So I’m from New York but I’m in El Salvador right now at my airbnb in antiguo cuzcatclan as I’m typing this . Thank you for giving such an informative and balanced opinion on the country. Everyone I’ve talked to here has noticed and felt a big positive change when it comes to security and safety , and the statistics speak for themselves . I have a trail of star tattoos on my chest and I was walking around shirtless in surf city and at my hotel palo verde and no cop was looking at me suspiciously thinking I was a gang member 😂. I find it ironic that Canada warns it’s citizens that they may get killed if they come here when on a daily basis there are mass shootings in the United States yet they don’t warn their citizens about going to the United States . Another thing I’d like to point out is the decreased number of Salvadoran citizens that migrate to the US . If you look at the number of asylum seekers coming to the US, they’re mostly from Haiti , Venezuela Nicaragua and Cuba .I think that’s indicative of the economic and safety progress the country has been making . I went to some waterfalls today at tamanique and I just looked around thinking how much this country has to offer . I feel like El Salvador is this unknown hidden gem that’s just starting to get discovered. I’m looking to make this place a semi permanent residence in the near future . Thanks again for your confident and I love your dog 🐕🦺
Thanks for telling the truth on this topic. I don’t know who is writing those articles posting a warning ⛔️ as such ? All I hear from tourists is that El Salv is an amazing tropical country to visit. It’s just getting better everyday! I can’t wait to visit it and eat delicious pupusas 🫓 yum 😋
Hi mate.. Im in Peru..thinking seriously about moving to El Salvador.. The bitcoin currency is a big plus for me. Im looking to live in a small town on the coast...sounds like a very hospitable place with good locals. How much cheaper is it living as you do rather than in a bigger city?.. .Salud ..
SALVADOREÑOS HERE IN USA ARE NOW CONSIDERING TO MOVE BACK TO E.S , TO HELP WITH THIS CHANCE THAT IS HAPPENING IN EL SALVADOR RIGHT NOW , EVEN SALVADOREÑOS BORN HERE IN USA WANTS TO MOVE BACK TO EL SALVADOR TO OPEN UP BUSSINES, BETTER OUR ECONOMY !! I"M SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS CHANCE !! I PERSONALLY CAME USA 🇺🇸 WHEN I WAS 6 YEARS OLD MY INTIRE FAMILY IS MOVING BACK TO EL SALVADOR IN 2024 TO OPEN UP A BUSSINES!!!!! I LOVE EL SALVADOR 🇸🇻1😉😉
Two people in paradise thank you for taking the time to give the information to the day of the country there is a small group of politicians who are not happy for the improvement of the country for obvious reasons but thank you people in paradise for trusting and believing in our people who were exploited by the bad rulers but no more and you are already part of our
The globalist, their media full o corruption, Human rights organizations are against Bukele just because his fixing the country of El Sal. Watch out what kind of media people read.
For sure , I have Latino friends from other Latin American countries who try to sorta one up El Salvador and talk about their country whenever I mention some of the things that are changing here , It comes off as jealousy
I am from Germany and I am also jealous. The politcians and media in Germany and the EU are doing everything possible to destroy everything we have achieved over the last 80 years
Thanks for the truth from a Salvadoreño whom moved to El Salvador in September 2022 after 37 years in the USA. To this day I haven't been stopped by anyone in El Salvador.
It's a great idea to have that advisory travel clarified by yourselves to those Canadians and other people who are thinking about travelling to El Salvador to enjoy our climate, beaches, volcanos, coffee, and especially our friendly-welcoming people!
Sadly just two days ago... 10 people were gunned down some miles away where I live in Los Angeles... And it's so normal in USA... You won't see a travel advisory from any country to USA.. The hypocrisy..
Hi guys, I am from El Salvador, living in California , USA since 1981. I am so glad that you let the people know that some countries are painting a totally different picture about life in EL Salvador. Thank you.
