🔴 Crime Surge in Ecuador: What Expats Need to Know!
In this video, I share the latest updates on crime and safety concerns in Ecuador, specifically in Manta. With shootings, extortion, and an increase in drug-related incidents, it’s essential to stay informed. I discuss recent events, including a shocking robbery that led to a shootout and the challenges many local businesses face due to rising crime.
I also touch on Ecuador’s upcoming election and what it could mean for expats. If you’re considering traveling or moving here, you need to watch this before making any decisions.

Remember this folks.
A country might look good on paper, or on a YouTube video, but what about the “Chemistry” between you, the individual and the country and culture as a whole?
This is something we can’t know in advance. We can only make our move, dive in and test the waters…….and see how it goes.
