Delicious coffee in taste and aroma in the morning?
Enjoying a good coffee is one of the most common traditions in most cultures around the world. Coffee can be found in countless varieties, flavors, and prices.
There are two varieties of coffee trees, Arabica and Robusta. Arabica-type coffee is considered Premium and produces beans with the best flavor. Arabica coffee beans require very special conditions to grow. The coffee tree is highly susceptible to diseases and pests.
Once Arabica coffee is grown under ideal conditions, it must be processed correctly to bring premium coffee to your cup. Manual harvesting is important to ensure that only the reddest and ripest coffee cherry trees are harvested and used in the process. After being harvested, the coffee beans must be dried in the sun before being roasted by the experts.
I’m Andrés Guillermo, I take it to your home at no additional cost, I sell it in promotions of two or three bags at an incredible price. Do not miss out on the opportunity to taste a coffee harvested at 1300 meters above sea level, contact me WhatsApp 099 647 2877 or call me, it will be a pleasure to serve you at home at no additional cost.
I am Andrés Guillermo, the only distributor in Cuenca and Azuay of 100% Arabian coffee, grown and harvested at 1,300 meters above sea level, in the province of Zaruma. I have roasted coffee in two presentations: ground and beans, 450-gram bags so that you can make your breakfast or afternoon coffee a delicious experience in your mouth.

1,808 new cases of COVID-19 in the country this last Sunday in Ecuador
The report reiterates that the Andean province of Pichincha is the one that accumulates the highest number of infections with 100,480 positive cases, which represents an increase of 364 in the last 24 hours. It is followed by the coast of Guayas with 36,351 infections, 312 more than on Saturday, and surpasses Manabí (20,529), Azuay (17,367), El Oro (12,625), Tungurahua (10,216), Loja (10,345), Imbabura (8,618), Cotopaxi (8,127), Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas (7,818), Los Ríos (7,577) and Esmeraldas (6,077).
The problem is that Ecuadorians do not make good use of the mask or use non-approved masks. They care more about what a good mask costs than their own health. According to the World Health Organization, KN95 filter masks are still the most suitable to prevent the spread of the deadly virus.
I am Andrés Guillermo, distributor in Cuenca and Azuay of KN95 masks with filter, made in the USA. These masks are not the ones sold in Shopping Centers, they are masks with sanitary registration, laminated and with high protection. Its use is comfortable, it avoids dizziness, headaches, fogging of lenses or glasses. They are lightweight and are placed behind the ears, but above all 100% safe and reliable. I sell them by unit or box of 20 masks. Contact me at 0996472877, WhatsApp or call me.

Bluebox Asesores: A personal brand developed by Carlos Ramirez (Founder and Ceo).
Bluebox Asesores, was born from the dream of supplying the need for personalized and reliable attention to the small expat community that inhabited the “Santa Ana de los 4 Ríos” almost a decade ago, Carlos Ramirez decided to found his broker in the heart of the city with a modest office ready to provide the best service, With the passing of the years, his brand has become one of the ten best in the city for its quality and fair prices. As his brand grew, his office moved to the Monte Carlo Building, a spacious office with new collaborators that would allow the service to be optimized and grow to reach the largest number of expats in the city of Cuenca.
Our clients trust in our brand and our work, we are a broker that since its inception thought only to provide the best service for this wonderful community that is growing in our country, we are proud of our customers, because of them today we are recognized among this community, for our agile, personalized and guaranteed services, our claims are paid in a maximum of 10 days and when they are denied by the companies we direct our clients to other options such as administrative claims within the Ecuadorian regulating entity of private insurance companies, the “Supercias” in Ecuador support all insured in private companies that have inconveniences with their reimbursements. In addition to that our services go much further, we provide assistance in all the procedures that the expat community requires such as: registration of vehicles, affiliations in external companies, mediation with other brokers and more, all these services are provided to the community in general regardless of whether they are already our clients or will be soon.
At present we have remained in the ranking of the best brokers nationwide, and maintain business relationships with the best insurance companies in the country, we are the only broker in the city with its own products for the expat community always thinking about their benefits and improving their quality of life with convenient prices and high coverage.

