She, her husband, and 2 dogs landed in Quito 4.5 years ago and since relocated to La Libertad on the south coast of Ecuador. They own and operate a resort and spa vacation rental business steps off Cautivo Beach. During her personal Ecuador journey, she discovered a new passion and a new direction. Dodie is now spearheading various projects for disadvantaged families and children. Her perspective of life on the coast is unique as she ventures away from the typical paths of the expat population and shares in the lives of some of the most vulnerable. She came for all the typical expat reasons; she stays because Ecuador has touched her soul. To connect with Dodie info@casablancaplayacautivo.com
