots of restraunts to choose from...OMG.....Fish and chips!!! I will check out the Sol Bistro for that long lost favorite. This video, great production, lighting, audio, camera shots...impressive.
Great interview. My heart certainly resignated with your guests. Growing up in a small town in Wisconsin I experienced community but living in Denver, Colorado for almost 30 years now, I miss it so very much. Hopefully, next January I and my carpenter friend (possibly others) will visit Vilcabamba. Thank again for your excellent interview.
I want to see Jesse interview himself with clever camera edits to make it look like two different people. Showing up in Ecuador without knowing Spanish must have been wild, as Jesse would say. 😄
Thank you very much for everything you share all the people you invite to share in your channel. Thanks to all this people my dream to come back to my home Ecuador gets close and more clear in what I want to create when I get there. And is good to know that there is real community ❤ my heart is calling 🙏🌈🌈🌈🌈
I quit smoking 25 years ago, and Vilcabamba reminds me of the only reason I miss the evil habit. Smoking areas were a mixing bowl for different perspectives. In my world, finance people speak to finance people; truck drivers speak to truck drivers, etc. etc. Smoking areas promoted interacting with a broad swath of humanity. Seems like Vilcabamba does the same - not just this interview, but all the interviews I've seen.