I'm taking your recommendation and will be checking it out for myself in June after over 35 years of living in the USA. I'm going back for the first time, and I'm sooo excited!!!🇸🇻🇸🇻
Hi- we have a house in Atami for 10 years. As much as I am concerned about human rights, the state of exception has been successful. The beaches have usually been safe, for as long as we have been here. Glad that you are doing this
Thank you Jessica and Ryan for clarifying to those watching some of those concerns pointed out on that travel advisory; I must repeat what Alex García said in your comments “You are great Salvadoran ambassadors certainly one of Us.
I think I read that back in the 70' when the tourists had to be informed of the dangerous visiting the country. That information is not updated. Thank you guys for being transparent letting us know that the country now is different.
Thank you for clarifying some of this issues that many people may not take the time to really inform themselves and my over look El Salvador for a vacation. Other countries have always concentrated on the bad things of El Salvador when it hasn’t been that way. I been going to El Salvador seems 2002 and we never had a bad experience. We love El Salvador and will continue to go there. El Salvador continúes to improve and the Salvadorian people deserve this country to become what is becoming. Love my country.
Hi guys, enjoy watching your videos. when I hear you talk about high walls, razor wire, makes me reminisce my growing up years in El Salvador when none of that existed, we were free to roam the streets with friends until the wee hours of the day, climb trees to eat the fruit, until dinner time. when I returned after being out of the country for several years, it was shocking even to me to see high walls and razor wire (civil war years of course), watching your videos is refreshing I would call you pioneers and witnesses of the present transformation, seeing the country through a different lens, and who better than you who had no experience of the terrible past. This Canadian (and not only Canadian by the way) travel advisory is more a reflection of what they are experiencing in their own communities, blaming and critizicing others, makes them feel better about their own failures and shortcomings. Honestly you are an inspiration to many of us who choose to look the other way to what is going on in the world.
About the broken glasses glue to the backyard/front yard brink walls...I myself see it as normal since I grew up in El Salvador and our house had broken glasses around our 8' high fence back in the 80s. About women being harassed we call it "piropos." It doesn't bother me at all when a man whistles at me or tells me, "mi amor" or that I look good. I grew up in that environment. Of course, a foreigner may feel she is being harassed since she is not used to it. Great video!
I traveled to El Salvador in Oct 2022; I felt safe everywhere I went. Even went to some non-tourist areas and still felt safe, and the people where nice and helpful. . I have tats on my arms and I walked by police and soldiers; they didn't bother me. they know who they are looking for. Then I traveled back to Los Angeles, Ca, and I felt unsafe and kept my guard up everywhere I went
I have family in El Salvador who live in the small towns, and I myself just got back there and was absolutely inspired to see how much the country has changed for the better under the Bukele regime. There is a sense of optimism and hope for the future that I have never seen, I hear it from the locals I've talked to, as well as what my family says. Bukele isn't perfect, in fact there are things he is doing that I don't like, but you cannot deny that El Salvador is not the same country it used to be and I love it. All of these articles, and governments talking this nonsense needs to shut the hell up and let my family's country evolve!
Love the video blog!!!!!Thank you for making it clear to the rest of the world that El Salvador is like any develop country. I currently live in the US and travel twice a year to El Salvador and everytime I visit I noticed that the country is improving in safety, health care and the economy. Thank you President Nayib Bukele for loving and improving the lives of all Salvadorians.
I live in NY and take the subway everyday to go to work. I visited El Salvador in 2021 and I felt more comfortable there than here. I mean, the country has changed by a lot compared to previous years. I can’t wait to go back!
When speaking to Americans about ES, I always use the state of MD as a comparison. That's cause MD is similar in size and population. The capital San Salvador already has a violent crime rate less than Baltimore. 80% of the violent crime in ES occurred in only 15 of the 262 counties.