Lots of new things and returning products at Luvimar Gourmet Market
Hello Everybody. I hope you’re doing amazing. I got exciting news. Please read it until the end.
First, Korean fish sauce (500 g $12) and Gochujang (500 g $12.50) are back. The fish sauce I carry now, is made with anchovies, so it’s more concentrated which allows you to use less.
The gochujang now comes in 500 g presentation, instead of the 250 g I used to carry.
New products.
Kimchi in two varieties, cabbage or daikon. Also, Kerala style spicy green mango relish, which is used as a great side dish in Indian cuisine. $5 each.
Last but not least. Chocolate, and not just any chocolate. You won’t find this chocolate anywhere else in Cuenca yet.
Kamm, a new socially responsible Ecuadorian brand, working with the Chachi community in Esmeraldas, paying them a fair price for fine aroma cocoa to make a revolutionary chocolate with lyophilized and crystalized elements. You could say it’s chocolate with crystals. 85% cocoa, organic, vegan, keto, sugar-free, non-gmo, bean to bar. You have to try them.
Three varieties available right now. Big mango, ginger lemonade and salty caramel. New variety with hemp seeds coming in the next couple of months, but for now you won’t regret trying the other 3. $5.35 each 60 g bar. It’s worth it. You can try a little sample first at my store.
Sorry for the long message. Have a great day.

1,808 new cases of COVID-19 this last Sunday in Ecuador
The report reiterates that the Andean province of Pichincha is the one that accumulates the highest number of infections with 100,480 positive cases, which represents an increase of 364 in the last 24 hours. It is followed by the coast of Guayas with 36,351 infections, 312 more than on Saturday, and surpasses Manabí (20,529), Azuay (17,367), El Oro (12,625), Tungurahua (10,216), Loja (10,345), Imbabura (8,618), Cotopaxi (8,127), Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas (7,818), Los Ríos (7,577) and Esmeraldas (6,077).
The problem is that Ecuadorians do not make good use of the mask or use non-approved masks. They care more about what a good mask costs than their own health. According to the World Health Organization, KN95 filter masks are still the most suitable to prevent the spread of the deadly virus.
I am Andrés Guillermo, distributor in Cuenca and Azuay of KN95 masks with filter, made in the USA. These masks are not the ones sold in Shopping Centers, they are masks with sanitary registration, laminated and with high protection. Its use is comfortable, it avoids dizziness, headaches, fogging of lenses or glasses. They are lightweight and are placed behind the ears, but above all 100% safe and reliable. I sell them by unit or box of 20 masks. Contact me at 099 647 2877, WhatsApp or call me.

About Jan: Considered by many to be a “World-Class” massage therapist, Jan Wallace has been performing massage therapy since her original licensing by the Oregon State Board of Health in 1983. She has studied almost every massage technique out there, and over the course of 30 years, blended the best-of-the best into her own massage style that’s an incredibly relaxing, therapeutic, invigorating, and an almost “spiritual” experience.
She can perform very light to very deep tissue techniques, and encourages the client to express their preferences, so she can create a custom experience for them.
Regular price: $40 for 90 minutes
New client’s first visit is always $10 off this price, therefore $30
Schedule at: LuzVitale@gmail.com
Testimonials:
“I highly recommend you experiencing a massage with Jan Wallace, an excellent masseuse. I cannot give her enough accolades. Being the physically active woman that I am, I have had many massages in my lifetime and she easily ranks in the top 1%. No kidding. Give her a try. You’ll be so happy you did.” Eve Donald, Cuenca cuencabutterfly@yahoo.com
“Jan gave me a fantastic massage. Her apartment is easy to find and the massage room is very spa-like. She’s easy to communicate with and makes sure you’re comfortable at all times. I highly recommend her.” Sandy Brown, Cuenca sandynbrown535@yahoo.com
“I had a great massage experience with Jan. She listens to your needs and pressure preference. The atmosphere is quiet, comfortable and relaxing. She is conveniently located. I would highly recommend a massage from Jan.” Adrien Winger, Cuenca gatawinger@gmail.com
“I had overstressed a muscle in my back last week and was in a lot of pain. Jan lives in the same building as I do so I called her and she was able to fit me into her schedule. After 90 minutes with Jan, the pain was gone! I was hoping simply for the pain to lessen, but it was totally gone. Needless to say, I think she is great and highly recommend her!” Linda Chase, Cuenca
“I had three or four massages with Jan while I was in Cuenca a few months ago, just after she opened. I would second the comment above about having had many massages in my lifetime and the fact that Jan is in the top 1%. I’m a retired medial professional and can’t wait for my next visit with Jan.

