  • Volcan is in the Chiriqui province and considered to be the 'bread basket' of Panama as that is where most of the agriculture is produced. After 14 months in Coronado and Gorgona, I realized the beach climate is too hot for me day-to-day. I'm doing a housesit in Volcan and will look for a place to live.

    I really like your attitude and also how you value the little things, Panama is the country where I was born and I had not realized that it was so beautiful, thanks for your videos. I am also thinking about when I retired, returning to live in Panama, have a blessed day day 🌹

    The trash situation is so annoying. The government offers no trash removal on certain areas and people pretty much picked a spot where they dump their trash. The crazy thing to me is that those businesses that are past the dump haven’t team up to clean the area and maybe put more pressure on authorities to do something about it...aNd maybe they have. I am Panamanian and trash situation is sad and embarrassing 😢

    • @Pattybluehayes
      @Pattybluehayes  4 года назад +4

      ravicasi Wow, I didn’t know trash pick up wasn’t even offered in some areas. I do hope it will improve, and that more people will embrace recycling 😊

    • @ravicasi
      @ravicasi 4 года назад +2

      PattyBlueHayes I hope so too. There are so many issues: 1. Educating the population 2. Trash pick up 3. People too poor to pay for private pick up. Panama is a rich country, the only reason there is no money is because corruption is so high that all the money gets stolen. Anyways, the positives for me outweighs the negatives so I hope to move back sometime in the future. Thank you for showing the beauty of my country and people, we will get there 😊

    I'm from Panama and thank you for showing the reality including that guy actively throwing out trash on the side of the road. I would have confronted and challenged him and/or called the authorities or photographed his license plate. That was disgusting! I'm fighting the same darn thing in New Jersey where I'm currently staying due to covid. The community decided to organize and do some cleanup, which is good. But that doesn't stop the trash throwers in the woods, even with Forest Rangers with eyes on the backs of their heads. Some people are just pigs. Plus its easier to litter than to clean up the litter. But its also easier than one would think not to litter.

    When you see sites like the one you showed where people started dumping trash on the side of the road let the proper authorities know about it, so they can take legal actions against violators. I am very tired of seeing unscrupulous people trashing our environment.
