Panama Adventure Continues

Blue (my dog) and I are getting settled in our rented house in Volcan, Chiriqui, Panama. We are comfortable, but not a lot of extra room.

I cleaned out the spare bedroom and put sheets on the beds in preparation for friends of mine who will be spending the night with their two young daughters. It is a real job to find a place for everything from a 4 bedroom U.S. style house in a 2 bedroom home in Panama, but it can be done!

We happily spend our days playing on the ham radio (radioaficionado), taking photographs, and playing "fetch" with Blue's ball. I am also preparing to build the house at the "ranch" outside of town beginning in January.

Anyone who is considering Panama for retirement should look at Volcan for all that it offers "off the beaten path". The friendly people and lower cost-of-living alone are enough, but there is much more if you are open to new cultures and new experiences.

Happy New Year from Panama!
