I will hopefully be in Panama City late Sunday (12/11/16) and I'm sorry I didn't stumble upon this site earlier. I'll be staying for 1 week in the El Cangrejo area Panama City. I am 61 years old, male, African American, teacher in Tallahassee FL, 4 or 5 years from retirement, and trying to evaluate countries where potentially I might reside post retirement. My two questions are (I have others, but don't want to intrude on your time); 1) To best assist in my short time here, what place(s) would you visit to best get a feel for Panama as a home and 2-What would you do in the intervening 4 or 5 years to best prepare for life in Panama (I am a former Peace Corp volunteer but soo long ago, thus I still seek transition advice).
Thank you!
