What a nice and friendly woman, we love her in Ecuador, we love you angelina, thank you for showing the world the beauties of Ecuador... And that you need to know galapagos hehe
es un canal de viajes culinarios, por lo que cada video trata sobre la tradición y la cultura de la comida en un lugar. Sabes esto, así que no estoy segura de por qué estás tratando de trollearme.
Muy lindo el paseo por Olón, me encantó, gracias por compartir. Soy fanática de Olón. La visito por muchísimos años. Y ahora toda la pandemia estoy viviendo aquí, buena suerte.
My phone died when I was making you the comment... It felt like you really took it up a notch! I can tell some real time and effort went into the production cycle. Nice creativity on the stitching of clips. Great flow to the exported product. So you know it was noticed and appreciated. Here's to an exciting and purposeful 2022! 🥂
Well this comment made my day. Honestly I wasn't sure if I was going to share this video because I didn't know if I had enough footage or interesting things to share as I fell asleep so early. That said I've become more comfortable with flying the drone, which I really think helps share the landscape of a place. In the Andes it's tough because I keep getting altitude warnings and of course there's the rain. Along the coast the winds are challenging and actually here the drone, which usually scares birds, attracted a bunch of frigates which hovered on top as I shot video of the fishermen going out. I promised myself to experiment with video while here. That some videos could be short, others longer. That the topics could vary and not to worry if a video doesn't get a lot of views. For me the most important thing is the comments and if people have connected with it. So I really appreciate your comments. My approach to life is always poco a poco. I don't need to be amazing in the beginning. I just need to improve.
@@ayngelina The drone is a learning curve but it sure does add magic to a story! Be wary of wind (it tends to get stronger with altitude). I don't know what altitude warnings you're seeing but you can set in your app what max altitude to fly and what altitude to return home. Altitudes are above the home point where you take off from so keep that in mind. Usually I'll get a wind warning suggesting lowering altitude. I suggest going through the app, page by page, setting by setting, and fully understand what everything is. And practice flying, doing all the moves, somewhere you're alone and have room plus obstacles to navigate around. It's a lot of fun but it's a challenge to learn good tight control. Which drone did you get? I got the mini, works great for my purposes.
Part of the issue is some places in Ecuador are so high they are already close to the peak elevation they'll allow you to fly. Also Ecuador has so many airports in the cities and they are no fly zones. I have the Mini 2, it's not so much not knowing how to use it, but just being afraid to lose it every time I fly!
@@ayngelina I've never noticed the peak elevation limitation, but it makes sense there's one due to atmospheric density. I set my maximum ground altitude to 400' since that's the legal limit in the US for recreational flight. I only took it up that far once as an experiment and it felt stupid high. It got too tiny to see and the ground detail was lost from its wide angle camera. 100' seems high and 200' gives me a very distant looking view. The thought of losing it is unnerving. Three ways I've experienced of potentially losing it. Getting into a wind current it can't overcome, getting out of radio controlling range, and colliding with an object. When the wind took hold of it I dropped altitude fast and recovered it by flying close to the ground. When I lost radio contact, it just held still hovering until I ran out from under cover when it reconnected. And twice I've got it hung up in a tree. Once when flying backwards along a forest road filming the family hiking and misjudged the canopy position behind the camera, and once when I was flying through trees and hit the stick in the wrong direction. The second time wasn't too high but the first my son climbed the tree and shook the branches. Other times I've bumped a branch or trunk but the drone never broke, it's pretty robust. It's easy to fly, I agree. Especially out in the open. It's more challenging to navigate through obstacles like in the forest working through the trees around trunks and branches, or flying around and between buildings. But only do this on private property (your own or with permission) because it's unlawful to fly out of line of sight in public. Another cool practice is flying it around throughout the house. Just beware the potential dangers and make sure everyone's out, or in an area you're not flying and knows what you're doing. Also practice those programmed flight tricks, like circling around an object while changing height. They make great cinematic effects and really hard to learn to do manually. Have fun, that's the main thing. And again, great job with Andres on this last one, he did a great job contributing. Oh, your necklace, I'm curious, is there a meaning to that interesting looking design? I don't remember specifically seeing it before but I also feel like I have. Blessings!
It's one of my favourites. I'm doing another coastal road trip in January so that I can also try viche - another fish soup. I just love fish soups for breakfast.
Totally agree with you about soup for breakfast! I love it and I do it all the time. I made caldo de costilla the other day in my Instant Pot, and I've had it for breakfast daily (and dinner) since then. That sudado looks wonderful!
