Diego Buitron Art Opening Tonight!

Tonight at 6 PM is the much anticipated art opening for Diego Buitrón’s exhibit “Madre Tierra”!

The exhibition comprises three series that, despite their diversity, exhibit a harmonious correlation, particularly evident in their chromatics and relaxed strokes, seemingly stemming from the soul of the Earth itself (Ancestral Messages, Mother Earth, Colorful Life).

During the art opening, we will be treated to a special body art performance by the artist, Diego. He will paint a live model, interpreting our connection with Mother Earth — exploring themes such as how we treat her, how she reciprocates, our current state, and the path we are headed towards. The model will lie down on a blank canvas, and after the performance, her body’s outline will remain, becoming an interactive canvas throughout the exhibit’s duration at idiomART. Visitors can access paints, pencils, and collage materials to contribute to the evolving artwork. At the end of the exhibit, we will unveil the completed collaborative masterpiece!

We hope you can join us as this will be an interesting and very unique art opening. Plus, you will have the chance to visit with the artist, which is always a special experience.

Here is more information about the exhibition and the artist.

At the heart of this art exhibit lies the personification of Mother Earth’s generosity and richness, her cycles intertwined with ancient cosmic themes, dreams beyond comprehension, and fantastical realms. It extends to our dreamlike daily existence, inviting us to embrace joyful living, physical activity, and a mindful rejection of wasteful consumerism that harms both ourselves and our unique world. This exhibition prompts introspection on our actions and urges positive changes to benefit our beloved Mother Earth, rather than exploiting her thoughtlessly.

This collection encompasses mixed media pieces—acrylic on canvas and collages utilizing recycled materials and even earth itself.

Diego Buitrón is an accomplished artist from San Antonio de Ibarra and has showcased his work in esteemed galleries and museums across the Americas and Europe. This marks his second exhibition at idiomART. His art evokes nostalgia for our ancestors while advocating for our active role in safeguarding Mother Earth. Diego says that “the greatest expression and display of love for Mother Earth is to reduce our vain and selfish consumerism, leaving as a legacy a clean, dignified world, habitable for our children.”

You are invited ~ Come as you are

At Trinity Church we are committed to learning the truth from the word of God. Because of that commitment, we have grown individually, as families, and as a community.

Over the past 5 years, our commitment to learning the truth has caused our Sunday morning attendance to reach capacity in our auditorium.

To make room for more people, we offer two services on Sunday morning. Our first service starts promptly at 9 AM. Our second service starts at 11 AM. One church, two services.

Children’s church for newborn to 12 years old will only be offered during our first service. Coffee and time to hang out and meet new friends is between services 10:30 until 11 AM. Free English classes are offered at 11 AM.

At Trinity Church, God is building His church with people of all ages, from newborns to those well into their 80s, people from many different cultures, countries, and backgrounds. Gringos and Latinos come together as one family, to build strong relationships, serve each other, and serve our community. The way Jesus wants His church to be.

Come and see what God is doing in our city through Trinity Church.

We are located on Ordonez Lasso in the River Side building (same building as Banco Pichincha next door to Home Vega). We are on the first floor.

Remembering Robert

Robert Charles Folk passed away February 7th of this year and he was my common-law husband, best friend and soulmate.

I cannot get the body released from the morgue and thus I have decided to do a ceremony for a celebration of his life.

Any and all of you who may have known Robert, I would truly appreciate it if you would contact me so that I can send you the information regarding the ceremony.

I’m devastated over this, and if it takes me the rest of my life I’ll find out how he died while he died and I will get his body released one way or another.

Until then I need to honor him with the ceremony of celebration of not only his life but what a wonderful person he was and all his achievements and accomplishments.

So I ask of you now any of you who did know Robert please contact me so that I can send you the invitation for the ceremony.

In love and light,

Charming Panina for adoption

Pinina is about two years old, is12 kg and she is the size of a beagle. She is sterilized, vaccinated, dewormed and has flea protection. Panina is super sociable with everyone, docile and walks on a leash, it is not difficult for her to adapt to a new place. I rescued her from the countryside, since her owner was very cruel and she killed her puppies. At first my intention was just to sterilize her, but I decided to try my luck and find her a home.

Panina is very relaxed and not afraid of anything.

If you would like to meet this precious and adorable doggie, please reach out to me for a meet and greet. She’s a good girl!

Thank you, Drack and Roberto, for finding my phone

This is a follow-up on the iPhone I lost on a public bus. It was returned to me yesterday and I want to extend a big and public thank-you to Drack, who found it, and his brother Roberto who also tried very hard over 2 weeks to return it to me. Thank you!!

