Detailing my adventures when I lived in Panama
So I haven’t seen a scorpion since I’ve been here, but then I just saw one crawling on my desk. Thank gawd it was a baby scorpion. I managed to keep it on a checkbook holder so I could take it outside. Amazingly unlike other insects (not sure if a scorpion is an insect), they … Read more
So if you want to come to Panama to relax, you may not. It’s a Saturday & I just wanted to sleep in, but NOOOOOO, I can’t because the assholes in my backyard are disrespectful immature pricks. They have been BLASTING their music since 11:30 am & it’s now 3:17 pm. I can’t think, I … Read more
So I hate to say this, but after living in Panama for almost a year, I have come to the conclusion that if you don’t have something to offer a Panamanian local or an expat living in Panama, you are dismissed. Nothing ever goes beyond the reason for the initial conversation, whether it’s an expat … Read more
I don’t know what it is, but I don’t feel any sexual energy at all in Panama. I’m a very intuitive person, & it took me almost a year to realize that’s one thing that’s missing in this so called “Latin” country. I thought it was just me, but now I’m pretty sure it’s not. … Read more
So I expect that more & more Americans will be leaving the US to go live elsewhere as things get worse in the US & more people marry or have relationships with people in other countries. I was surprised to see that some are renouncing their citizenship, but now I understand why. Here’s an article … Read more
So this is why I have to be careful about what I say on my blog, because it’s been known in the past that Panamanians will go after you if you say anything negative about them. Most people say negative things about large corporations & the government & do those entities go after them all … Read more
So if you plan on staying in Panama city & you are going to be near Via Espania on Via Argentina, then I recommend you check out the park there. It’s a couple of blocks up from Via Espania & has benches where you can sit, relax or wait for someone to drop by & … Read more
So another expat (this time she looks younger, assuming the pic is accurate) had to start putting me down because I posted a request for a short term rental in Boquete & I said I was looking for hot water because I came to the conclusion that since sooo many expats live in Boquete, most … Read more
So there seems to be this ongoing battle between expats about whether expats are guests when they come to live in Panama. I vote NO, not unless you are just here on vacation. If I’m living here & a part of society, of course I’m not a guest, but for some very strange reason, there’s … Read more
So I’ve posted about this before about expats in Panama being nasty. I have to write another post, because it just won’t stop. Here’s another example… I asked the group of expats who live in the David area which ISPs are there. I hate Cableonda as you know, but may have to continue with them … Read more