HAHA! THE WISTLE SITUATION. SO FUNNY. YES GUYS UNFORTUNATELY IT IS A CULTURAL THING WE HAVE ALWAYS DONE AS SALVADOREAS. AND IT DOES NOT WORK TO GET LADIES ATTENTION. AT LEAST NOT IN A POSITIVE WAY. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SOMEONE GETTING MARRIED FROM MEETING THRU A WISTLE. THANK YOU AND HAVE A NICE DAY!
Thank you for bringing this up, the president is doing this for the people who were in the shadows under criminal power for more then 30 years, finally El Salvador is getting the peace, that every country should have.
Mis hijos ni yo queríamos ir a Él Salvador pero con la nueva ministración del presidente Bukele mi presidente mis hijos fueron a conocer por primera ves El Salvador y vinieron encantados oy quieren ir otra ves y quieren tener ciudadanía Salvadoreña yo soy Salvadoreña vivimos en San Francisco California USA y aquí en la USA ya no es lo mismo de asé años las calles de la market y mission llenas de personas que duermen en la calle drogándose en la calle asen sus nesecidades fisiológicas y es una peste asta mercado ay en la calle de la mission 26 y 24 ventas de cosas robadas es terrible mucha gente enferma en las calles muchos son violentos uno anda con mucho temor cuando se suben a los buses porque andan con armas blancas navajas o otros objetos peligrosos Dios nos libre de todo mal 🙏
...you are witnessing first hand what is happening in my country and the world believe because you are politically neutral and so the truth flow easily specially coming from a couple male and female. Thank you from our bottom heart. From Australia.
Hello I live in USA but I'm from a small town in el salvador I travel every year and yes improvements is not on tourist areas only is everywhere! Yes there still some disrespectful man that would see a wamen and would flirt with them. And flirting to them is whistling blowing kisses, calling you Hot, mamacita , is normal to them , even though still make some of us mad and uncomfortable!
The problems with potholes in the north is winter, its the biggest factor. thats why roads in the north need to be maintained more. its done well here in Finland, but i have heard its bad in canada. tho, they do have more land to cover.
( IT'S ALL MISLEADING INFORMATION.) EL SALVADOR IS THE MOST SECURED, IF NOT THE SAFEST COUNTRY TO VISIT OR LIVE IN LATIN AMERICA and IT'S ONLY GETTING BETTER AND BETTER EVERY DAY AS THE COUNTRY PROGRESSES. WE WELCOME EVERYONE TO VISIT EL SALVADOR ! AND IT'S AMAZING BEACHES AND WARM WEATHER ☀⛱
The violence problems in Canada and USA are getting worse day by day and are mostly massive shooting. just a couple of days ago an old man 72 years old killed 10 people in Los Angeles. People mental health here is very compromised. And Biden or Trudeau, don't come with an acceptable solution. In El Salvador is the post war consequences. and the young boys got involved in the maras in Los Angeles schools and street. Very sad, but Bukele has to sacrifice this young delinquency. No choice.☀️🌊🏄🌋🇨🇦🇸🇻🙏🍻
Soon will be improve the county El Salvador,if government keeping work with force law,and never give up,for sure ,soon will be amazing Country in all about even good lifestyle. Just hi from Pennsylvania.!😍😍
Hi Guys do you know the new transit rules to ride vehicles and specially motorcycle and scooters ?You must wear a reflective vest when your driving a motorcycle, you can’t drive between the lanes (lane splitting) is not allowed anymore etc . There will be a lot of new rules in February to fix the problem with traffic accidents
The great criticism is the one of the beauties, but not the one of the faults. Meaning to say, it is easier to see what is wrong, but hard to recognize what it is good.
I think an important note is that Salvadorian police are the most honest and the most honorable on the continent and they're loyalty is to the country and their duties They're not their to extort turists or whatever foreigners might imagine Another thing is foreigners see barred windows and think they're ugly and meant to block out intruders , this is just the Spanish arquitectual style you can find in all Hispanic countries and Spain is one of the safest countries in the world with barred windows
Great job, guys! I appreciate your work. May I make a request? Could you please do a video talking about the water situation? You mentioned that your drinking water is bottled. Where does that come from? Are there safe wells? We're in talks with Jeremy and seriously considering relocation to El Salvador. Thank you!