It was all my fault that I carelessly left the phone on a bus to Sinincay. The Find My Phone feature said later that day that it was at the Food Court at Mall del Rio. I went over first thing the next morning, but mall administration and the mall Apple store knew nothing.

Two days later, there was a post about my phone on GringoPost. Someone from my contact list asked someone else to post for her. The message was she had my phone.

But she didn’t.

She forwarded to me a voice recording from an Ecuadorean man who said he had my phone. He sounded very nice and seemed honestly to want to return my phone to me.

But — and no one know how — he sent the message to her using my WhatsApp, so there was no number for him, only my own number. The contact had no further info.

I had the phone wiped clean for security reasons and that, it seemed, was the end of it.

Then a week later, not ready to give up, I handed out flyers to the bus drivers on the Sinincay route, asking them to spread the word that I was still looking for my phone.

Is that why yesterday the two brothers renewed urgent calls to me to say they had my phone?

I went to meet them and they were lovely people. You could just tell.

Thank you again.

US voter registration assistance

Mark your calendar for this Thursday (tomorrow) or any Thursday up to October (Don’t wait until the last minute). A certified voter registration consultant is available to assist you regardless of political party.

Which state do I vote in?
Your voting address is the last place you lived in the US before moving abroad. Use that address even if:

• Your family no longer owns the property
• You no longer have ties to the state
• You don’t intend to return
• Your address no longer exists as a residence
• You weren’t registered to vote

If you’ve never lived in the US, your “voting address” is the address of the last place your US citizen parent lived in the US. If both of your parents are US citizens, you may use the last US address of either one.

We can assist with all these questions or any other you may have.

Looking for knowledgeable gardener for small patio

If you are a knowledgeable gardener or you know a knowledgeable gardener, can you please contact me?

I am tired of paying $30 for a half-hour of work (one company). I am tired also of arrogant people treating me rudely (another gardener). And I’m tired of listening to the woes of how badly some gringos have treated him (a third gardener).

I have a small patio garden that needs a loving hand to make sure the plants are properly fertilized without chemicals, that the soil is changed when it needs to be, that slugs are removed when they grow big, that plants are in pots that are the proper size, and that plants are placed correctly in the sun or the shade (as the case may be). New plants will be required from time to time.

Let the gardener also be a nice person. Who knows her stuff (his stuff?). Who charges a reasonable fee.

Location is El Centro.

Emilio, handyman is ready to serve you

Cold weather is coming…There is something about having a cold, drafty room. People of all ages crave warmth and find cold weather unpleasant when it penetrates the home. Outside, it might be stimulating, but in the house, not so much!

It is time to fix those drafty windows and doors. Curtains can help and we can install the hardware and help you hang them. Or, we can winterize the windows with weather strip or, when necessary, install new insulated windows that will make your home as cozy as a kitchen. It can make a huge difference!

Sometimes it is difficult to use the bathroom. We can assess your situation and assist you. A lower entrance to your shower, grab bars in the shower and in front of or beside the toilet or sink might help. Let us take a look and make the corrections you need.

I am an experienced handyman, ready to help with your designs and projects. Maybe they are things you’ve been putting off, or something that just popped up in your mind. It doesn’t matter. Just explain what you need and we’ll find a way to design it to your satisfaction. We have helped many expats and Ecuadorians repair their homes, install windows, build patios, etc. Many have their own designs for us to build.

At Cuenca Emilio of All Trades, H.M. Constructions, we are highly recommended for metal working, woodworking, painting, cleaning, plumbing, general electrical work, installing ceramic tiles, and more.

We have received GringoPost’s Best Handyman award for multiple years, including 2023.

Contact us today and watch your project come to fruition.

Next Holiday in May – Cuenca Car Share

The Battle of Pichincha on May 24 is a national holiday. Banks and some businesses will be closed. Be prepared. May 24 is a Friday – a 3-day weekend. This would be a great date to rent a car and travel around Ecuador to see the beauties of our country.

If you are out driving about, be sure to check the national sites for information on blackouts where you are traveling. Getting gas could be a small challenge if you need it during a blackout – it is possible some gas stations may not have a generator. Some businesses may be closed; others may have limited hours. Although we’ve had welcome rain, the blackouts could return as early as May 21 and washouts can also create difficulties.

How do I check the closures around the country?

Monitor announcements from the Ministry of Energy and Mines for information about electrical outages in your area.

For information about outages in Quito, visit https://www.eeq.com.ec/.

