What can be shipped? by Ivy76
I understand that it is possible to bring household items and furniture to Ecuador. I read that 200kg of clothing is allowed per person. Then I read that CD's and videos are not allowed. Does this really mean my children won't be able to bring ...
Thank you for all your replies! Very helpful. My family is happy to know we can bring some of their favorite peanut butter and mayonnaise with them :-) I am sure once we're in Ecuador they'll find new favorites quickly, but being able to bring ... Read More

Thanks for the replies! My husband and I have hardly anything we want to take with us. Just some personal items and Dutch books. The kids, that's another story :-) They don't want to part with their Legos, dolls, books and DVD collections etc. ... Read More

Used Van by Ivy76
Hi, Does anyone know what a used van with 9 seats would cost (approximately)? It doesn't need to be a new one, but not more than 5 years old. What would it cost to get it registered and on the road? I am also wondering what taxes would need to be ...
Vinny66 So there are not many vans running on diesel, but diesel is cheaper? Is it available in a lot of places? tfpob Smart plan! I'm definitely going to check it out! Read More

tfpob Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this matter. I am definitely going to look into it. I have approx. 2 years to figure out how to go about this, so that should give me enough time to figure things out. Read More

Thank you,Vinny. Just what I need, now I can make some calculations. I understand most people use public transportation, but with a family of 8, that would be very annoying. If we had a van, we could use it both for our project as well as for ... Read More

Family of 8 by ClifandTracy
Hello, My wife and I have six children and are looking to relocate. We currently live comfortably in Idaho on just my income as an electrician. We do live very simply though. Can I get some feedback on what the cost of living for a couple with ...
We are a family of 8 as well and are also planning on relocating to Ecuador. Our oldest child is 14, the youngest one is 2. I would love to get in touch with you, perhaps we can share some findings. Have you found out a lot about cost of living? Read More
Did you lean Spanish prior to making the move? by ChowBella
Hi everyone, So, did you? Our move is still in it's infantile (zygote, more realistically) stage as my husband still has a couple of years left on his military contract. I'm curious as to how many of you took language lessons prior to your move ...
My children and I are now learning Spanish with Rosetta Stone, so I sure hope it's not a waste of time. I think once we finish it, we'll try to find a native speaker to teach us some more, so we'll at least be a little prepared when we make the ... Read More
HomeSchooling by BOSTON MAMA
Is Home schooling legal in Ecuador? Not to sure how long we will actually be there, so perhaps it won't matter. But if we do stay, I will home school. Anyone know?
We are very seriously looking into the possibility of moving to Ecuador with our 6 kids (2-13 years old) and we would want to homeschool our children, as we do now. From what I understand it is possible to, as a parent, take an aptitude test. But ... Read More