Delicious coffee taste and aroma in the morning?
There are two varieties of coffee trees, Arabica and Robusta. Arabica-type coffee is considered Premium and produces beans with the best flavor. Arabica coffee beans require very special conditions to grow. The coffee tree is highly susceptible to diseases and pests.
Once Arabica coffee is grown under ideal conditions, it must be processed correctly to bring premium coffee to your cup. Manual harvesting is important to ensure that only the reddest and ripest coffee cherry trees are harvested and used in the process. After being harvested, the coffee beans must be dried in the sun before being roasted by the experts.
I am Andrés Guillermo, the only distributor in Cuenca and Azuay of 100% Arabian coffee, grown and harvested at 1,300 meters above sea level, in the province of Zaruma. I have roasted coffee in two presentations: ground and beans, 450-gram bags so that you can make your breakfast or afternoon coffee a delicious experience in your mouth. Contact me 099 647 2877 WhatsApp or call.

To use masks with high efficiency, doctors ask for variants of COVID
“The mask becomes a fundamental piece for you to work, do your activities. You need something that fixes your face well, the only ones that fix well are the highly effective ones ”, says Washington Alemán, physician-clinician and expert in infectious diseases, who considers it vital that citizens try to use a good mask at this time. that guarantees adequate protection.
Vulnerable groups such as the elderly, people with pre-existing diseases, catastrophic diseases and others at risk should use a highly effective mask, such as the KN 95 type with filter to improve their breathing.
In the case of masks that guarantee high protection, such as type K95 with filter FFP2, FFP1 (the last two, European versions), among others, only one mask should be used. Not two, the experts quote. Nor two surgical at the same time.
I am Andrés Guillermo, authorized distributor for Cuenca and Azuay of these masks, imported from the USA, comfortable, light, adaptable to any face, their use does not cloud the lenses, they can be used by children or adults. I sell them by unit or by box of 20 units. Laminated to avoid manipulation. Contact me WhatsApp 099 647 2877 or call me, free home service.