Hi! Rather than make you wait for a whole video, we'll do our best to answer your question here. The challenge with water is two-fold: infrastructure and climate. As a tropical climate, everything thrives, including parasites and other infectious organisms that can survive in wells to incredible depths, and in rivers, lakes, etc. Due to the past several decades of corruption, criminality and gang rule, the infrastructure required to treat this water is either not in place, or is not especially sophisticated. Everywhere we've been, the water comes out of the tap clear and clean. There are no odors or discoloration. The tap water is safe to shower in, wash dishes in, brush teeth, fill a swimming pool with, etc., but for drinking and cooking, virtually everyone relies entirely on bottled water, as this water is guaranteed to be free from infectious organisms. We have seen some people rely on their own reverse osmosis systems instead, and indeed our first apartment had such a system installed, but the norm is bottled water. The bottled water is provided chiefly by a company called Agua Cristal. They have an extensive delivery network throughout the country, and bring five gallon jugs (like those for water coolers) to residential homes on a weekly basis. Each jug is $2.75. We leave our empties outside with the money, and they swap them out every Friday. Agua Cristal uses a proprietary water purification process called Hydropure. As it is proprietary, details on the process are scarce, but we know that it includes RO and UV. Agua Cristal is a member of several international drinking water associations, and also has a line of beverage products sold in stores. They also belong to a regional anti-corruption organization, and operate throughout Mexico, Central and South America. A new, modern water treatment plant is part of a $230 million development plan for El Zonte, and so upgrading the water infrastructure is on the government's agenda. Given the immense development happening here, and its rapid pace, we anticipate that the tap water here will be on par with or better than that of the developed world inside of this decade. Bottom line, you don't have to worry. The water situation here is different that you're used to, but it is under control. Also, in the event that you do pick up a worm or parasite, safe and effective medications for that are readily available at little cost and without a prescription (primarily nitazoxanide). Be sure to give Jeremy code PARADISEPPL to receive 15% off his immigration services! Also feel free to reach out to us on Twitter. Our DMs are open and we'd be happy to chat with you. Congratulations on your bold decision, and all the best!
Thanks for making this video to explain what's exactly is going on in El Salvador for those travelers out there. Actually I have been traveling more often to El Salvador since nayib bukele took office and definitely he is changing the entire country, i live in Atlanta GA and honestly now I feel safer in El Salvador than Atlanta GA US . Is like a miracle happening in El Salvador . Thank again and God Bless you guys for the effort you make showing what's true and false about the country
The statistics we quoted are already out of date! Violent crime is even lower here now, and even higher in Canada. The two nations are moving in opposite directions in virtually every aspect.
1) You can’t get detained for having normal tattoo’s, the authorities know who the gang members and their collaborators are, if your tattoos don’t read MS13 or 18st, then you have nothing to worry about. 2) Those volcano hikes most of the time include police officers and guides. 3) Yes, even neighborhoods once considered gang territory (like Tutunichapa, Soyapango, etc) who’s infrastructure was abandoned for years is now being fixed, so it’s not just tourist areas.
Right on! Show them what gang tattoos look like! Yes, beware of missing manhole covers (person holes?) Also the car drivers seem more likely to "give way" to pedestrians compared to CDA. Some vehicles have next to no lights at night and others are lit up like a CMas tree.
Tnak you guys, for being so truthful. and fare, There is a new traffic law in progress now for those drivers that they don;t undestand that El Salvador is changin.
Dont get me wrong I would still put razorwire it is not vestigial it is the fact that the understanding of human carnal nature has been instilled in the way that our family educates us so we do preventive security instead of reactive like guns
Hi, I been meaning to reach out to you. You mentioned twitter, but I also saw an email address you provided to someone else. What would be the best option? I would love just 5 minutes of your time for question on moving to El Salvador and to share bit of background. Thanks!
