Eloquent lady and speaks beautifully. She strikes me as a school teacher or maybe a nurse. I'm sure she had a professional background of some sort. Icould listen to her all day. 🥰

A very STYLISH, classy lady. I just left Ciudad de Panama last week. I did receive my temporary cedilla, and found a real COOL spot, in Ciudad de Panama. I'm in Cali, long enough to clear stuff out of this apartment. I've LOVED my country for 63 years, it hasn't LOVED mr back. Goodbye a.m.e.r.i.K.K.K.a. Hello Panama.

I'm Jamaican born🇯🇲 and have had distant relatives who came to Panama to help build the canal, some moved on to neighbouring Costa Rica

Very informative and well articulated as well. I plan to be in Panama in March 2022 and would like to communicate.

Visiting in 2022 , rainy season. Hopefully covi doesn’t lock countries down again beginning this winter 🙏🏽. I visited a few years ago (wife & I). Love it! Looking forward to exploring more of Panama City and the surrounding areas.

Being I Louisiana and have lived in Plano tx I loved hearing this interview. Thank you!

Cool! I live in the DFW area now, I've been thinking about coming to Panama as well as a couple other Latin American countries.

Excellent video.

I so enjoyed your video and felt you offered a great amount of information. I am traveling to Panama on January 10th in hopes to fall in love with it and then plan my move. This has been a work in process for several years for me. I plan on going to Panama then to David and Boquete. If the shoe fits I am wearing them !! Happy New Year. And much happiness to you classy lady !!

Thanks for offering to help others who are trying to move there. I may take you up on this and will bring you some purse size seasonings. 😉

Thank you for a very informative video! I'm trying to decide between Colombia and Panamá. Hopefully, I'll get to Panamá in 2022.

Hi, Mario the best places to live in Panama Via Argentina, Vía España, Via Brasil, and Paitilla are the best places to live under $750.00 a month. It helps a lot if you speak Spanish. I have been traveling to Panama for 12 years it's okay. There are some things I don't like about Panama. After 7 months I start getting cranky.

Thank you for your feedback about moving to Panamá. I’ve been doing a lot of research about this moving and as always I negative site...Am about to retire and Panama is on top of my list.

This is so awesome!! By the way, you speak and outline all the details that people want to hear! And who knows, that could be my next stop! Thank you for this, my elegant friend!!

Hi Sandra. Was nice very nice to meet you. Thank you for sharing your story. Quite interesting. I am currently visiting Panama and I was planning to stay longer but I found Panama kind of greedy and tourist unfriendly so I am leaving by the end of March. I don't like to be discriminated just because I came to visit. I 63 years old and I don't feel like to pay 10$ for seeing Panama Viejo while citizen of Panama can do it for 2,50$. Next thing 5,25$ for only 250$ withdraw. Excuse me? Just sharing 🤔. Thank you again and all the best to you.

Hello Saundra, I appreciate your comments on several levels. The Panama City area residence, lack of difficulty living there and not speaking Spanish, benefits of living in an area where you do not need to own a car. When we visited Panama last year, we visited Coronado, David, Boquete. We are returning next month and plan to explore residential communities within 1-1 1/2 hours of the airport. I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you more in planning our next trip there. Hopefully you will respond to me. I am also on Facebook. Hope to connect with you soon. Thanks, Ola

Thanks for this wonderful video. I love Panama City. If you know the traditional Panamanian restaurant 'El Trapiche' has a serious signatue hot sauce.🔥After a delightful meal, I asked my waiter if they sell it & he produce a case smiling "how many would you like"? I block away up Via Argentina, El Caribe specializes in Delicious Jamaican Caribbean Panamanian delicacies & they serve pepper sauce on the side. The owner Maritza is a wonderful contact. I just subscribed & I will reach out to you in future when I've organized things.

One most important thing is the medical . I would advice if you do plain to relocate anywhere in the world . Don't move if you have a medical condition . Panama have problem getting some medications. And pray and hope you get a doctor who cares. But you can find a doctor from the American embassy website. For women to do the GYN is another story . Just keep your doctor in the USA . Until you find the right one for you in Panama.

When you say the “city center” approximately where do you mean? Which neighborhood ? I plan to move to Panama summer 2022 and am interested in Panama City, Especially a walkable neighborhood. I have been on a Panama tour once but most of the time was spent in Boquete ( which really isn’t for me). Will be coming again in Jan and seeing more of Panama City etc.

Lived here 22 years. The BEST walkable neighborhood (place to live) is San Felipe (Casco Viejo) period. Second choice, El Cangrejo.

Sandra, I enjoyed the info you provided. I am interested in visiting Panama and maybe moving there. I am single and retired and I think Panama City would ideal for me. May I contact you if I have additional questions or concerns regarding Panama City. I would definitely appreciate it. Richard

I’ve been researching cities in Panama to retire to and doing a relocation tour, but I’ve realized I really want to live in a walkable neighborhood. Which neighborhood is City Center in and how can I get more information about the process of getting a retiree visa and renting, etc. Hoping to meet you in Panama!

Great video! Thanks to the author of the channel for this fascinating video! It is interesting to see how people live in other countries! It is very important to know foreign languages on such trips. I would like to recommend to all travelers a practical guide to learning foreign languages by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages". This book contains a lot of useful tips on how to learn a foreign language for tourists, students, entrepreneurs and anyone who needs a foreign language in life. There are a lot of good tips on how to solve problems with the language from beginner to advanced level of language learning. It turns out that the traveler only needs to know a few dialogues and you can easily travel around the world! You don't have to spend a lot of time to fully learn a foreign language, you just need to learn what you can use when you travel. I wish everyone exciting travels!

Helpful info and thanks for offering to help others. I'd like to visit Panama and I welcome your guidance and contacts. How should you be contacted please? GRACIAS.

The friendliness of the locals is exaggerated. Animosity towards Americans is common. There is a history of violence between the two countries due to The Watermelon War of 1856, The Riots of Jan. 1964, and the 1989 invasion which led to the capture of Manuel Noriega in which hundreds of Panamanians were killed. The history of these events are drilled into kids heads in all schools from a early age.

What areas of Panama city would you suggest to live in?
