The holiday season in England by Priscilla
Hello everyone, Are you about to celebrate the holiday season in England? In many countries and cultures, the festive season is the time for happiness and reunions/gatherings. Is it so in England? How do English people celebrate this very special ...
Fred.... just so you know, you're not alone.... here in the United States, we are so enamored with the "Christmas Spirit" that Spirits is a good way to get through it.... We are overrun by Pumpkin Spice Coffee, Han Solo boots and ... Read More

Hi Everybody!!! Me and my family are thinking about jumping the USA ship for many reasons most of you are familiar with. We are seeking a new life where we could live/play/work comfortably without the stresses associated living where we are. I am ...
Mugtech~ Our prices are competitive with other "mom 'n' pop" shops, and have been discussing raising prices already. As of now, we're the only shop in town that handles any make/model vehicle, with the addition of farm equipment. We are registered ... Read More

MariaPiaBlog~ Right now I know enough Spanish to get slapped across the face. I have been listening to CDs that spit out words and simple phrases. Rosetta Stone will be my next purchase... I've been able to communicate with other Spanish-speaking ... Read More

Mugtech~ Yeah, heard about that too, and it just "might" be a welcoming change. As it is now, I literally have customers waiting in line, working 6 days a week, 10 to 14 hours a day. I live to work... and I'm very tired. The only day off is Sunday, ... Read More

I would like to clarify something here... I personally traveled through nine different countries, and felt the weight of our leader's decisions resting on my shoulders. I almost got into a fight with a bunch of Britts on a cruise ship to Libya, when ... Read More

BobH~ No, I was not aware... all this info is unfolding as time goes on, and I thank you for bringing it to my attention. I was already aware of the possibilities of problems crossing borders, being "gringo" for one, and being an "American gringo" ... Read More

MariaPiaBlog~ Great info, and have already started researching dealerships. As far as your comnent about "mechanics in Cuenca", it seems as if it's more the reason to start something up, and be the "go-to guy". I have enough tools to perform minor ... Read More

Suefrankdahl~ Yeah, I've read in other blogs and pages about the competition amongst artists, and can truly say my M.I.L's jewelry is truly unique and might add an extra flavor to the community. I've also been to resorts where bellydance classes ... Read More

suefrankdahl..... Both my wife and M-I-L are artists... my M.I.L. happens to be one of the most talented multi-media artists I've met, creating some of the most beautiful jewelry I've seen. However, she also has "Macular Degeneration"... her ... Read More

BZULAUF..... Excellent info.... I'll be giving him a call.... We've already started the "give-away/sell" process in our minds (making mental notes) to minimize the amount of goods to ship. From what I've read so far, we'll need to snatch the stove ... Read More

timo31750..... Yeah, I kinda figured about the shipping cost without doing any research yet. Since I am a "specialist" in Nissan Products, I did search for Nissan dealerships and found them in the major cities like Quito. I have also been a trainer ... Read More

jessekimmerling..... Good to know, and like I mentioned before, I just put a new engine in my Suburban, I'd hate to let it go while it's so "young". I might think about the prospect of opening a shop. Mechanics do serve a purpose, and as it is now, ... Read More

Mackbutter.....Yeah, I read about the price difference between the vehicles there and "here", but was unaware about the "age" of the vehicle to be transported. I was hoping it might have been a viable choice, I just installed a brand-new engine in ... Read More
