Would you travel to Panama since there's no quarantine? Let me know in the comments!
No
Hey Kristin Where is the online affidavit for enter I see insurance health. Which one ?
yes.
yes.
YES. Have to wait till next year though.
YES!!! More Panama videos. I've never been and there and would like more tips on this hidden gem of a country.
More to come!
indeed agree
Yesssss! More Panama content please! 🤗💗
On it!
What Lais said! 💯❤👍🏿🙏🏾 Muchas gracias! Also your video was greatly appreciated! Thank you for the information! ❤
Let’s go to panama
I'm Panamanian, I can guide u
@@disgxstd nope.
Panama is known as a transit country because of the Panama Canal. While the country is known for its famous canal, its natural attractions include birding, whitewater rafting, and snorkeling tours. You can never go wrong in visiting this beautiful country.
I agree! Although many people end up staying for those reasons ;)
Panama is one of the countries in Central America I almost thought about going to just because it isn't too long of a flight from the US. It's great that they are open again to everyone with all the safety precautions. I don't see me traveling out of the US until next year, but it is always great to see the option which you can!
Thanks Scott! Hopefully you can travel again soon but I’ll do my best to keep everyone informed with updates as I learn about each country!
I hope one day you will announce that world has opened
Yesss I surely will haha 🌎 🌍 🌏✈️✨👽☄️
Wow. I can only dream. Hopefully soon I can go there. Soo beautiful.
It really is! I hope you can go, too :)
Love Panama! Can't wait to go back, but may wait until its safer to travel.
Me too! What’s your favorite thing to do there or place to visit? I haven’t been in a few years now
Looking forward to relocating to Panama next year... just a bit concerned about traveling internationally during this pandemic. Hopefully the situation will be much improved by then!
Hi Stan! I hope things are better by next year, too. Panama seems to be taking sufficient precautions. We’ll see how things go over the next few months!
"Pandemic"
I’m going to Panama in a few weeks! This video just made me even more excited 🇵🇦🙌🏾
Great to hear that, Nell! Where in Panama?
@@TravelingwithKristin Panama City :)
yes please do more on Panama. looking forward to go next year without all the mess they want now to enter.
Noted, Debbie! Maybe I can do a cost-of-living/lifestyle guide for Panama. I just have a few other countries on deck, like Costa Rica and Norway. Will add it to the list!
I was in Panama when it shut down because of Covid. I ended up staying way longer than intended but I had the TIME of my life. Learned a ton and was actually really happy that I couldn't leave ;) If you are heading to Panama the locals really appreciate it if you learn the language as much as possible. Lots of Panamanians speak English because THEY make the effort, so I really believe it's important for tourists to learn at least simple Spanish too.
Hello, Hugs From Panama! That sounds like an incredible experience in Panama! It's wonderful to hear that you had a great time and learned a lot during your extended stay. Immersing yourself in the local language and culture can definitely enhance the overall experience when traveling. Thanks for sharing your insights! 😊
Thank you for being good at what you do... clear, clean, direct, simple... lovely...
Thank you so much! This is the best compliment, seriously 😊😊😊
Great video, thank you Kristin. I live for almost 6 years in Panama, work with tourism and came across many videos, that are not representing the country as it is. Beautiful, diverse and one of the friendliest and happiest places I have seen in the world. And yes, it can get super humid.. :) I'm looking forward to more on Panama from you, happy to help with any information about the Coronado beaches and communities.
Thanks so much for the feedback! Glad you concur :) Coronado is a beautiful beach, too
Assigned to Panama in the late 80s while in the U.S. Navy; married local girl. Now retired, we have a nice house in Santiago where we spend a few times a year. I can say this, my blood pressure drops to almost normal levels while I am there. Don't know why, but I feel great down there. Santiago is off the beaten path, and spouse is from La Colorada a small town about 10kms from Santiago.
oh wow! Thanks for sharing!
Me gusta y Viva Panama 🇵🇦🇵🇦
Gracias Chris! 💓💓💓
1:03 humidity ♥️ Love you Kristin
Too much humidity! lol thank you Rupesh 🥰
That's such an amazing info, Thank you for havd updated the current situation for travel
You’re so welcome Ivonei!
We were scheduled for a Panama Canal cruise in November but Norwegian canceled the cruise last week. I hope we get another chance.