Emilio driver/facilitator

Waterfalls are now spectacular after these rains, and just going into the countryside to get some fresh air is well worth it. It is all possible when you book in advance…I will do my best to serve you and drive you to your destination. I happily drive you anywhere – depending on weather conditions, of course. Some clients have asked to visit the Amazon or drive out to the waterfalls nearby or around the country. Some want to go glamping in the Amazon. I can help. Contact me.

I am a safe driver who can converse fluently with you in English and Spanish. I am also a fluent facilitator who has assisted clients with translations, doctor’s visits, trips to the lawyer, obtaining a driver’s license, and more. I can pick up your groceries or goods and deliver them to you.

I have been serving the community for over 10 years. I am available for your trips around Cuenca by appointment. I also travel the country with my clients. I drop you off and pick you up at airports, hotels, locations all over Ecuador. As we go, I enjoy conversing with you about my country and the things we are seeing.

Contact me in advance for your local or national travel needs. Check my recommendations here on GringoPost and on Facebook.

Psyllium husk!

Dear friends, at Gramm Bulkshop we have psyllium in our store, here we share some information about it:

Psyllium, similarly to other soluble fibers, passes through the small intestine without being completely broken down or absorbed.

Instead, it absorbs water and becomes a viscous compound that benefits constipation, diarrhea, blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol, and weight loss.

Psyllium husk is the main active ingredient in Metamucil, a fiber supplement that reduces constipation.

Benefits:

1. Psyllium relieves constipation
2. It may help treat diarrhea
3. It can lower blood sugar levels
4. It may boost satiety and aid weight loss
5. It can lower cholesterol levels
6. It seems to be good for the heart
7. It has prebiotic effects

People use psyllium as a dietary supplement.

We want to reduce the use of plastic, we use paper bags and we invite you to bring your favorite bag, as well as your containers to fill them with the necessary amount.

We are at Sucre 14_14 and Estevez de Toral near to San Sebastian park,

Enjoy learning Spanish!

There are many ways to learn Spanish here in Cuenca. However, sometimes overly large class sizes, lack of feedback and progress checks, inconvenient locations or times, or incompatible teaching strategies contribute to poor learning.

Classes in your home or a convenient neutral location are what I offer. I have my own transportation, which allows more flexibility in scheduling and conducting your classes.

Having lived and taught in both the US and Ecuador has enhanced my passion for teaching. All levels of learning; elementary, intermediate, and advanced can be covered for any age. First, we would do a beginning skills assessment. Then we create a personal learning program, tweaking classes as we progress. We can develop general reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills and get into detailed sentence structure if you like. We’ll make learning Spanish fun!

Please call me if you feel we could work together. I look forward to hearing from you!

Spanish pronunciation (sneak preview)

If you compare your pronunciation with the one of a native Spanish speaker, where are you at right now?

(Trying to speak a language in terms of grammar and rules, perceiving ourselves with a strong accent is embarrassing/ discouraging).

If your answer is… “Well, I’ve tried several times online courses/apps/YouTube videos but definitely speaking Spanish is not for me”

Maybe the “Speak before write training” is what you need to try before jumping out again to a new blind adventure using an online translator.

Here’s a “sneak peek” of what’s waiting for you inside:

How you can improve your pronunciation by applying to your daily practice the 12 basic tongue movements in Spanish language (lessons 1 to 9) so that your confidence will increase automatically as the Tomebamba river increases its flow after a heavy May rainfall.

Why it is important, facial cleansing

Facial cleansing is a fundamental aspect of skin care, vital to keeping skin healthy and radiant. Beyond treating specific skin problems such as acne or dryness, regular cleansing removes impurities, dirt and excess oil that accumulate on the skin throughout the day.

This process helps prevent clogged pores, breakouts and dullness, promoting a clearer complexion and smoother texture. In addition, proper cleansing prepares the skin to better absorb aftercare products, maximizing their effectiveness. Incorporating a consistent cleansing routine by a skin care professional is essential to preserving your skin’s natural balance and vitality, ensuring you look and feel your best every day.

For this month we have a 2 cleansing x $35 promotion.

Recommendation for: Tecno Guru, tech support/security system

You may be familiar with Tecno Guru for servicing computers, printers and cell phones, but did you know they also install state of the art security systems? One of the issues about living in an older single-family house is that when the doorbell rings, you have no idea if it is someone asking to cut your grass, selling garbage bags, people asking for money, or worst-case unsavory people who may want to do you harm.