In El Salvador we are a militarist county it is one of our traditions It's not something recent because of the terrorism problem but part of our heritage since the inception of the country I'd say get used to it . I've followed every single speech every single tweet and word of our President since before the election and thank God our President knows our strength lays in what we know In fact last year the state was considering bringing back mandatory military conscription for youth although they didn't go through with it because many of the people didn't agree If it was up to me it'd be brought back immediately
Thank you, Both for this news about the work of President Nayib Bukele and the people that have strived to make El Salvador a better place for their citizens and visitors. It is sad to hear so much misleading news from such powerful countries, knowing the horrific past of El Salvador. Powerful countries at peace whose Information tries to destroy the President's hard work so that this beautiful country can't better itself.
Hi guys, just recently stumbled across your channel and am very happy about that! I'm going to move to El Salvador within a month, joining my girlfriend there. As for road rage: my girlfriend just send me a video, showing a US tourist who rammed with his pickup unprovoked an incoming native motorcycle rider...he was quickly detained and he looked like a crazy hippie from commie from commieformia
So I’m from New York but I’m in El Salvador right now at my airbnb in antiguo cuzcatclan as I’m typing this . Thank you for giving such an informative and balanced opinion on the country. Everyone I’ve talked to here has noticed and felt a big positive change when it comes to security and safety , and the statistics speak for themselves .
I have a trail of star tattoos on my chest and I was walking around shirtless in surf city and at my hotel palo verde and no cop was looking at me suspiciously thinking I was a gang member 😂.
I find it ironic that Canada warns it’s citizens that they may get killed if they come here when on a daily basis there are mass shootings in the United States yet they don’t warn their citizens about going to the United States .
Another thing I’d like to point out is the decreased number of Salvadoran citizens that migrate to the US . If you look at the number of asylum seekers coming to the US, they’re mostly from Haiti , Venezuela Nicaragua and Cuba .I think that’s indicative of the economic and safety progress the country has been making .
I went to some waterfalls today at tamanique and I just looked around thinking how much this country has to offer . I feel like El Salvador is this unknown hidden gem that’s just starting to get discovered. I’m looking to make this place a semi permanent residence in the near future .
Thanks again for your confident and I love your dog 🐕🦺
Thanks for telling the truth on this topic. I don’t know who is writing those articles posting a warning ⛔️ as such ? All I hear from tourists is that El Salv is an amazing tropical country to visit. It’s just getting better everyday! I can’t wait to visit it and eat delicious pupusas 🫓 yum 😋
And now almost one year after this video is even better. Believe me. We’re almost side by side with Canada on security and safety.
I live in the countryside and everywhere you go local people will tell you how things are way better and safe. Gracias por la verdad.
Hi mate..
Im in Peru..thinking seriously about moving to El Salvador..
The bitcoin currency is a big plus for me.
Im looking to live in a small town on the coast...sounds like a very hospitable place with good locals.
How much cheaper is it living as you do rather than in a bigger city?..
.Salud ..
SALVADOREÑOS HERE IN USA ARE NOW CONSIDERING TO MOVE BACK TO E.S , TO HELP WITH THIS CHANCE THAT IS HAPPENING IN EL SALVADOR RIGHT NOW , EVEN SALVADOREÑOS BORN HERE IN USA WANTS TO MOVE BACK TO EL SALVADOR TO OPEN UP BUSSINES, BETTER OUR ECONOMY !!

Two people in paradise thank you for taking the time to give the information to the day of the country there is a small group of politicians who are not happy for the improvement of the country for obvious reasons but thank you people in paradise for trusting and believing in our people who were exploited by the bad rulers but no more and you are already part of our
One of the things I noticed is that a lot of people from other countries are jealous of the progress of what the country is going through.
I thought the same thing.
The globalist, their media full o corruption, Human rights organizations are against Bukele just because his fixing the country of El Sal. Watch out what kind of media people read.
