[TAMMIERAY1977]

What about banking?

[MSOMOS3]

What about church or christian groups or non profits? Are they easy to find?

[SBREID4]

Is this recorded?

As mentioned surfing, yoga, and juijitsu are among the most popular, and I know there's pickleball and probably padel too. There's only one small golf course up in Chitré so this may not be the best locale for golf but soccer for sure and generally there's tennis all over Panama so I'm sure you'd have takers.

I'd say it's typical during storms but not light rains.

I believe so, charities especially - you should be able to find out tons more from local groups like the Pedasí Post on Facebook.

Yes there are local banks and you can also use ATMs to withdraw USD from your accounts in other countries but for most residents openig a local account makes life here even more convenient.

We asked frequent IL contributor and Pedasí resident Jim Gault who advised that there was actually relatively little disruption in Pedasí compared to other parts of Panama - which makes sense as Pedasí is in many ways less reliant on the PanAmerican Highway where the worst blockages were.

Jennifer, my wife and i are planning a trip to Panama in the next few weeks and would appreciate some guidance as to what we should look at with the view to retirement in Panama. I have send you an email to you so you should have my email address

Hi Jennifer, my wife and I are planning a trip to Panama in the next few weeks, from Houston. Can you give us some guidance as to the things we should look into with respect to retirement. I have sent you an email so you should have my email address, regards Pgilip & Christabel

I'm bummed I forgot about it today and had a question. What about the unrest in Panama due to the Canadian mining company ( protests and clashes with police). Is that only in one small area? I am Canadian so also concerned people may now be unfriendly to Canadians.
