in Panama part 2"},"content":{"rendered":"<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While life in Panama can be a challenge now and then when the power goes off and your battery back up systems slowly drains to zero, life without internet and email does not mean the end of the world.\u00a0 My daughter is here for another two weeks and having weaned her off of her Blackberry (a real challenge) and instant messaging, she now enjoys just chillin and traveling\u00a0 and working on her photo album documenting her voyages in the interior with Dad.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today, we have the typical 15 minute episode where the power goes off so we quickly get what we need done just in case it might be out for longer.\u00a0 We also patiently await the census takers who are scattered throughout the country and cities today taking the national census.\u00a0 Unlike the US and other parts of the world, Panama takes its census very seriously and you are to stay at home until your interview is complete and you are handed a paper acknowledging that you have been counted.\u00a0 Otherwise if you are caught driving around without it, you are subject to a large fine.\u00a0 So here we stay and patiently wait our turn.\u00a0 Time for Dad to catch up on his blog and promote another good deal that we can recomend.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The last two days were again beautiful so we took a trip to Boca\u00a0Chica where we stay with friends at their place called Seagull Cove Lodge.\u00a0The owners Flavio and Pillar are the most wonderful couple that\u00a0\u00a0you will ever meet\u00a0and the service at their place\u00a0is impeccable.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/panamaadvisoryinternationalgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/6_sunglasses.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"6_sunglasses\" src=\"http:\/\/panamaadvisoryinternationalgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/6_sunglasses-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a> <strong>Seagullcove Lodge is also for sale and will not stay on the market much longer as the owners have reduced the price from <\/strong><strong>$2\u00a0 million to $1.4 million.\u00a0 The Property includes the owner&#8217;s apartment, restaurant, bar and dining area and 5 casitas that lead down to the beach.\u00a0 They own the property with clear title down to the beach where they have a concession for the beach terrace, a long dock and the right to expand the marina operation.\u00a0 It is an unheard of bargain and could not be duplicated for the money.\u00a0 In addition, Flavio has plans to add another 5 units and we discussed a concept to develop an owners private residence on the property as well.\u00a0 Call me or drop me an email for details on this before it is no longer available.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We arrived in the morning early and met a local captain who we go out with to the islands\u00a0 in a small panga and set off on\u00a0our journey.\u00a0 Boca Chica has some of the most beautiful coast line in Panama and a national marine park comprised of dozens of little\u00a0tropical islands and sandy coves that remind one of Robinson Crusoe.\u00a0 Our first order of business was to catch bait which my daughter\u00a0accomplished quickly so we were of to\u00a0my favorite fishing hole in minutes.\u00a0\u00a0 Literally, the ocean opens up a huge hole in the water when the swells cover a rock the size of a football field and recedes.\u00a0After catching our dinner we tried to stop a couple of huge fish that proved too big to handle and were very well practiced at hiding in caves and cutting lines but at least we had a nice 10 pound red snapper ready to take back to chef Flavio.<\/p>\n<p><a

justify;\">This is\u00a0\u00a0why I live in Panama and why\u00a0I chose to live here in Boquete, because I am 2 hours from the most spectacular coastal area in the Pacific south of the Southern Passage in Alaska and the fishing for snapper, wahoo, tuna and marlin is incredible. And the family loves to fish!\u00a0 Besides snapper, the tuna run this year was spectacular and it was not unusal to catch several ones over 120 pounds and many more from 25 to 80 pounds.\u00a0 Three weeks ago we brought home 300 pounds of fresh sushi grade yellow fin that was shared between myself and two of my friends.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/panamaadvisoryinternationalgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/5_ash.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"5_ash\" src=\"http:\/\/panamaadvisoryinternationalgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/5_ash-300x283.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"272\" height=\"280\" \/><\/a> Ashleigh caught a mess of snapper.<\/p>\n<p>My son \u00a0Thomas landed this 150 pound tuna.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/panamaadvisoryinternationalgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/tom_and_tuna.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"tom_and_tuna\" src=\"http:\/\/panamaadvisoryinternationalgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/tom_and_tuna-247x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"303\" height=\"284\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/panamaadvisoryinternationalgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/toms_tuna.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Well, it is \u00a0time to hit the send button as we are fixing another Sunday brunch at home here in the mountains as we\u00a0wait our turn to be counted.\u00a0 I would add that we will be counted as one of the lucky ones to be able to live in such a place.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">PS:\u00a0 There were over 40 home sales closed last month and the supply of exisitng homes for sale are down to under 100.\u00a0 For a town of 18,000 people that is huge and as I have mentioned before, \u00a0the velocity will continue as people realize the quality of life equation that exisits here in Boquete.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high&#8230;There&#8217;s a land that I heard of, once in a lullaby. Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue. And the dreams that you dare to dream, really do come true. &#8221; &#8211; E.Y. Harburg<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There is indeed a land where rainbows often grace skies that are unencumbered by pollution, life is unhurried, and retirement dreams are fulfilled for many, in the Chiriqui highlands of Panama. Here&#8217;s the story&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ex-pats, for those who are unfamiliar with the term, are those who leave one&#8217;s native country to live elsewhere. This unique breed may have a few motivational variations for permanently traversing beyond borders, but they tend to share a common character trait \u2013 a great sense of adventure in abandoning what is socially, culturally, and geographically familiar to pursue their dream of a healthier, happier, less hectic lifestyle. And, given the current economic state of affairs, perhaps they share the collective desire to avoid a possible catastrophe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">They seek a better quality of life married to a lower cost of living. They\u2019re confident enough to start over in a new environment, making new friends. Ex-pats likely possess a libertarian streak, a do-it-yourself mentality that propels them to create their lives anew, whether it means transforming a piece of property into a model of green energy self-sufficiency, launching a new school for local kids, or opening a new caf\u00e9. And characteristically, they want to integrate into a community of similar-minded souls.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What gives a particular area the gravitational pull for ex-pats? It often starts with a warm climate and beautiful scenery surrounding a charming, affordable city or town. An abundance of fresh water sources, locally grown food and reliable hydro-electric power. Add a big welcome mat to foreigners from the local people, and a government actively enticing you to stay with such incentives as no property tax for the first 20 years, a generous program for newcomers to guarantee permanent residency, equal rights under the law, discounts for products and services across the board, plus excellent asset protection and maximum privacy from the banking institutions. Welcome to Boquete, Panama, and leave the door open. There\u2019s more coming.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WELCOME TO MY HOME IN THE LAND OF THE RAINBOWS<\/strong><br \/>\n<a