Luis and Sebastian from Tecno Guru recently came to our home and installed a new security system to replace the outdated one. They did an initial assessment of the house that has many doors, windows as well as two skylights. After determining the vulnerable areas, they installed an alarm system with motion detectors throughout the house, including on the skylights. The also installed a video doorbell with a keypad for a keyless entry system. Everything has a battery backup, and is wireless so should we ever move, we can take the system with us. We received ample training on how to arm/disarm the system as well as to monitor the camera on the doorbell. We had one tiny glitch and they immediately came out to resolve the issue. Also included in the price is a six month follow up visit where they conduct a diagnostic check.

So, while Tecno Guru can certainly help you with your computer needs, please consider them should you find the need for a security system. Both Luis and Sebastian speak English, and they are professional, courteous and on time. I am so pleased with the service they provided as well as the system them installed. I highly recommend them.

Recommendation for: Sara Chaca, attorney

I contacted Sara Chaca when I relocated to Cuenca 2 years ago to help me obtain my temporary visa and cedula. From the very beginning Sara and her staff were very professional, friendly and walked me thru the visa process from start to finish. When I had a question Sara and her staff were right there to guide me in the right direction, so when it came time to apply for my permanent visa and new cedula Sara and her staff continued to provide great service and just recently I got my permanent visa and cedula along with helping me set up my IESS insurance account.

So, I highly recommend Sara and her staff for going thru the visa process in Ecuador

Luxury, furnished, downtown 1-bedroom with 2 intimate gardens, for sale

This luxury, furnished 1-bedroom Cuenca condo has 2 intimate gardens, is 800 sq. ft – and feels even bigger – thanks to the floor to ceiling glass separating the living space from the gardens. Fully furnished with custom-made pieces, this special offering is found in one of the most exclusive and secure newer developments in El Centro — Casas del Cipres — situated between the famed Calle Larga and the Tomebamba River.

Located in the center of the historic district — with its top restaurants, museums, shops, coffee houses, and cultural institutions — the building itself is an oasis of calm and serenity. A private gated entrance in the rear of the building leads to the walking and bike paths along the river making this an ideal combination of city excitement and nature-enhanced beauty. Inside the building is an exquisite common garden with avocado trees, and a shared rooftop with views of the famed blue domes of the Cathedral … Cuenca’s landmark.

This warm and inviting apartment has a large open-concept layout, with an entrance area where you can leave your keys and shoes (or make it into a bar, as there is a built-in wine rack and a space for a wine refrigerator to extend the entertaining area.) The living room has a couch that can be converted into a bed, as well as a cocktail table, and a modern and beautiful side chair that can also serve as a 3rd dining chair, plus a TV.

The living room leads into the dining room with a table and 2 chairs and also into the large kitchen with a fabulous island with three more comfy stools that are perfect for a casual meal, or for your guests to enjoy a glass of wine while the host cooks dinner. The kitchen is equipped with an induction oven, a stove, refrigerator, microwave and range hood. In the island, which provides a separate work space, are storage areas and much more storage is found throughout the many kitchen cabinets. The sink also has a pull-down faucet, perfect for pot filling and cleaning the sink. Although there is no dishwasher currently, there is a perfect space for one right by the sink, if this is something you desire.

The entire living area leads out to two gardens, one that currently has a country feel with flower-covered chairs and a table surrounded by sumptuous plants and trees. This patio is also accessed from the living room and also from the bedroom. The 2nd patio is separate and can be reached through the living room. Should you want one larger patio the divider between them can easily be taken down.

Off the living area is a good-sized bathroom that serves as a social, guest bath as well as the bath for the master bedroom. The master has an adjustable queen size bed, two side tables, and tons of closet space.
There is also a laundry room off the kitchen and a small bodega/storage unit right outside the front door.

All appliances, furniture (including the outdoor furniture), lighting fixtures, and window treatments are included in the purchase price.

This exceptional condo is located on the basement level of the building, but you feel as if you’re enveloped in nature with the sound of the river soothing your soul, giving a calming element to this apartment.

The unit is also a perfect Airbnb apartment. Airbnb condos in Casa del Cipres garner top prices for rentals in the city due to its great location and modern amenities, so should you be looking for a great investment property, this is it.

Designed for quiet livability behind the hustle and bustle of old town Cuenca, the building is also across the river is the “New” Cuenca with tons of restaurants, banks, hospitals, grocery stores and a mall — all within walking distance from the apartment. Gas and water for the condo are managed by the HOA so you’ll never run out of gas or have to worry about lugging around gas tanks or being out of hot water.
