Carmen, Sometimes folks who are interested don't post and contact the OP directly. Indeed it is a generous offer. One thing that is very important is that the group be compatible with the owners.
Recently we had someone from Avalon come stay and it did not work out. Another person wanted to come and given what he said about himself again it would not work. It takes time to sort out who would be a good fit for this type of particular situation.
On one hand I'm interested and could see this as a possibility. Ecuador is a possibility. Many places are a possibility. Yet the actual task of pulling up roots and moving to another area is huge. We've done it once. When we moved here from the mainland we left a 40 foot container there buried in the mountain. That was a back-up plan should the need arise. However, given all the volcanic activity here on this island I feel a bit uneasy and am unsure what to do. It takes time to get re-established somewhere new. And the accomendations at this site are still a bit unclear. Meaning is one starting over from scracth building a place to live? That takes time and money.
There are a number of open-ended questions to be answered prior to making any decision of this magnitude.
I did notice something ironic as my cousin's name is Lee John and the OP is John Lee.
