Tranquilo House is peaceful, relaxing, warm host, very affordable. Ellen is a wealth of information on tour activities. I came with my family (wife and two young children). Ellen was very gracious and friendly with them, even took them on a nature walk! We were looking at future properties and schools in the area and this was the perfect, affordable solution. I recommend this to any budget traveler, and would be perfect for small groups of backpackers.

OK Ellen: That is the kind of info I need to make an informed decision(s). I have read thru your responses and attachments and taken notes. Great Job!! I can't believe that some
people actually do this without performing any due diligence. Back to you soon. Thank you for your effort and attention. -Anonymous

Hi Ellen,
I feel I was fortunate to have met you. You were able to direct me well in Panama, from seeing the city, staying in a great hostel and giving good advice on fares for taxis. I loved the San Blas Islands and wish it would of worked out for a longer stay. I will be in touch the next time I come to Panama.
Thanks for all your wonderful suggestions.

Just a note to thank each of you for all of your work on, what we consider, a very informative and enjoyable conference. Also, so appreciate having recordings made available to us, as there certainly was more information than we could assimilate in three short days.
Presenters were awesome . . . Al Fine is a given. Ellen Ring has invaluable information needed by all and is concise, gracious and super informative, Bob Bauman is down-to-earth and emailed specific information that I needed . . . I could go on and on. We are meeting ongoing with Ellen and feel comfortable with the level of information and assistance she is giving us. Had it not been for IL, we would not have found her. We talked to Margaret Summerfield, Rainelda Mata-Kelly and others during breaks -- which at times were very, very crowded. Our wish was that the room opened at 8AM instead of the same time as the talks were starting. We hope to see these people at the Sovereign Society conference next week, which we are staying over for.
Many thanks,
Bob and Nancy Betcher

Hi Ellen,
I think you were the most practical speaker at the International Living Conference with a real can-do personality.
We wish you lots of luck with future engagements and will keep you on the email list for future "hot news"
best regards