I hope you do too! The Panama Canal is a such a marvel of engineering. I really enjoyed touring there. Fingers crossed for you!
Humidity lots of humidity 👌👌😅😅😅it was fantastic kris nd hope u are fine there
So much humidity! Looool 💧
@@TravelingwithKristin yeah 😆
Yes we have 85%- 95% of huminity😅
Looking to retire in a few years and wish to live a simpler life. Want to start visiting countries and Panama is on the list. Thanks for the info.
That's what it's all about! Simplicity :)
was supposed to be going to the balkins this December but decided to change it up and go tropical. Flying to panama city 11/27 and doing 3 weeks in central/south America. I am just hoping the nightlife and hostel environment is somewhat back to normal.
Sounds like a good decision! Although, I love the Balkans, too... have you seen any of my videos about Albania, Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, or Montenegro?
Was previously looking forward to Costa Rica, but it is more difficult than Panama. Panama has the same climate and fauna so win win. Ecuador could be a good backup as well.
Hi Rick, yes Panama has less stringent requirements compared to CR! Very similar climate and things to do and see. Also, Panama is less expensive. If you have any questions, let me know!
Im waiting for your updated when Chile will reopen for tourists..Thanks Kristin😘😘
You're welcome, Razman! Croatia is up next :)
Will be there over Xmas and can't wait! Thanks for your video!
Hope you enjoy it! You are most welcome; any questions just let me know!
I live in Arizona and probably gonna get tested there. I don't know of any quick testing results within 48 hrs anywhere.
Nope not now!!! Beaches are closed which is a big part of why i love that place..caranval canceled 💀 I went last feb and it was amazing. Think ill wait until feb hopefully by then it changes
Carnaval is so fun! Beaches should be Reopening however...
@@TravelingwithKristin great news!!!! Contadora island is calling me hahaha 😆
Our beaches are opening on Saturday 🤨
@@lualberto4301 yes!!!! But restrictions limited to 7 per group mask required correct? Cant wait to fly back :)
I am going to the Yucatan in November and would certainly consider Panama next year.
I'll be there in November, too! Playa del Carmen?
@@TravelingwithKristin Indeed, but my main focus will be Merida and visiting all the Mayan sites. Also, 5 days at the Eco Hotel El Rey in Cancun. This will be my first time there.
Great video, such helpful info! We are planning to head there in the new year :D
You're welcome, Greg! That would be a fun place to spend the Año Nuevo :)
I’ll be traveling there October 15 !
Best of luck Tracy!
I Love Panama, We have a house in Chitre 15 years now.
Sounds lovely! I have never been there specifically
@@TravelingwithKristin Its very Nice.
love your reviews, thanks for sharing this info :) have you been to Bocas del Toro ? it is lovely !
You're so welcome! Yes I went to Bocas for the first time in 2005 or 2006 and loved it! Has it changed much since then? Last time I went was 2010 I think
Sounds great! I've already heard Panama is a really nice country to visit/live in/retire to.
It really is! I swear it’s half the cost of moving to Costa Rica... quite affordable
@@TravelingwithKristin So I am voting for a more in depth video about living in/moving to Panama. Thanks Kristen!
Great Job! Yess more videos on Panama!!! thanks
You got it, Tony!
I’ve been there before however the requirements are reasonable I’m going to go back!
I agree pretty reasonable! What's your favorite destination in Panama?
@@TravelingwithKristin Isla De Contadora A beautiful island 🏝
Very helpful, Kristin... I’m heading to Panama in a week.
Glad it was helpful! 💛
Well Done Kristin!! Good Information and nice pictures. How much time have you spent there Kristin? Have you lived there? If not where does it rank in regards to possible next places to live and work in for You?
Thanks Gary! I worked hard on this edit :) I lived in Costa Rica for 8 years and went to Panama a few times per year so I've spent quite a bit of time there! Mostly in the city and Bocas del Toro. The city is too hot for me and Bocas too remote except for a surf trip, but I'd like to explore more of the country. I do like the lower cost of living and beaches, however! Internet is pretty fast too
Always great info, thanks!
You are so welcome! Happy to help 😊
Yes. Planning to go in Dec /Jan. More Panama information, please. 😊
Great news! Any questions I can help with?
Saludos desde Panamá 🇵🇦😮
Thanks for watching!
THANKS SO MUCH..
