We considered a range of countries during  our search, including Belize, Argentina, and Uruguay\u2026 But as we researched, one country emerged more and more as a clear winner: Panama.<\/p>\n<p>We were impressed by the country\u2019s stable government, modern,  well-maintained infrastructure, good-quality and affordable health care,  the low cost of living, and the variety of expat communities. Our minds  were made up\u2014we were moving to Panama.<\/p>\n<p>Though Panama offers the chance to live in the city, by the beach, on  a Caribbean island, and more, we chose to put our roots down in the  highlands.<\/p>\n<p>We purchased a home between Boquete and David,  close to the little village of Dolega, for just $90,000\u2014including a  2003 vehicle and some household furnishings. Our home is a typical  Panamanian-style (one story, concrete) house on three quarters of an  acre of land.<\/p>\n<p>On our property, we are blessed with orange, lime, guava, coconut,  banana, cashew, breadfruit, and cacao trees, not to mention one or two  trees that bear fruit and nuts that we have not learned about as yet!  And these barely take up the outer edge of our property.<\/p>\n<p>That leaves plenty of room for a vegetable garden, if we were so  inclined\u2026but we\u2019re not! Why go to all that work when we can get all the  fresh fruits and vegetables dirt cheap right down the road at any number  of produce stands? Besides, as you will see below, food searching makes  for a lovely drive and a full day\u2019s entertainment\u2026<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because we\u2019re living in Panama\u2019s Chiriqui Province\u2014often  referred to as \u201cthe bread basket of Panama.\u201d It\u2019s an apt description. It  is said that the food grown and raised here is enough to feed all of  Panama with plenty left for export. Meat, poultry, fruit, and vegetables  are all produced right here in our province.<\/p>\n<p>In our vicinity, between David and Boquete, there are cattle ranches,  a huge chicken processing plant, (the chicken here actually still  tastes like\u2026well, chicken), and fresh seafood from the ocean nearby: <em>camarones<\/em> (shrimps), <em>langostinos<\/em> (jumbo shrimps or prawns), and <em>corvina<\/em> (a local white meat fish), all come directly from the fish boats. (Is  your mouth watering yet?) Oh and I forgot to mention\u2014the pork here is  fabulous!<\/p>\n<p>You also won\u2019t get a bad cup of coffee in Panama and that\u2019s largely  thanks to Boquete, where the soil, climate, elevation, and rainfall  blend perfectly to produce the absolute best coffee beans in the world.<\/p>\n<p>Coffee plantations abound, some owned and managed by expats from  Canada and the U.S. One of these well-known plantations, Finca  Esmeralda, has recently been awarded the \u201c#1 Coffee in the World\u201d  distinction for just one of its many boutique coffees. This exceptional  coffee sells for $350 per pound\u2014though of course the numerous grades and  varieties produced by the many coffee growers sell for a diverse scale  of prices, depending on the type of beans used and the processing  methods. Some of the coffee <em>finca<\/em> owners even provide tours so you can see the complete procedure from field to cup.<\/p>\n<p>Back on the Boquete highway, going towards Volcan, there are acres  upon acres of orange trees loaded with sweet, juicy oranges. Then, after  arriving in Volcan there is a sign pointing towards the turn off to the  aptly named Cerro Punta (\u201cTip of the Hill\u201d). There you\u2019ll see huge  fields of strawberries, all covered in netting to discourage the hungry  birds from eating their fill and acres and acres of gargantuan  greenhouses bursting with tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, and more.<\/p>\n<p>As you follow the long, winding road up and up, the huge hills\/small  mountains are covered by enormous fields of vegetables, all the way to  the very top. Potatoes, carrots, beets, onions, <em>zapallos<\/em> (a large squash similar tasting, but milder than turnips), cabbages, <em>chayotes<\/em> (a delicious green vegetable almost like a firm cucumber and delicious  eaten raw or baked), just to name a few. These fields are all being  worked by hand by the indigenous Ng\u00f6be-Bugl\u00e9 people who trudge up and  down those huge hills with their hoes over their shoulders every single  day.<\/p>\n<p>On your way back down the highway, you\u2019ll notice vendors along the  highway\u2014be sure to stop! They sell huge, heavy plastic, 20-pound bags  stuffed with fresh picked vegetables.<\/p>\n<p>The bags are filled with cabbages, lettuce, tomatoes, celery,  potatoes, beets, carrots, and more. Now get this: A bag sells for $5 to  $6! My husband and I eat a lot of fresh vegetables here in Panama  because they are so incredibly fresh and delicious\u2014and affordable. (Still, one of these giant bags will last us between two and three weeks, with no interim veggie purchases.)<\/p>\n<p>Healthy, natural food on our doorstep at very low prices: just one more reason why we\u2019re so glad to call Panama \u201chome.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is a great article from International Living on how rewarding a simple life can be in
