I'm looking at country after country and I keep coming back to Panamá. No matter which country I'm looking at, everyone says they're in the best place for them. I just don't know. Everyplace looks good to me. 🤔
Only YOU can decide which area is best for you and your needs. I spent 18 months visiting 10 different countries to decide that Panama was best for me!
LOLL @ She's cheap to keep. Lovely sense of humour. I bet it's much cheaper, spacious, slower in a good way, therapeutic, etc, than Hong Kong. Enjoy your retirement.
Hey friends! We love your house and look forward to seeing it again but this time also meeting all your pups. By the way, we have four now as well. Panama really does something to you dog wise, doesn’t it?
With global upheaval and inflation it's good to see you made it to Panama. Best to find your sanctuary before things go south, in this case going south is good but you know what I mean. Can't wait to get to Panama, just need our ducks in order!!!
Hi 👋 Thanks for the vids! Question... a US citizen, Can I come for 6 months, leave and come back after a certain amount of time, does your time start over?
You can be a tourists in Panama for 180 days. Then you need to leave for 30 days before you can come back. That's called a border hop. You can do 1 border hop per year.
We also have 5 dogs (4 chihuahuas and a boxer mix) and are considering a move to Boquete/Volcan area in the next 3 years. I have worried that we would never find a place to rent with 5 dogs. This gives me some hope.
I'm Canadian born Chinese (speaks English and Cantonese), and I'm researching possible places to retire early :) I'm just wondering what it's like in Panama for Asians; are there any recommended communities/areas?
There are >200,000 Chinese in Panama (5% of the population) many are 3rd or 4th generation. They live everywhere. I don't think there is a "Chinatown" anywhere in Panama, so I wouldn't base where you choose to settle based the Asian population.