VERY INTERESTING INFORMATION!!!
Glad it was helpful, Roger!
I believe Australia forbids international travel unfortunately. I would love to travel to Panama looks like a beautiful place.
Hi John, hopefully Australia will be open soon for international travel in both directions!
@@TravelingwithKristin Awesome! Keep up the good work.
Loved the video, would you be able to make a video of the cost of living in the city / the out parts of Panama like Colon etc. Thank you keep up the great work🔥🔥
Yes! I have a few other videos on the way first about the cost of living in Norway, Bali, and Costa Rica but I’ll add Panama to the list!
I would not advice go to colon, the city itself isnot very safe, but some beaches away from the city are ok. Better to go to other provinces like Cocle, Los Santos, Chiriquí, Bocas del toro, and fabulous indigenous territory of Güna Yala (aka San Blas archipelago). There’s folklore, music, food, nice beaches and cool fact is at least in the city a lot of people know English
@@escapesbycat Thank you for the update its greatly appreciated. Are you from Panama??
Thank you for your info...however if you do another video on Panama would you do it on Northern Panama...From my experience in Panama Areas near Panama City the Panamanians were not very friendly and took advantage of me any way they could but areas near David in the North were wonderful and hospitable
Noted! I haven't been to David or Boquete yet actually... Thanks Rick!
Hey Rick, just to let you know that David is to the west, not the north.
Not as much to see or do around David....however a quaint beach town
Lies near the. CR. Boarder called Puerto armuelles
yes, I want to check out the expat scene and maybe work remote from there.
Go for it sir! Thanks for watching!
Dude - thank you so much!!
You’re welcome Brayden! Lmk any questions :)
Am traveling to panama from canada in 2 weeks. Hope it goes well insha Allah
Best of luck!
Yes, I would travel there, but I am holding out to get to Malta.
I used to live in Malta! Let me know any questions :)
@@TravelingwithKristin Ha! I did too, but a very long time ago (1972). I am hoping to take the whole family to see that beautiful place, and maybe see if the house is still there. Loved it! Can’t wait to see it again.
Mi gusta ......
Gracias, Charles!
Thanks Kristin. As a current resident of Panama your information is absolutely correct. After 7 months of a hard lockdown finally things are open again. Would it be possible to do a video on the US and specific requirements for certain tourism states like Miami and LA? Thank you very much for the great content as always
You’re so welcome, Mershin! Yes I will look into that! Here in Miami there don’t seem to be any specific requirements. Would you be traveling from PTY-MIA?
@@TravelingwithKristin Thank you Kristin. Yes, thats the plan.
Thanks for the tip about having to register and fill out that form :-)
You’re welcome! Let me know if you have a question about another country :)
@@TravelingwithKristin Will do, Diggin the channel
Anybody travel right now to panama encrypt ur contact (google will block if u type it outa) and lets link up, I speak spanish
Thanks for the video, a mi me gustan noticias de Panama. Arriving in May, hope things are better then, they only getting worse in the states.
You're welcome, Gary! I hope things are smooth sailing by then :)
I’m supposed to be going to Panama very soon to stay with a friend on Bastimentos, really not sure whether I should or not, I’d be travelling alone from London if I’d 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤯 could really do with the break too 😩
Hi Bailey! Oh, Bastimentos is nice! It’s hard to say if you should go or not as we can’t tell if anything would happen... however if you can get the test in time or test negative upon arrival and have time to wait for the results, it could be worth going if you take precautions while traveling. Of course, staying home is always the safest but many people are also traveling safely on a regular basis during the pandemic. Hope this helps! Follow your heart ❤️😉
@@TravelingwithKristin also re test, they’re apparently doing them at the airport on arrival, would you recommend this or trying to get one before I leave? I was a bit concerned on the 48hr timescale. But then also didn’t want to be cueing for hours for the test in the airport?!
@@bailey2913 Hi, I'm Panamanian and I've had many friends travel back and forth from their home countries within the last month. You can either attempt to get tested within 48 from your flight and reflecting a negative result (it's possible to achieve this, I've had friends come in from france and israel with this method) or you could pay for the test upon arrival at the airport, but commit and submit to quarantine for 48 hours or until you receive the results to your test. In the case that you are caught breaching the quarantine, you will be fined from $50 to $1,000 (it varies depending on the degree of violation to the confinement terms.) SO, if you're not willing to wait for your test results while you're in Panama, you should attempt to take the test before arriving :)
@@kimmyc89 thanks for the advice Kim, I wasn’t aware I would have to wait that long for my results, that’s changed my ideas on getting the test on arrival. Would you recommend getting a connecting flight to Bocas, or do you think it’s ok by road?
