In my latest episode of Global Real Estate Insider, I delve into the realities of retiring to Panama—one of South America's top destinations for expats and retirees. This episode highlights why Panama is often celebrated for its affordable cost of living, excellent healthcare, and expat-friendly environment, while also shedding light on challenges such as language barriers, tropical humidity, and navigating local bureaucracy.
If you’re considering retiring abroad, this discussion is packed with practical insights to help you determine if Panama aligns with your lifestyle and retirement goals.
