Since the first time I went to El Salvador in 2007, I fell in love with El Salvador.

I fell in love with the lifestyle, because people were just happy and enjoying their lives. Life in El Salvador was/is slow pase, even when people are working.

I fell in love with El Salvadorian people who are the kindest, warmest and giving people. They are so welcoming and always, always willing to help. El Salvadorian people are very respectful and that includes the young generations, which have a total respect for the adults and teachers etc.

The weather in El Salvador is just the perfect weather for me, since I am always cold and that is why I don't like winter or the snow, especially since I am not a skier or go snowmobiling.

Health was probably one of the biggest reasons why we moved to El Salvador, withthe sun and the Vitamin D that the sun provides for us, which in Canada we don't get enough of it. The amazing tropical fresh fruits like coconut, mango, avocados, papayas, pomegrante, bananas, plantains, anonas and all the other amazing tropical fruits are packed with all the incredible nutrients. And not just the fresh fruits that you can also grow in your backyard very easily, but all the fresh foods that El Salvadorian people consume daily.

People didn't eat frozen foods and quite few people in El Salvador didn't even have a fridges to keep their food for days. Now it has changed a bit with frozen foods in the stores and all these fast food restaurants etc, but majority of El Salvadorian people still only eat freshly cooked foods everyday.

I also love the culture and customs of El Salvador because they are very similar to my Polish culture and customs which I really missed while living in Canada.

These are just a few of the reasons why we fell in love with El Salvador and why we moved here. But the main reason was to live a simple, but happy life.

I will share more about why we left Canada, the differences between Canada and El Salvador, other things that we love about El Salvador and things that are hard to get used in El Salvador etc. So stay tuned🙂

That's a big move! Hope you will enjoy the new place to call home from now on :)

Thank you @gabrielatravels. It sure is a big and the scariest move we made, so I hope it will all work out this time.

The area in which we live has a great influence on our mental health, many believe that what they need is to live in an area where there are more shopping malls, movie theaters and so on. But honestly, something as simple as a good dose of vitamin D can change our lives.

I am so glad you have decided to live a simpler life prioritizing joy over comforts or material possessions, el salvador sounds like an amazing place. I loved reading you.

Wow. Thank you so very much for your amazing comment and support, since most people are not very supportive of our decision, since like you said yourself, people love the city life and to them it feels like we are going backwards, so it feels really good when people like yourself understand and support our vision.
So thank tou again @jemimal1996

Fancy meeting someone like myself who doesn't like the cold. From your pictures, the atmosphere looks just like the Nigerian weather plus nothing beats freshly cooked meals, it literally keeps the doctors away.

Yes. I am always cold, so I really don't like the cold and love the tropical weather. It's great to see more people like yourself who also doesn't like the cold.
I totally agree with you on how important fresh foods are. It sure keeps the doctors away.
Thank you @bipolar95 for your lovely visit🙂

You are welcome and Indeed it's fascinating to meet one like you 🤗