· …learn topics of Ecuadorian and Latin-American culture, history, foods, arts, music, etc.
· …learn to handle conversations in different situations, such as, giving directions on a taxi, shopping at different stores, making a doctor’s appointment, , etc.
When can I start?
You can start anytime.
Where are the lessons given?
They can be given online (SKYPE or ZOOM).
Can I come to the School in Cuenca?
Sure. We’re at 16-63 Mariscal Lamar, between Miguel Velez and Miguel Heredia. We’re in the north of Cuenca downtown. Just ring the doorbell at the door and you’ll be very welcome.
How long does this program last?
It lasts three weeks.
What should I do to start my immersion program?
Before you begin taking this Immersion Course, you will be interviewed to know your interests in topics you would like to discuss and talk about during this course. You will also have to take a placement test, which is free, to know your level of Spanish, so we can prepare a lesson plan for you and your partners.
Will I really learn to understand and speak Spanish?
Sure, you will! We’ve been teaching languages, Spanish included, for almost 20 years. Your Spanish will be enhanced in record time.
How do I pay for my lessons?
You can pay cash.
You can deposit or wire money to any of our savings accounts (Pichincha, JEP or Guayaquil)
You can pay thru PayPal with Xoom, a PayPal service.
What did participants say about our lessons?
“We got a small group of friends together who were frustrated in our mutual lack of advancement in Spanish after 2+ years in Cuenca. CCN’s approach to teaching, patience and encouragement has provided a fun environment in which to learn. In just a few short weeks, most of us have learned and retained more than other classes and online teaching.
We love our experience and look forward to each week’s class that is opening up a whole new world for us.”
“I am very pleased to recommend CCN’s Spanish teachers here in Cuenca. I have been taking private lessons from them for the past four weeks now and I continue to look forward to each new class with them. I am a naturally inquisitive individual and I like to ask lots of questions. I have previously taken group classes elsewhere but would come home frustrated, because I would rarely get the opportunity to have more than a few of my questions answered. The concepts I needed to understand were being left as a mystery to me. This is not the case with CCN’s Spanish teachers. They are amazingly patient and also very flexible. They always allow me to focus or redirect my private lesson toward the things I would like to learn. When I first met with them, they spent an hour with me free of charge, assessing my incoming Spanish abilities. Each subsequent class has been based on working from my current level and helping me improve. I really like the fact that they always type out our conversation on their computer screen as we are talking. I am a very visual learner and when I can also see on their screen what we are discussing, it really reinforces the entire learning process. This also means I do not need to take notes but can concentrate on the speaking/listening aspects of the learning process. When I get home, the notes which they created during our class are waiting for me in my email inbox. Now how cool is that? I can go back over everything we talked about in class as a review, at my leisure.”

Recommendations from participants:
“Thanks to attending the language school “CCNations, Escuela de Idiomas” I was able to pass the Ecuador citizenship written and interview exams, and will soon become a naturalized citizen. With their homework materials and instructional classes, my level of Spanish increased to where I could study, learn, and pass these essential subjects: the history of the tri-color Flag (“la bandera”); the Coat-of-Arms Shield (“el escudo”); the National Anthem (“himno nacional”); the important battles, persons and events for gaining Independence; and the primary Presidents of Ecuador. These study materials include bilingual booklets and guides, flash cards, simulation tests (from the official examinations), and multiple practice sessions.
Classes can be scheduled on flexible hours for individual sessions, or with small groups of other students. Additionally, this private 18-year language school can also help applicants to pass the examinations to obtain a drivers’ license (“Licencia de Conducir”). This is one of the top language schools I have ever attended!”
Recommended by Bartley
“My success in passing the test on my first attempt was primarily due to CCNations, their time, efforts and patience in guiding me towards success. I really couldn’t have done so well without them. For this reason, I highly recommend this school to anyone who needs help with Spanish in any capacity.”
Lynn

