Many thanks,

This is Agnetha, a very polite and sweet dachshund needing a home immediately. The people who abandoned her threw her out of a moving car in a garbage bag. My name is Deni and I brought her to my studio. The owner does not allow pets and I don’t have the economic resources to take care of her either. This is because I am trying to regain custody of my 7 and 8-year old daughters. For this reason, emotionally I can’t be responsible for Agnetha either. She urgently needs a home.
Please help for Agnetha 099 509 5380

I would like to find out when Millenium Plaza movie theater will show the Jurassic Park new movie. Can I see this movie in English or with subtitles? I think it comes out in June.
Thank you so much.

I haven’t seen this topic discussed for a while. Perhaps it will help future expats.
I wanted to buy the cheapest multifunction pressure cooker AKA Instant Pot, primarily for its Yogurt function. I bought the Brentwood Easy Pot at Juan Eljuri for $111. What I failed to do is to look at its reviews on Amazon, which were few and 4-years old, but documented exactly the problems I encountered. This unit wasn’t defective, the product was defective, particularly the Yogurt function, and Brentwood couldn’t care less. A big complication was the yogurt making detailed instructions were only in the English section, not the Spanish or French section.
We prefer to trust the content we read here as coming from our fellow expats that we’ve never met in person but we’d like to think of as “honest folks”. However, newcomer expats hear from the old timers the stories about a very sketchy Canadian expat who founded a Cuenca charity that is still operating after he fled the country, along with other tales of expats being perp-walked out of a Gringolandia highrise (“X was nice, quiet and kept to himself”). Unfortunately, my 30 years in a technology career have taught me to have the right amount of wariness and employ best practices for safety online.
Not everyone can read Spanish, but I have a useful app on my phone that can take a photograph of something and instantly translate into English. Here is an example. This might be useful if you have friends visiting.

I rent an unfurnished house far from the prime neighborhoods in Cuenca. Recently I asked my abogado to inform the homeowner, who bought the house as rental income, that I wish to renew a lease for another year at the same rent. When I moved in, the owner was reluctant to repair inexpensive cosmetic damage done by the family of the previous owner, repairs we expect as part of preparing the property for its first tenant. I took that as his stance that he was not going to put money into this property beyond unavoidable repairs. I accepted a security system that no longer worked and he claimed he could not afford to replace. I spent my own money doing low-cost upgrades to things like ceiling lights. I deposit my rent into his bank account.
(more…)The Carmen del Guzho church wants to inaugurate a dining room and food program for 40 poor, elderly people who will be served lunch from Monday to Friday, for which they need tables, chairs and a refrigerator. The church, led by Father Enzo Amato, has been working for more than 100 years helping families of the Turi parish.
Any donation and help we will be very grateful.
