Come one and all to this free, new, 4-day course for new (or hopeful) ex-pat residents of Cuenca, co-sponsored by the municipality and Amauta, Cuenca’s oldest language school. Held Monday through Thursday (November 17 to 20) in a restored patrimonial building in El Centro.
Subjects covered include:
• Residency/visa regulations
• Cuenca’s cultural programs
• City services for burial and cremation
• Water treatment systems
• Emergency services
• Garbage and recycling
• Taxes
• Property ownership
• Local customs
• And much more!
The fourth day includes an expertly-guided walking tour of El Centro by four local Cuencanas.
The program was envisioned by Mayor Zamora and has been two years in planning. Its purpose is to welcome and help new ex-pat residents of Cuenca integrate into the community by introducing them to the wide range of municipal services and processes provided by the city as well as to welcome them to the Cuencanan culture.
These dates represent the third and final opportunity to take this course. (The first two very popular courses took place in early and late October.) Space is limited, so sign up early to ensure a slot.
