"Expats in Crucita often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as Spanish is the primary language spoken and not everyone is fluent in English. The slower pace of life can also be a challenge for those accustomed to a more fast-paced, structured lifestyle. Additionally, adjusting to the local customs and etiquette, such as the importance of personal relationships and the concept of "Ecuadorian time", which often involves a more relaxed attitude towards punctuality, can be difficult. The lack of certain amenities and conveniences that they might be used to from their home countries can also be a challenge. Lastly, dealing with bureaucracy and red tape, especially in relation to legal and property matters, can be a significant challenge due to differences in laws and regulations," remarked another expat who made the move to Crucita, Ecuador.
