Thank you Xoie, I appreciate your input and advice. As soon as practical I am planning to come to Loji for several months. I am at a huge disadvantage in that I speak no Spanish, but I have been many places (incl. Ecuador) that I did not speak ... Read More

I seen El Presidente make his announcement about a week ago but may or may not run in the future. I guess he was tired of dealing with the negativity of recent months. It's concerning for me, because he had Ecuador's future as his personal ... Read More

Yes.... that makes sense... as I have no feel for the technical issues that may ensue. The Mexican is from Mexico but has been in the US for 20+ years working. He also has crews here and is called "Maestro". I didn't realize that ... Read More

Thanks for that information CCC. I have heard about the slow pace, but never heard of the 20% speed rate. On a couple occasions while in Cuenca, I watched construction workers and I did have to laughed and even called my wife over to watch how ... Read More
