This discussion group is intended to assist those who are considering retiring in the Republic of Panamá and for those already living here. It is a forum for asking questions, sharing experiences and offering a helping hand to newcomers.

Please avoid political and religious subjects. No business or business service offers, please. The occasional "for sale by owner" type of ads are OK, but this is not the place for agents to post ads for real estate. Those who abuse this request will be placed on moderated status or removed from membership.

New member messages are routinely moderated in order to control unsolicited spam and flaming. Enjoy!
