"....On day two (kitties STILL sequestered under the bed), we begin the herculean task of buying things to outfit our unfurnished home in Bahia de Caraquez. Bahia (the beautiful seaside city where we plan to live while our home at Coco Beach Village is being built) has limited shopping, so we have a long list. And we’re starting from scratch. We only have three days, and those three days must include an appointment with our attorney, a meeting with our architect, and the purchase of a cell phone. How to accomplish all this in three days?!
Pablo. Pablo is how we accomplish this in three days. Pablo Prado is not only an Ecuador tour guide, photographer, and translator with over 20 years of experience, but he is also a logistics expert who can get you anywhere at anytime. He can handle any problem with finesse, check off all the things on your list, and still manage unhurried meals with coffee at great restaurants. Part of his secret is preparing ahead of time. With e-mails shooting back and forth between us, he set up appointments, mapped out the stores we needed, and worked out the best deals for shopping and transporting our things to Bahia. Because Pablo knows pretty much everybody in Quito and Bahia—or knows someone who knows someone—he is able to get things done right.
