Theyfd never even visited Ecuador before, but Brittany and Blake Bowen, from the United States, decided to move to the South American country in 2021 to give their four children a completely different upbringing.
The Bowens, who were previously based in the state of Washington, have been living in Loja, a small city based in the southern section of the Andes Mountains, ever since, and say that they are in it for the long haul.
gWe love this little country,h Brittany tells CNN Travel. gWe hope that maybe wefll have grandkids here one day.h
Before the move, the couple, whofve been married for nearly 17 years, say that they were becoming increasingly concerned about the pressures placed on children by gmodern American societyh and wanted to try something new.
gWe did not like what wefd seen develop over the course of the last couple decadesch adds Brittany, explaining that they felt that young people in the United States were becoming gmore isolated.h
gWe werenft confident that our kids would enjoy the same sort of potential trajectory that previous generations had shared.
gAnd the more we considered things like that, the more we wondered, eIs that even what we want? Do we even want them to be on a fast track to the American Dream?h
The couple were also frustrated with living what they describe as the gstandard American life.h
gLong commutes and never enough money,h says Blake. gAll those usual problemsc I was working in a career that was very time consuming, and took me away from home a lot. So we didnft want that anymore.h
So why did they choose Ecuador as their gnew homeh?
