If you have time, watch the full video to have in-depth insights about moving to El Salvador
Background
Tom and his family moved to El Salvador as medical refugees. They were looking for a place where they could access medical treatments that were not available in Canada. During their two-month visit, they fell in love with Bitcoin Country and decided to make it their new home. They were attracted to the country's natural beauty and the warm hospitality of its people.
Attractions
One of the main attractions of El Salvador for Tom and his family was the legalization of Bitcoin. El Salvador is the first country in the world to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender, which has attracted many Bitcoin maxis, and some cryptocurrency/shitcoiner enthusiasts that need to be rehabilitated, to the country. Additionally, the country's natural beauty, including its beaches and volcanoes, was another selling point for Tom's family.
Perception of El Salvador
Before moving to El Salvador, Tom and his family were nervous about gang violence in the country. However, their perception of the country changed after spending time there. They found the people to be warm and welcoming, and they felt safe and comfortable in their new home.
Typical Day
Tom's typical day in El Salvador involves homeschooling his children, working online, and enjoying activities like surfing and gymnastics. The family has found a supportive community of expats and locals who share their interests and values.
Opportunities for Children
Tom sees many opportunities for his children's education and cultural experiences in El Salvador. The family has been able to explore the country's rich history and culture, and they have made many new friends from different backgrounds.
Challenges
One of the biggest challenges that Tom and his family face in El Salvador is the high import taxes. This has made it difficult for them to bring in some of the items they need for their daily lives. Additionally, some companies continue to require the use of masks to employees, which is frustrating for us to see.
Best Part of Living in El Salvador
For Tom, the best part of living in El Salvador is surfing. The country's warm waters and consistent waves make it a surfer's paradise. Tom has been able to improve his skills and meet other surfers from around the world.
Conclusion
El Salvador has become a popular destination for Canadian families escaping their country's dictatorship and seeking a new home. Tom and his family were attracted by the legalization of Bitcoin, the country's natural beauty, and opportunities for their children. While there are some challenges the thriving family has found a supportive and like-minded community and a new home in El Salvador.

Which city in the el-salvador does tom live in now?
reply
He lives on the beach area, 15 minutes from El Zonte, aka Bitcoin Beach. Not sure if he wants to publicly share where exactly so I'll keep it generic.
Anyway I have lots of info about El Salvador and the Bitcoin lifestyle on my YT channel and Twitter, and also we have a couple groups of like-minded expats and local that are a trove of information πŸ‘‡

Thank you, lots of Canadians disillusioned with the state of affairs here.

Can you name off what these things are? It might be profitable to manufacture these things within the country.
reply
The current government is already working on it. Legislatively and logistically. Few month ago I went to the hot springs with family visiting and we drove by the new manufacturing area. We were blown away 🀯
It's hard to see and understand from the outside how this country is blowing up πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡»πŸš€

Big if true

Bukele has a track record of getting things done, so I'm very bullish on El Salvador. Plus I see the progress every week. Incredible! πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡»πŸš€
