When we asked what advice they have for others considering retiring abroad, they advised...
"Research, live there for at least six months, do not purchase property, and be wary of hype which almost always comes from real estate oriented promoters etc. Learn enough of the language to show the locals that you're trying, and don't be afraid to use it. They'll be very appreciative," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Boquete, Panama.
"Retirees in Boquete advise others considering retiring abroad to research the cost of living in the area, as well as the availability of healthcare and other services. They also suggest getting to know the local culture and customs, as well as learning some of the language, to make the transition smoother. Additionally, they recommend visiting the area multiple times before making a final decision, to ensure that it is the right fit for you. Finally, they suggest taking advantage of the many outdoor activities and natural beauty that Boquete has to offer," commented one expat who made the move to Boquete, Panama.