For sure , I have Latino friends from other Latin American countries who try to sorta one up El Salvador and talk about their country whenever I mention some of the things that are changing here , It comes off as jealousy
I am from Germany and I am also jealous. The politcians and media in Germany and the EU are doing everything possible to destroy everything we have achieved over the last 80 years
Thanks for the truth from a Salvadoreño whom moved to El Salvador in September 2022 after 37 years in the USA. To this day I haven't been stopped by anyone in El Salvador.
Also being prior Navy wife and I been to countries make El Salvador look like paradise
It's a great idea to have that advisory travel clarified by yourselves to those Canadians and other people who are thinking about travelling to El Salvador to enjoy our climate, beaches, volcanos, coffee, and especially our friendly-welcoming people!
I will say this, enjoy El Salvador right now,and the prices, because later on it might get a little pricey the more people moved there
Thank you guys for telling the truth about what is really happening in our country El Salvador, God bless you greatly, El Salvador is your home now.
Sadly just two days ago... 10 people were gunned down some miles away where I live in Los Angeles... And it's so normal in USA... You won't see a travel advisory from any country to USA..
The hypocrisy..
Thanks Two people in Paradise for explaining and clarifying the real situation in El Salvador.
Thank you for watching!
Hi guys, I am from El Salvador, living in California , USA since 1981. I am so glad that you let the people know that some countries are painting a totally different picture about life in EL Salvador. Thank you.

I'm taking your recommendation and will be checking it out for myself in June after over 35 years of living in the USA. I'm going back for the first time, and I'm sooo excited!!!🇸🇻🇸🇻

Thank you soooo much for showing and telling the real truth about El Salvador ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for watching!
Hello guys, very good analysis of what is happening here in El Salvador, thanks for loving my land so much. I hope to see you soon.
I have family in El Salvador who live in the small towns, and I myself just got back there and was absolutely inspired to see how much the country has changed for the better under the Bukele regime. There is a sense of optimism and hope for the future that I have never seen, I hear it from the locals I've talked to, as well as what my family says. Bukele isn't perfect, in fact there are things he is doing that I don't like, but you cannot deny that El Salvador is not the same country it used to be and I love it.

I currently live in the US and travel twice a year to El Salvador and everytime I visit I noticed that the country is improving in safety, health care and the economy. Thank you President Nayib Bukele for loving and improving the lives of all Salvadorians.
I live in NY and take the subway everyday to go to work. I visited El Salvador in 2021 and I felt more comfortable there than here. I mean, the country has changed by a lot compared to previous years. I can’t wait to go back!
Im from houston tx and im Mexican.....it makes me feel good seeing the people from there living better peaceful
Thank you very much for clearing all that information, you were right on point!
Thank you for clarifying this article , you guys are a blessing to El Salvador👏
Good information. Thanks .
Thanks for keeping the information real from your side
Thank you. Good balance info.
When speaking to Americans about ES, I always use the state of MD as a comparison. That's cause MD is similar in size and population. The capital San Salvador already has a violent crime rate less than Baltimore. 80% of the violent crime in ES occurred in only 15 of the 262 counties.
HAHA! THE WISTLE SITUATION. SO FUNNY. YES GUYS UNFORTUNATELY IT IS A CULTURAL THING WE HAVE ALWAYS DONE AS SALVADOREAS. AND IT DOES NOT WORK TO GET LADIES ATTENTION. AT LEAST NOT IN A POSITIVE WAY. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SOMEONE GETTING MARRIED FROM MEETING THRU A WISTLE. THANK YOU AND HAVE A NICE DAY!
Thank you for bringing this up, the president is doing this for the people who were in the shadows under criminal power for more then 30 years, finally El Salvador is getting the peace, that every country should have.
