Dear Expats in Ecuador! We are currently living in Chicago but seriously considering moving to Ecuador for at least a year or two if not the rest of our lives. A couple of minor, miscellaneous questions (if anyone can help)...how is cell phone usage down there? Is it expensive to call the US? How is internet connection? Looking to move to Cuento or Cotacachi, like the small town feel of Cotacachi. What do most expats miss the most re: food, beverage, etc? Can you have specialty items from home shipped to yourself in Ecuador? Should we take our car from home? As you can see, any and all info would be greatly appreciated!! Hope you are all enjoying that wonderful climate as it is below zero with windchills here...ugh:(
