Yes, we love it here! The kids all have "animal chores" each day. Not sure they love it, but they are at least learning about animals and how to care for different ones. We just got rid of three of our goats last week - decided it was TOO MUCH WORK to have that many!! We want the kids to be raised in a culture that is not entertainment oriented like it is in the US. We enjoy the culture here very much. Good idea for the curation group. I'll have to think about it. Life is crazy around here and I'm not sure how much time I'll have to invest online... Thanks for the friendly welcome! 😀

A Panama Mama ~ Hi! I'm New to Blurt!
That all sounds really good. I'd pay top dollar for some goat cheese. I traveled through Panama a few years ago. Spent about two weeks there mostly in the capital and Bocas del Torro. I think you made a good decision. As I've been well aware for a long time that Pananama has some great expat communities like yours. I spent about 6 month in Vilcabamba Ecuador which has become quite well known as a healthy living expat kind of place.
Anyway, as it's written all over my article you saw, yes the "entertainment" culture is totally toxic on basically horrific levels. So enjoy all things Pananama. And I'm looking forward to supporting whatever you do here on Blurt!
We went to Bocas for the first time in March. It was not our favorite place!! I think we went during the wrong season though - it rained pretty much the whole time. And it was expensive due to there being 10 of us trying to get around in taxis (since our car missed the ferry)! It was an experience for sure! I haven't heard about the town in Ecuador. Sounds cool. We are here for the long haul. My husband said he has a "20 year plan" for our neighborhood. 🙃
Wow. That is amazing. You can really build something that lives on forever in those twenty years. I'm still yet to choose a location for where I may settle, but right now traveling through Thailand I'm learning first hand about the many options this country has to offer.
Yes, Bocas del Torro was a disappointment for me too :/
I much prefer places like Playa del Carmen in Mexico near Cancun.