Mis hijos ni yo queríamos ir a Él Salvador pero con la nueva ministración del presidente Bukele mi presidente mis hijos fueron a conocer por primera ves El Salvador y vinieron encantados oy quieren ir otra ves y quieren tener ciudadanía Salvadoreña yo soy Salvadoreña vivimos en San Francisco California USA y aquí en la USA ya no es lo mismo de asé años las calles de la market y mission llenas de personas que duermen en la calle drogándose en la calle asen sus nesecidades fisiológicas y es una peste asta mercado ay en la calle de la mission 26 y 24 ventas de cosas robadas es terrible mucha gente enferma en las calles muchos son violentos uno anda con mucho temor cuando se suben a los buses porque andan con armas blancas navajas o otros objetos peligrosos Dios nos libre de todo mal 🙏

Hi Guys do you know the new transit rules to ride vehicles and specially motorcycle and scooters ?You must wear a reflective vest when your driving a motorcycle, you can’t drive between the lanes (lane splitting) is not allowed anymore etc . There will be a lot of new rules in February to fix the problem with traffic accidents
As new comers if stopped, I’m sure they will be granted a free tickets. But for local drivers they should know better.
Very well exposed and explained. Well done, I’m happy that foreigners are also helping in getting the truth out there.
The great criticism is the one of the beauties, but not the one of the faults. Meaning to say, it is easier to see what is wrong, but hard to recognize what it is good.
I think an important note is that Salvadorian police are the most honest and the most honorable on the continent and they're loyalty is to the country and their duties
They're not their to extort turists or whatever foreigners might imagine
Another thing is foreigners see barred windows and think they're ugly and meant to block out intruders , this is just the Spanish arquitectual style you can find in all Hispanic countries and Spain is one of the safest countries in the world with barred windows
Great video!!!!!!
Started following y’all since your move to El Salvador and thank you for sharing. Greetings from CDMX/Austin TX. 💚🤍❤️/💙🤍💙
Great job, guys! I appreciate your work. May I make a request? Could you please do a video talking about the water situation? You mentioned that your drinking water is bottled. Where does that come from? Are there safe wells? We're in talks with Jeremy and seriously considering relocation to El Salvador. Thank you!
Hi! Rather than make you wait for a whole video, we'll do our best to answer your question here.
The challenge with water is two-fold: infrastructure and climate. As a tropical climate, everything thrives, including parasites and other infectious organisms that can survive in wells to incredible depths, and in rivers, lakes, etc. Due to the past several decades of corruption, criminality and gang rule, the infrastructure required to treat this water is either not in place, or is not especially sophisticated.
Everywhere we've been, the water comes out of the tap clear and clean. There are no odors or discoloration. The tap water is safe to shower in, wash dishes in, brush teeth, fill a swimming pool with, etc., but for drinking and cooking, virtually everyone relies entirely on bottled water, as this water is guaranteed to be free from infectious organisms. We have seen some people rely on their own reverse osmosis systems instead, and indeed our first apartment had such a system installed, but the norm is bottled water.
The bottled water is provided chiefly by a company called Agua Cristal. They have an extensive delivery network throughout the country, and bring five gallon jugs (like those for water coolers) to residential homes on a weekly basis. Each jug is $2.75. We leave our empties outside with the money, and they swap them out every Friday.
Agua Cristal uses a proprietary water purification process called Hydropure. As it is proprietary, details on the process are scarce, but we know that it includes RO and UV. Agua Cristal is a member of several international drinking water associations, and also has a line of beverage products sold in stores. They also belong to a regional anti-corruption organization, and operate throughout Mexico, Central and South America.
A new, modern water treatment plant is part of a $230 million development plan for El Zonte, and so upgrading the water infrastructure is on the government's agenda. Given the immense development happening here, and its rapid pace, we anticipate that the tap water here will be on par with or better than that of the developed world inside of this decade.
Bottom line, you don't have to worry. The water situation here is different that you're used to, but it is under control. Also, in the event that you do pick up a worm or parasite, safe and effective medications for that are readily available at little cost and without a prescription (primarily nitazoxanide).
