I am coming to Cuenca very soon to live for two months as somewhat of a trial run for possibly living there long term in a few years. I'll be studying Spanish as well. While I have read lots of blogs and sites about Ecuador, yours is the one I have enjoyed the most and the one most responsible for my excitement about getting to Cuenca. I would really, really be honored if you would allow me to buy you both dinner one evening at whatever place is your favorite in Cuenca! I get to town on February 14, 2016 and am free any evening after that. You can reach me at justspringer(at)gmail.com if you like and then we can make a plan.

I am glad that you have found this BLOG ...Hi Heidi,<br />I am glad that you have found this BLOG a helpful read and inspiration for your planning process to move to Cuenca. WELCOME to this beautiful city that is now our new home! Congratulations on finding your "WOW" dream apartment too. How cool is that? <br /><br />The name of the furniture store is: Vera Vazquez Muebles on Esteves De Toral 10-46 y Gran Columbia. Hopefully, they are still there. There are MANY amazing furniture stores around Cuenca, so shop first until you find that WOW place and service. I know prices have gone up since we purchased our "muebles" - but you are sure to find some good deals if you have patience. Also, check out GringoPost and GringoTree for deals from those leaving and returning to the states. I found lots of great deals like that as we started over. Keep it fun and best to you as you settle into your new home and city.<br />LindaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03218571411311922097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8831951504205975496.post-79930650307964281432015-09-13T01:10:52.466-07:002015-09-13T01:10:52.466-07:00Linda and Bo,

I hope things are going well for you, and missed your posts for a while and worried about you. I am in my "temporary" home and have just found my dream apartment- "Wow"moment and all. <br />I am preparing to move in the next month, and am wondering if you could give me the name or location of the huge furniture store you shopped in when renting your first unfurnished place. I won't need too much to start, but will need something of everything.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826318259173252832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8831951504205975496.post-35647167729447715642015-07-19T18:14:25.945-07:002015-07-19T18:14:25.945-07:00Welcome to my Blog, Yoan and Lila.

Don't ever give up on your dream(s). That is when they don't come true. If Cuenca continues to call, then follow your heart(s) and go for it. You can always return if it doesn't work out. If you don't try it, you will never know. That's my two cents. <br />LindaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03218571411311922097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8831951504205975496.post-50732951728941846442015-07-15T19:58:57.364-07:002015-07-15T19:58:57.364-07:00Hello!

And why in the world would anyone want to risk losing the best tenants a landlord could possibly want? On another note, my dream of ever getting to Cuenca keeps slipping further and further away. Life is like that sometimes.<br />Regards,<br />Bob (and Cathy)AnotherBobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17485845664097020324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8831951504205975496.post-53989808997013657562015-06-08T10:29:50.955-07:002015-06-08T10:29:50.955-07:00Hi Alena,