You are not alone. Helping hands is there for you
Enjoy your time while we take care of your groceries, medications, IESS bills, you name it.
We get your groceries, your medicine or run your errands Sunday through Friday from 8 AM to 6 PM.
We all wear face masks and gloves.
We are already helping some expat friends, former and current Spanish students who are very grateful for this service.
Our service has 3 simple steps:
(Please, when making your shopping list, think of one or two week’s worth of groceries)
Step 1. Send us your exact address (location where you want to receive your groceries) as well as your shopping list (if needed, include pictures of difficult items to find) through email or at our WhatsApp number. (New: You can also place or tell us your order over the phone)
Step 2. When groceries are delivered to your place, you can either…
• Pay cash to HHs (Helping Hands) representative who will deliver your products and whose id and photo will be sent to you.
• Deposit or wire money to any of our savings accounts (Pichincha, JEP or Guayaquil)
• Pay with credit card/ debit card, Visa or MasterCard (some commissions take place)
• Pay with PayPal (some commissions take place)
In any form of payment, include:
• transport fare (from Supermaxi Las Americas to your place and from there to our place downtown), which is usually $4 or $5, depending on the place you live.
• $0.50/$1 for boy/girl (supermarket packer)
• Please, also include, a love offering for HH.
Step 3. HHs will monitor the shopping from the very beginning till you receive everything ordered.
“Good Morning. Helping Hands’ service was amazing. They are extremely kind and helpful. They messaged when they had a question and were very helpful! They did a great job getting all items that were available on my list and helped me carry them up to my apartment and were so thoughtful and everything was in perfect condition. Even the ice was still totally frozen! Perfect! Oh, yes, I am already spreading the word of your wonderful service and I so appreciate this help.
Mary
“We have used many delivery grocery systems during the quarantine. Like many reading this recommendation, we are in a high-risk group and just don’t want to risk going into a grocery store right now.
So, for what it is worth, we can wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Helping Hands to do your shopping and all errands. They supply a very detailed set of instructions, which are readily available on GringoPost. If you put their name in the search bar on top of the page their ads will appear. We submitted our grocery ‘wish’ list and they told us when they would be shopping and who would be handling it.
During the entire process we were updated constantly, they informed us of items that were out of stock and sent us pictures via our smartphones of what was available as possible substitutions. They can do this via WhatsApp or whatever way you prefer. We always knew where they were in the process, they even told us when they were approaching our building so we could be ready with our cart to upload our groceries.
It was the easiest, most professional and safest shopping process we have encountered, here or in the States. They offered multiple forms of payment and even brought change with them. They fully disclosed all costs up front, and gave us the receipt asking only that a donation be made to the church to continue their work with the poor.
The minimum ‘love gift’ is suggested at $10 for households.
We were so impressed and grateful that we offered more. Why? Because they use these offerings to feed and support our community, it just seemed right.
It is times like these that you actually do yourself and our community a favor. There is a double benefit of employing a professional group to do your shopping and errands, who donate their profits to feed the poor in Cuenca. It is beyond a relief and it is a heartwarming feeling.
I always hesitate to give recommendations because sometimes success is fleeting. So, on Monday I gave them another assignment. My Instant Pot broke several weeks ago and I was able to find another supplier for it in Loja they were able to ship it to Cuenca, but only to the central Servientrega office. I asked and for a small fee they provided a temporary power of attorney letter, identification for the person picking up the package at Servientrega and delivered it to our home. So, two interactions and two successes. We will definitely use them again.”
Doug
“This is a top-notch organization that shops and delivers groceries to your door. HHs Team (Helping Hands) made this such an easy experience checking frequently with me by What’s Apps to be sure the products I wanted were correct. They also double checked with me several times while at SuperMaxi and the pharmacy with photos from the items on the shelf in case substitutions were needed or several choices were available.
They were thorough, pleasant, responded quickly to email, and items were delivered in full the day after I contacted them.
I will continue using them and highly recommend this service.”
Simply the Best.
Linda
“Helping Hands is a true gem. Their shopping service at this time is a lifesaver. They shop carefully and make sure your order is correct. If they are unsure or need to substitute they will WhatsApp or call to be sure it is correct. They have taken care of our banking and bills. Trustworthy, timely, and makes the whole process easy and efficient. Do yourself a favor – make your life easier call HelpingHands. You won’t be sorry.”

Feeling adventurous? Want to do it your way?
Remember that another long weekend is coming up in a month and it would be a good idea to reserve early for the Easter weekend. Good Friday, April 2, is a national holiday here and there are many activities that occur on this 3-day weekend. One suggestion would be to worship with local congregations around Cuenca or to celebrate the Resurrection on Easter Sunday with a village congregation and experience the joy. Or, do whatever strikes your fancy that weekend.
Whenever you want to travel on your own and see the sights of Ecuador with yourself as the chauffeur, guide, and driver, call on me to schedule your car from Cuenca Car Share. If you want to form a group and go together, I can help you there, too. Reservations required.
Insurance is always included for you (free) and, depending on the length of the rental, we may offer free kilometers too.

