She's trying to get her life situated there.

Unfortunately, though, when she moved there,

which is about a year ago now, that's when all that shit started going off in Ecuador, right?

With the gangs and the stuff in the street and the cartels and everything.

well yes yes yes and no yes and no so it's still ecuador has now turned into the new transportation hub right for a lot of the drugs that are going into spain and europe and like this is a completely different podcast you know a different interview well i was gonna say is it ecuador where they made that massive prison and just went swooped and swooped up everybody

So a lot of

The older generation are still worried about the states, still worried about Canada, still worried about Central America, the Caribbean.