Be sure to give Jeremy code PARADISEPPL to receive 15% off his immigration services! Also feel free to reach out to us on Twitter. Our DMs are open and we'd be happy to chat with you. Congratulations on your bold decision, and all the best!
Thanks for making this video to explain what's exactly is going on in El Salvador for those travelers out there. Actually I have been traveling more often to El Salvador since nayib bukele took office and definitely he is changing the entire country, i live in Atlanta GA and honestly now I feel safer in El Salvador than Atlanta GA US . Is like a miracle happening in El Salvador .
Thank again and God Bless you guys for the effort you make showing what's true and false about the country
The statistics we quoted are already out of date! Violent crime is even lower here now, and even higher in Canada. The two nations are moving in opposite directions in virtually every aspect.
1) You can’t get detained for having normal tattoo’s, the authorities know who the gang members and their collaborators are, if your tattoos don’t read MS13 or 18st, then you have nothing to worry about.
2) Those volcano hikes most of the time include police officers and guides.
3) Yes, even neighborhoods once considered gang territory (like Tutunichapa, Soyapango, etc) who’s infrastructure was abandoned for years is now being fixed, so it’s not just tourist areas.
Gracias. ⚡️
When the new bitcoin city is open are you all planning to move there? & How is Spanish learning going?
Right on!
Show them what gang tattoos look like!
Yes, beware of missing manhole covers (person holes?)
Also the car drivers seem more likely to "give way" to pedestrians compared to CDA.
Some vehicles have next to no lights at night and others are lit up like a CMas tree.
I live in Los Angeles California and there's a lot of homeless people and places that are not safe to walk at night
Tnak you guys, for being so truthful. and fare, There is a new traffic law in progress now for those drivers that they don;t undestand that El Salvador is changin.
Dont get me wrong I would still put razorwire it is not vestigial it is the fact that the understanding of human carnal nature has been instilled in the way that our family educates us so we do preventive security instead of reactive like guns
Hi, I been meaning to reach out to you. You mentioned twitter, but I also saw an email address you provided to someone else. What would be the best option? I would love just 5 minutes of your time for question on moving to El Salvador and to share bit of background. Thanks!
Twitter is the best way to make contact! We are working on a new means as well, as not everyone has Twitter
Hello 👋
See you soon bud!
In El Salvador we are a militarist county it is one of our traditions
It's not something recent because of the terrorism problem but part of our heritage since the inception of the country
I'd say get used to it .
I've followed every single speech every single tweet and word of our President since before the election and thank God our President knows our strength lays in what we know
In fact last year the state was considering bringing back mandatory military conscription for youth although they didn't go through with it because many of the people didn't agree
If it was up to me it'd be brought back immediately
Thank you, Both for this news about the work of President Nayib Bukele and the people that have strived to make El Salvador a better place for their citizens and visitors. It is sad to hear so much misleading news from such powerful countries, knowing the horrific past of El Salvador. Powerful countries at peace whose Information tries to destroy the President's hard work so that this beautiful country can't better itself.
Very helpful... thank you
I think of the two of you as Salvadoran now... you two are not Canadians anymore
We feel the same way. The Canada we grew up in is unrecognizable.
It is perfectly natural to flirt with women in all Latin/Romance cultures
Women will be almost 100% whistled at and called pretty etc
El Salvador has bad urban planning in majority areas, and bad public transportation
Don't worry B coin city is coming soon are you ready 😉
@@josealeman3348 So only bit coin city gets access to better urbanization but the rest of the country stays the same? 🤣 Kinda elitism
Urra
This is Canadian propaganda .
God bless you good people
Hi guys, just recently stumbled across your channel and am very happy about that! I'm going to move to El Salvador within a month, joining my girlfriend there.
As for road rage: my girlfriend just send me a video, showing a US tourist who rammed with his pickup unprovoked an incoming native motorcycle rider...he was quickly detained and he looked like a crazy hippie from commie from commieformia
Thank you so much guys 💖