I have some pretty epic accommodation coming your way in the next videos. If I think a hotel is worth sharing I will, but frankly some I booked and would rather not think about ever again!
Hi a new fan over here, I've being following you, i love your videos i wonder if you were a school teacher because you speak nice and clear greetings from Brentwood N.Y.
Don thank you so much! You know it's funny because when I use a transcription app in the subtitle process 30% of the words are incorrect and so I've started to think I don't speak clearly. With this comment I'm instead blaming it on Google transcribe 😊
That soup looks really good. I love fish so much. But, I live in a desert and there's no seafood here. Frozen fish in the supermarket. You're hotel looked very nice.
So coming from growing up on the ocean if I'm not next to it I always buy frozen fish. The fish is frozen at sea and so it's usually better than buying it a few days old unfrozen.
@@keiththomas3141 I don't always bread my fish, sometimes you can just pan fry in butter or bake it with pesto or a tomato sauce on it. I'm not a fan of salmon so I usually choose a white ocean fish like sole, haddock, halibut or cod. I do like whitefish from Ontario when I'm there. As long as it's not endangered I'm open to eating it.
@@ayngelina hola no but i am bored of costa rica after 22 years hear .i am buying a cheap lot .ect .ill be there soon .i like your openness .rocks on the beach no big deal .ect .keep in touch .i have a new you channel soon .print shop printing out cards .as ill be in other countrys soon .ive been to 13 countrys since 1999
@@stevefisktraveler1856 you know I often reference Costa Rica when describing Ecuador. I like to say it has all the beauty and diversity and nature as Costa Rica. But, it has what CR has lost and that's culture. When you lose the typical food you lose local culture. I have really struggled trying to explain why I don't like it there. But I just find all the local sodas and businesses were replaced by foreign owned yoga studios and gluten free vegan cafes. If you have any spots you're interested in let me know as I'm taking another coastal road trip soon.
En si las playas más infravaloradas serían las que quedan en el oro como jambeli y demás playas de allá y es una lástima porque teniendo un hermoso lugar como sus manglares ( como pasa en esmeraldas pero allá la gente sí lo visita mucho más) lo dejan votado o eso he visto en videos, me da una pena, porque no le dan un buen manteniento en esos lados :( si vas a esmeraldas te recomiendo a que vayas a los manglares que une manabi y esmeraldas por mompiche, es hermoso ese recorrido en lancha, ahí verás estuarios donde el agua salada y dulce se juntan!
I'm heading back Jan 6th as long as flights aren't cancelled because of lack of staff. The absolute best beaches are in the Galapagos, that's where you'll see the soft white sand and turquoise water. I know people south of Manta will hate me for saying this but you really don't start seeing the great beaches until you get to the Manabi province. I love Salango and Los Frailes was beautiful. I do love the vibe here in Puerto Cayo and I am really looking forward to January when I do a coastal road trip starting in Esmeraldas and heading south.
@@ayngelina I can’t wait to see those videos. Things have changed on my trip, looks like instead of doing an exploratory trip and going back to the USA I am just moving there and exploring when I get there. I am filing for a retirement visa and should have it before I landed in June.!
I couldn't speak about that with confidence because people could serve you a dish with fried plantain and understand its gluten free but if you're celiac and they fry it in oil that once has a flour empanada you're in trouble. There is a pretty substantial expat group there and I believe they also have a Facebook group. They may be able to speak to this with confidence.
@@ayngelina thanks, I’ll do some digging. Being able to eat safely is my biggest concern. Especially since I can’t find anything on service dog laws there. (I have a gluten detection dog.)
@@freedakaye6720 people are very dog friendly but I don't think they recognize service dogs. The nice thing about Ecuador is that rules can always be bent. But in a place like Puerto Cayo you shouldn't have an issue as it's a relaxed beach town.
Good question! Well #1 is the Galapagos beach I shared yesterday. #2 is Salango and #3 is Los Frailes. BUT I am going to do another coastal tour hopefully at the end of this week so I'm going to check out all the towns I missed.
I'm not sure I understand the reason why they serve instant coffee in Ecuador? A country that grows awesome coffee, I don't know how you can drink it 🤣 I'm a coffee snob I'm bringing my French Press and my manual grinder in Ecuador
Oddly enough most coffee producing countries served instant. It’s also common in Colombia and throughout South East Asia. In Colombia and Cuba the local coffee is cut with a legume to stretch it and reduce the cost. But don’t worry if you go to a coffee shop or formal restaurant in Ecuador you can get ground coffee. Instant is more common along the coast but in the Andes ground coffee is common and many people grow their own coffee.
