Hello everyone,

I've moved to Panama 3 years ago and I live in the city. In my 3 years of being in Panama, I've had the chance to explore different sights of the country, from beaches to mountains and I sincerely LOVE Panama! I've been working with a tour and activity website with recommendations and travel experiences that are great to do in many places around the world, but of course in Panama too. I hope to keep exploring more of Panama and share with you my experiences here, perhaps you can join to some of the tours I plan. If you feel interested on the website I'm currently working on, it is Tiqy and you can find many tours and activities to do in Panama here. Also I would be glad to answer some questions you might have about Panama.

All the best to everyone!

Hi Jennifer,

I'll be visiting Panama in November...no fixed date.
My plan is to apply for temp then permanent residence status, which is handled by Denfab in PC.
During the month there I want to travel the country to get an idea of where to settle down when I return in a year.

Is there any way we can converse privately?

Thanks
Ilona

Hello everyone.
I am a newby and looking ahead for my pre-retirement MOVING to Panama.
My wife and I live in NYC for over 25 yrs, we are Brazilian, but need to stay closer to the USA as our only Son will be out of college and living in the US when we retire.

Our retirement is still quite far (another 10 yrs), but our plan is to buy a property in the next 6 months and start enjoying the place as a vacation home for now.

We lived in Haiti, West and East Africa, Brazil and NYC, so I guess there will be no problems living in Panama at all.
Cheers to all,
ONELOVE