Mule/Carrier service From USA to Major Cities in Ecuador
Hi Expat Community, I’m offering a new mule/ courier service from USA, to major cities in Ecuador, like Cuenca, Salinas, Manta, Quito, Guayaquil, etc. via packaged courier. Could be clothes, shoes, sneakers, lamps, spices, vitamins, kitchenware, pots and pans, etc. Or anything Legal. Please do not request anything illegal like guns or drugs. Unfortunately, no cell phones. Used laptops are OK.
This is how it works: you tell me what you need and I buy it after you deposit in my account or you buy it online and ship it to my address here in New Jersey 07093. I’m a prime member on Amazon, but you can buy anywhere like Macy’s, Best Buy, Home Depot, Target, etc. Once it gets here you pay for the shipping and it will get to your city in Ecuador within 10 – 15 days for you to pick up. FYI in my locality there’s no tax on shoes and clothes, everything else if I buy in person, tax is only 3.5%. If you or I buy online, tax is 7%. I will send you a receipt.
To give you an example I just bought a house in Salinas and Cuenca and furnished my 2 homes with sheets, towels, smart faucets, smart front door locks, kitchenware, LED lamps. Any tech that you may not find or, is too expensive in Ecuador, I’ll ship it to you. I also helped my friends and collaborators with this offer for the past 5 years and I decided to help the Expat community as well.
If interested please email me or WhatsApp or text me. I’ll answer any questions or concerns regarding price, payment or any other questions you might have. You have many choices of payment in Ecuador via transfer or teller, to my account in banco del Pichincha or banco del Austro. In the US via deposit or transfer to my Chase checking account (You must have a Chase account to deposit cash FYI) thru Zelle, PayPal, Venmo. I will need your full name, your address in Ecuador your cell # and your Cedula #. The Ecuadorian customs requires this info, when your package arrives to your city. The shipping company will text you to retrieve it. Quick reply and tracking of your goods.
Now the most Important Issue you may have? Why should I buy it, ship it to his home and I’ll never see him again or won’t reply? I truly understand the skepticism and distrust, I’m here to help you, I’ve been here for almost 45 years. I own my home and rental properties here in NY/NJ and Florida as well as in Ecuador, I’m also about to retire back home in the next 2 years and I understand when I get down there with my wife it’ll be a bit different and would hate to travel back just to get some new tech or whatever every time if I can’t find in Ecuador.
With that said, I can only say that you can trust me. I’ve learned the culture of honesty, punctuality, respect to others that this great country has taught me, Thanks for your time.

Problems with internet, phone, electricity, water, healthcare bills?
I can take a look at your current internet or cell phone plan and see if there is a cheaper alternative. I am not a health insurance agent and do not represent insurance companies, but if you are having difficulties in communicating with a private insurance company and your agent isn’t being helpful, I can advocate on your behalf to get the health care benefits that you have paid for.
Internet and cell phone service providers periodically lower their monthly charges for internet packages, but existing customers must ask for the new, lower prices to receive them. Otherwise, the company will keep billing you at your originally contracted rate. Some ETAPA water customers are suddenly receiving bills of $90 or more after months of paying the normal $12-$15.
Do you need an advocate to fight for you in the event of billing errors? Do you just need someone to call your internet provider to report outages or slow internet or to request that a repair team come to your house to check the connection? I am not a technology expert and do not troubleshoot internet problems, but can help you with dealing with the internet provider to report slow internet or internet outages.
I recently assisted a same sex couple to JEP who were having difficulty opening a joint bank account (the U.S. marriage certificate was not accepted). I accompanied them to the Registro Central to get their marriage registered in Ecuador, and we then returned to the bank to open the joint bank account. The constitutional law in Ecuador has changed but sometimes businesses and banks have not yet updated their procedures to reflect the new law. My law school classes covered LGBTI legal matters in Ecuador and I am happy to assist expats with LBGTI questions.
I charge $10 an hour, but if it takes more than two hours to resolve your problem, there is a discount of 20%, to $8 an hour (so four hours would be $32). If we need to travel in person to an office and a taxi is needed, that will be extra (but is usually minimal). Let me be your advocate!
I will come to you, or we can meet in Cuenca. To be determined by mutual agreement