@@bailey2913 wow I don't even know about the possibility of flying in to Bocas honestly, we are divided into provinces and Bocas del Toro is unfortunately one of the provinces that they still have under strict lock down with like a 7 pm curfew in most of the province and no roaming around on the weekends (friday to sunday) so you'd essentially have monday to thursday from 5 am to 7 pm to do whatever you'd like to do... there are some regions that are an exception, but I am unsure of where you are headed to. I'd recommend flying directly to the main airport (tocumen) instead and then see where to? Panama is pretty small, but we also have SOME mobility restrictions from province to province, there are some beaches that are closer to the city about 2 hours or less (depending on where you'd like to go) that are open to the public now versus a month ago where you couldn't even travel to the beach. If you have any other questions let me know!
"Beginning Saturday, October 24, families will be allowed to gather in groups of seven or fewer at beaches and rivers. Activities at beaches and rivers will only be permitted from 6:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. Masks must be worn at all times, except when within your family bubble or when entering the water. Drinking alcohol at beaches and rivers is prohibited except at restaurants nearby."
Yep, as you say: "fairly normal vacation" !
Pretty good news!
@@TravelingwithKristin Really ? Good to know you are safe on the beach before 4PM. At least they don't mandate masks in the water. Pass.
wow panama,i love panama
Me too! 🇵🇦❤️🇵🇦❤️🇵🇦
Are you in panama now? Nice
Hi John! Not at the moment (Miami)
@@TravelingwithKristin Nice, I went to Tampa from NYC to get residency, then left.. why do you like Miami so much? Currently in Nashville, its pretty sleepy here, but about to go somewhere else... I always wanted to meet you. Hopefully some day.
As of 10/13 there are quarantine rules from Friday to Sunday in Bocas del Toro and all of Chiriqui.
Interesting! Can you share a link with us?
@@TravelingwithKristin We live in Chiriqui 6mos a year. We checked with the US embassy last week to help plan our return and saw the notice in one of their alerts. Also neighbors in Puerto Armuelles report lots of cases.
We are coming in March to check out Pedasi, Playa Venoa, David, Coronado, and Panama City.
Have fun Michael!
Hi Kristin, I hope you doing good! I love traveling and your video is very helpful, specially now when we are not sure if we can or can not go places...... I notice the prices dropped a little when traveling to Maldives, some specials going on. Could you please make a video about Maldives or Bora Bora? It’s a dream of mine to go there. Thank you so much 🙏🏼
Hi Angélica, thanks so much! Hope you are doing good as well 😊 I’ll see if there are any Maldives updates! You can also find info on it in this video around 7:25 ruclips.net/video/yfyLFJtKqsc/видео.html
Thank you so much 😊
Awesome video
Thank you!
Hi hon
more Panama videos please ! Thanks 4 this one
Working on more Tommy! Stay tuned!
I have a trip booked to Panama City from JFK on November 15th. That 48 hour window for a PCR test is a BIG concern. Also, I really hate wearing a mask and can't even imagine wearing one outdoors. I'm so tired of this Covid nonsense and it has me NOT looking forward to my trip. Perhaps with a little luck, the airlines will cancel my flight. I should be excited but I'm not.
Hi Ron! Are you going for business or pleasure? I know the testing window can be stressful but I hope it works out for you and you don’t have to quarantine on arrival or test again... Let us know how it goes and safe travels!
@@TravelingwithKristin I'm going for pleasure (but not if I have to wear a mask LOL). I keep hoping for that "your flight is cancelled" email. I've always wanted to go to Panama and this would be my first time there. Hopefully it all works out :)
Awesome content
Thanks so much!
Mi incanta Panama
Hope you could visit it soon!
Great video Kristin, by the way do you mean October 12 2021?
Thanks! Which one?
Please do Belize. Thanks
Yes! I've been wanting to make a video about Belize
Looking forward to it. Going for Birthday I hope in Nov. To a spa with girlfriends want to be safe. Thanks so much.🤗🤗
Hi Kristin nice content I’m at Ecuador right now, May be I’ll go there mid 2021
Glad to hear that! Safe travels ✈️✈️
Also would you be able to include in your next video different neighborhoods that are being build that are affordable for the Panamaian people/ people who want to retire/ people who want to work their.
