Why we really left Boquete... by AuntieFlo
It's my turn to write about what happened. It is helping me to deal with the anger and the loss. We had such high hopes when we came to Panama. We wanted to live simpler, lower-cost lives. We also hoped to build something here, something that would ...

Hi, and you're welcome. Yes, I've read the ignorance--it's pitiful- but, I'm glad the indigenous people have pride and don't bow down to menacing expats. I see you're looking at Costa Rica. Have you been there or Panama? Read More
