Our Trip to Panama!

We decided to take advantage of the recent need to do a visa run and visit Central America, a part of the world that had always caught our attention but we hadn't yet made it to. Within Central America, we were drawn to Panama as we had heard great reviews and wanted to scope it out as a potential place to live in the future. After arriving in Panama City, we went straight to the domestic airport to catch a flight to Bocas del Toro, a popular backpacker destination. We managed to stay away from the crowds, however, by spending our time at the beautiful and eco-friendly Al Natural resort, where we loved the family style meals and time we spent relaxing.

On returning to Panama City after a few days, we took in one of its main tourist attractions, the Panama Canal, and found it fascinating to watch the ships maneuver the locks, learned about the recent expansion that allowed for the passage of even larger freighters, and walked along the city's boardwalks and causeways.

On this episode, we talk about our trip to Panama, including some of the reasons we decided to go, how we got to Bocas del Toro and our experience on Isla Bastimentos. Even after we took in the Panama Canal once we got back to the city, we know there's plenty more in Panama to explore, and think that we would definitely be able to live here for a while in the future!

Enjoy!