Hi Awill, sure where are you from? Are you interested in places in the city, beaches, or countryside?
Nice and interesting video.it is my first time in your channel my name is Jose Taveras
Thanks for watching Jose! 💛
I from panama 🇵🇦✌🏽
Saludos Daniel!
Hey do you know if there is a curfew?
Hi Joseph, here is the current info I found from the US Embassy in Panama:
Beginning Saturday, October 17, the province of Chiriqui and the district of Changuinola in Bocas del Toro will no longer have Saturday quarantine.
Curfews will remain unchanged in the rest of Panama. Monday through Friday the curfew starts at 11:00 p.m and is lifted at 5:00 a.m., with quarantine from Saturday at 11:00 p.m. until Monday at 5:00 a.m.
The provinces of Chiriqui and Colon and the districts of Chiriqui Grande, Isla Colon, Changuinola and Almirante in Bocas del Toro have curfew from Monday through Friday, 7:00 p.m. until 5:00 a.m., with quarantine from Saturday at 7:00 p.m. until Monday at 5:00 a.m.
In the rest of Bocas del Toro the curfew remains from 7:00 p.m. until 5:00 a.m., Monday through Thursday, with a weekend quarantine from Friday at 7:00 p.m. until Monday at 5:00 a.m.
Thank you! I guess I have to wait until the curfew is gone. Who wants a curfew on vacation 😅😞
I guess USA is like level 99+ if we label other countries as risky of COVID
Pretty much 😭😭😭
Lovely video,
Many thanks, Natalie! Croatia is coming up next :)
@@TravelingwithKristin Good Evening
Love you
☺️☺️☺️
i.am prom indonesia.i like your vidios
Thank you so much, Kisin!
I'm hoping to spend the month of October 2021 in Panama. Curious to know how many updates will have happened from the time of this video from October 2020. Has anyone traveled to Panama recently? Do you still need the PCR test if you're fully vaccinated?
Once again, thanks for this informative video, Kristin!
Still waiting on updates Nicki! Thanks for watching!
Hi
A buddy and I are going to Pamana for a fishing trip...How much alcohol, coffee beans, etc are we allowed to bring back to the US? I've heard 2 liters per person and 10LBS of coffee.
Good question! I actually had to look that up. Here is a resource for different types of goods - looks like coffee is unlimited but you have to declare it www.aphis.usda.gov/aphis/resources/traveler/intl-travel/coffee-tea-honey-nuts-spices/coffee-tea-honey-nuts-spices Also, on the immigration form it will ask what the value of the goods is that you're bringing in and you may have to pay import taxes on it. Always declare any food items as a general rule, too. More info on bringing stuff into the US: help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-3619?language=en_US
See you in January
😊😊😊
Thanks ❤️❤️❤️
You're welcome 😊 @Firoz Mon
Also you missed out that men can go out on certain days and women on other days but its to avoid having too many people out and avoid crowds
I did not hear that!
That expired
@@jegl1012 yes it did, now a days there are only restrictions as going out from midnight to about 4am or 5am in the city I think but im not sure I have to check that out
I love you and your dresses
Thank you! ☺️❤️
Kristin, is there a way to travel with you? I would love to travel with you even if it's a paid one...
That’s so nice of you! I plan to do a retreat sometime after the pandemic. Will post about it when it’s time!
@@TravelingwithKristin I will wait for your response...
Kristin, Love your videos. We are inour early 70's, love to travel. Thinking traveling January and February 2023 to Panama. One month beach town and one month in Panama City. What beach town would you recommend?
Glad you love my videos 😊Have fun Cheryl! Panama City is really hot and humid (but you also have the mountains).
Love vídeo ❤🤘🤘😎😷👏👏👏
Thank you Santiago! 💓💓
48 hours is a JOKE.... so is the 72 Hours..... I had to pay $300.00 canadian to get a private test that MIGHT come back within the time restrictions...
WISH ME LUCK, on my way to costa rica soon!
Buen viaje, Robert! Where to in CR?
@@TravelingwithKristin Im visiting www.pachamama.com/ Beautiful community in guanacaste.

