    Great video. Thank you.
    I'll be retiring in the US in 2 months. I'm planning for retirement in Panama in 2025. First a 2 month tour in December 2024. The Volcan area is at the top of my list as my future home.

    Great video but "WORD OF CAUTION" I am an American physician who owns a farm outside of Boquete. Please consider getting Panamanian Major Medical insurance. You can get insurance very reasonably in Panama and nobody knows what the future holds. BTW, Punta Pacifica Hospital in Panama City is great. It is affiliated with Johns Hopkins Medical School in USA. I recommend going there for major health issues.Stay well!

    This is a wonderful couple's story. One of the things I think PRT should ask the people that move into a certain area is about Internet service and its reliability, up and download speeds. They can answer this question just like they do the medical experience questions. Keep up the good work PRT!

      Does not matter how fast the internet is if you have no power living in the countryside. Many people forget that Panama is in Central America. Power outages are very common here. Further away from the big cities like Panama City and David you will experience power outages more regularly. For hours! Longest I had to live with was 13 hours in the Las Tablas area. And if there is no power- there is no water! Yes. 1st time in my life I started to buy this big water bottles Americans are use to. And if there is no power for longer than 4 hours you lose cellphone service because the towers run on battery. If you can live with this- welcome to Panama!

      This is not completely accurate. In Panama City some hospitals offer health insurance with no age restrictions. But other hospitals do not have that a hospital specific plan.
