Hope you enjoyed the video. Were you surprised at all the things available in David?
As a davidian, thank you for putting my city and one of my plazas here, it's our aim for shopping
We are coming on a tour in Feb 23 and we can't wait!
Steve, that's great!! We look forward to showing you how amazing life is in Panama.
Your videos are always great! I always forward them to folks looking to migrate to Panama.
Thank you!!
As it is suggested that folks moving to Panama not bring a lot, how about a vid dealing with folks who make furniture, clothes, etc.
Plenty of furniture makers. Good idea to do a video.
I am very impressed with your video. I was there in Panama in August, I stayed in Panama City.
Thank you! Glad you enjoy our videos!!
Loved the video. Thank you. Do you happen to have a similar one of Santiago? I was unable to find one when browsing your channel.
I lived in Baja, near Ensenada, and I can tell you Panama has got Mexico beat in so many departments.
Panama is AMAZING!
In what way ? I'm leaving in December to head to Baja . But I lived in Mexico previously and the food in Panama plain out sucks
@@chelleroberson3222 although I haven’t been to Panama, it seems generally a lot safer than Mexico. Like I would feel safe traveling alone as a woman there, whereas I do not feel that way in many parts of Mexico. I have kinda changed my mind since I wrote that comment. Panama is getting too expensive for me. I just vacationed In Mazatlan and had a good time on very little money and the food was great. So...
@@sbdreamin spents 6 months last year in dreaded Sinola and don't believe everything the American government preaches
@@sbdreamin mazatlan is great right ?
Thank you for this really good and well made information.
But there is a lot more in offer. The variety of offer generally is really amazing (food, cloths.....) and I'm astonished about, how accurate and cleaned most of the shops are. Cloths are modern and very sheap, woman's paradise. 😉
I took all my effectives from Europe to Panama, but would really not recommend it. It is not worth.
There are MANY more shopping opportunities in David and even more in Panama City. We just showed you a few so you could get a general idea of what's available
When is a REBA SMITH going to come to Chiriqui?! Paleeze!
Good question. I hope soon
Saw video while visiting Panama, went to David, this info was super helpful!!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video!! Thank you🥰
Thanks for watching!
I'll have to see for myself.
You'll be amazed!
is there a music store in David? One that sells musical instruments and accessories?
There are a few around David..
Yes, there are several music stores in David.
Yeah, there are lots. The one I used (guitars, trumpets, saxophones, etc) was just off the Inter-Americana along the road to the old police station (they've now torn that down but ask someone and they'll know which road you mean). If you go along that road from the Inter-Americana highway it will be on the left about 500-1,000 yards down (that is, if they haven't moved). They were there 2 years ago when I was last there. But there are many others around so no worries there.
Can you get by in David with english? Can you hop an air conditioned bus easily to go to any of the malls? I don't really want to drive there.
Are there any english libraries in David, with thousands of fiction books? Cost to rent a furnished 1 bed 1 bath condo? With electric and internet included preferably, as i understand otherwise that you could be without both for a week or two.
rentals in David do no include electricity usually. Some people would run their electricity all the time which would be a huge bill. You can take a taxi to the malls but most buses do not go to the mall. There are no English libraries in David. The Boquete library has a small selection of English books. The Boquete handicap foundation sells English books
I❤️🇵🇦
Beautiful country
Thanks for such a great video! Do you know of any bike stores and how easy it would be to purchase an eBike (or if bringing mine would be best)?
There are bike stores in David and yes, you can even buy an ebike in David.
It's not CityMall, it's actually Mall Chiriqui.
It's actually two malls in one. One side is City Mall, the other side is Chiriqui Mall.
super vidéo , pour ceux qui s'installent près de David comme moi à Dolega. Mais , où trouver de la nourriture biologique ?
I am going to Panama in August 2022 would I be able to get good quality bath towels and sheet sets there?
Yes, you can buy very good quality bath towels and sheets. Look at Stevens.
When buying big ticket items like fridges, stoves and furniture, do the stores offer delivery or does the person buying the product have to arrange that?
Yes, all the stores offer delivery.
Do the furniture & large appliance stores offer delivery and set-up?
Yes they all offer delivery and set up. It's usually $25 extra unless you live far away from town
Also, any furniture you buy they will deliver it and set it up for you ... not like in Canada, USA or Europe at all. When I bought all the furniture for my unfurnished apt in Panama City, it was all delivered and for an extra $10 they set everything up as well. The workmen were there for 6 hours ... and it was $10 for the ENTIRE 6 hours for all 4 of them. (Of course, this was back in 2006 so, with inflation it might be $25 now. But still well worth it!)
Is David a good place to live? Is it very hot?
Yes. David is HOT! It's the hottest city in Panama actually. However, I lived in both Panama City for a couple of years and then moved to David for the last 6 years I was there. P. City gets rain at around 2 pm everyday and it ends at 4 pm. The problem with this scenario is that the sun is still up for another 2 hours. So as soon as the rain stops, the Humidex pushes the temp in P. City really high (it's still only 30 C but it feels like 40-45 C!). Whereas, in Chiriqui the rain doesn't arrive until 4 pm and by the time it stops, the sun is setting so it creates a nice cool environment for sleep. That said, if you live in David, you will DEFINITELY need Air-Con. If you move to Boquete (an hour north of David; mentioned in the video) however, it's in a valley so it's much cooler there. In fact, most houses in Boquete do NOT have Air-Con. But there's a large expat community there and, as such, the house prices are much higher in Boquete than they are in David.
David is a great place to live if you don't mind hot weather
Are masks still required there????
Masks are required inside buildings.
@@PanamaRelocationTours Wow. That is seriously enough to make me reconsider moving there.
@@thehorseyourodeinon2041 Gov are considering to lift mask inside door requirement in a really short time period. It's coming soon
@@luisenriquepovea2275 Thank you. There are studies indicating that lengthy mask wearing is detrimental to health, although (IMHO) people should have the option of wearing them if they consider the masks more protective than harmful. I just don't feel that way.
Bonjour ! Merci pour cette vidéo. On apprend tant de choses en si peu de temps ! Mais pourriez-vous me dire s'il y a à David des cliniques et hôpitaux qui souscrivent un abonnement d'assurance maladie? Je sais que cela se fait dans certains hôpitaux à Panama ciudad .
Aucun des hôpitaux de David n’a son propre régime d’assurance. Il y a un bureau pour le Plan Médical Familial à l'intérieur de l'Hôpital Chiriqui.
