Hello everyone! For the last 10 years I talked about retiring abroad. Now I'm only two years away from my retirement!!!!
And it seems like a very long two years to me as I would love to just up and retire right now but I need to wait till I'm 66.
I have been looking at Panama for the last five years as a place that I think I would like to retire. Obviously I need to come down and check the Panama out.
I plan over the next two years to make a couple two or three weeklong trips to Panama to travel around and check out the different areas. I am not looking to buy a home but renting for a long long long long term. Do many people do that or do most people bye?
I'm not looking to re-create my American home in Panama but want a simple place where I can relax and write and enjoy people and just get out of the rat race. Since I have lived all over secondary to my father being in the service and traveling on my own I like a variety of different types of climates and areas.
I just not sure how to go about going down and getting started on checking out some areas. Don't want to do any of the tours talking about Panama, they seem more commercial driven.
I'm more of a get out and do it type of person. I tried to find someone who was also into checking out Panama and maybe traveling with me.
But that didn't work out. If anyone can give some suggestions it would be much appreciated! I know just to see all of Panama and get a good idea I need to take about three different trips to cover all the areas.
So you all started somewhere how did you get started!! Thank you for any suggestions, Vicky
