We're from the US and we've been living in Ecuador since 2017 so it's natural and acceptable for us to compare these two countries to others that we visit. Including Portugal.
Plus, lots of our viewers are considering both Ecuador AND Portugal as a place to live abroad. That's why they requested this video and why we recorded it.
Ecuador is NOT a 3rd world country. That's an outdated term that no longer applies to ANY country. It's a developing country with a lot of potential.
Portugal may be a developed country, but it reminded us a lot more of Ecuador than we expected, which makes this comparison video even more relevant.
There are several things that we really like about Portugal, but also several things that we prefer about Ecuador.
So in this video, we compare Portugal and Ecuador headtohead on 10 factors that matter most to expats who are weighing their options for a place to move abroad. And the winner might surprise you.