That's great to hear Anthony!
@@TravelingwithKristin obrigado I’m in Lisbon 🇵🇹 right now
I would move to Panama, but not the city I would prefer the beach house or mountains.
That's okay! Thanks for sharing!
Hi! When you say that masks must be worn in public places, do you know if that is just for indoors? They’re not forcing people wear masks while outside, are they?
Hi Scrella, I think it's just in shared spaces like public transportation, retail outlets, and restaurants
Please send Ecuador reopen video
Thanks Sumon, noted!
Panama bonito pais mi encanta mi pais India Pero Yo quiero vijar Panama
Go for it!
Personally not all that interested in Panama (other Latin American destinations have a bit more appeal for my tastes) but I have to say you look smashing in that dress Kristin!
Thanks Juan!! 😍 hahaha appreciate it 🥰😘
Trust me Panama is a very diverse country and has a carnaval like feel with so many festivals and cultural activities. Not to mention a beautiful cowboy country region called "El Interior" which is provinces of Los Santos, Herrera, Chiriqui Veraguas and Cocle. Offering exotic beaches and fauna nearby and one of the most sweetest most humble people you will meet! 🇵🇦🇵🇦 Many people still don't know about Panama and it's a much safer destination than other nearby countries. A country with one of the most diverse ethnicities as well as a diverse and historic landmark in the Americas.
@@chrissysviews You make a very strong case; perhaps it's time for me to reconsider. I have spent extensive time in the two bordering countries of Costa Rica and Colombia, and perhaps it is time to check out Panama as well!
Are there topes (speed bumps) too? I saw that there are protests that lead to road blocks. Can’t do that negative Pcr test ( worry about a symptomatic long COVID). Mexico 🇲🇽 has spoiled me with their ease of travel. Serbia 🇷🇸 in 2 weeks is my next trip.
I have heard of protests in Costa Rica lately but not Panama... Serbia is one of my favorites though! You’ll love it. This video showcases the culture and people a lot ruclips.net/video/qlHiyJ156NI/видео.html
Hi Kristin! These videos are SO helpful. I am planning on flying to Costa Rica from New York in January. I was going to stay for a week and then continue down to Panama for another week after that. Do you know if I would be able to take a test while in Costa Rica and have results in time for travel to Panama? I was planning on taking a bus, are you aware of any additional requirements at the border due to COVID?
Hi Allie! So glad you are liking them :) Yes testing is available in CR, however the border is still closed with Panama for foreigners. However, that might change in January! Check with the Tico Times or US Embassy in Costa Rica for updates and lmk any other questions!
I will go in panama on August 2024
Enjoy your trip, Heidi!
It is not true some things like that there is no quarantine at all. On weekends we have total quarantine. Business days are from Monday to Friday. You must be more objective in that.
Tax free too.
Yes! Major bonus
Not an issue for people from the US. The US will still tax you everywhere on the planet because they own you.
@@55mikeburns If they can.
@@tenminutetokyo2643 You can't outrun their computers though. The US has information sharing with nearly everyone now.
@@55mikeburns Let em share info. No info will appear if you don't exist. Be the corporation.
You have to do the tests done at arrival or do the test before leaving to Panamá
Either way is possible
I like to travel from or to panama from colombia. I am a Canadian Tourist. Do you have any advise ? how to travel , bus or train and the cost? Let say to medellin or cartagena? Is it better fly first to Panama from USA or to Colombia?
You should be able to fly directly to Panama without connecting but you could also transit through other airports in most cases without having to do any testing
@@TravelingwithKristin what is the best way to travel from colombia to panama city? And the company name please
Do I need a negative pcr results just for a short layover
I’m traveling from miami to Cali Colombia but I have a short layover in Panama
@@idethrone6809 no need. Me too i fly from miami
I had covid I wonder if I could show them an Antibody test....?
I haven't seen anything on that specifically but you could go to that island in Brazil that only allows people who have already had Covid to come in! ruclips.net/video/cpngMvvrgNk/видео.html
Can you do a video on "retirement on Panama?" Things like cost of living, housing, food cost, visas would be nice to know about. Thanks.
Great suggestion! Will try to add that to the upcoming year's schedule
look on youtube panama expats theres a channel for it
What about Colombia 🇨🇴???? Please make a vedio about travel to Colombia 🇨🇴 thanks
