[@suzetteshares]

This video touched my heart. I would love to have coffee with Peggy

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Thanks for watching the video. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[@ericl.winter3622]

After watching this delightful video, I was so deeply saddened to hear that Rick passed away shortly there after. Brought tears to my eyes. I was beginning to imagine what it would be like to hang out with him, if we hopefully end up moving there. Rest In Peace.

I just watched this video and it reaffirmed my decision about retiring inPanama.Sorry for your loss

Thanks for watching.

It's great to see that Peggy has found a place to be happy despite suffering a big loss. A good attitude towards life.

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Peggy is surrounded by friends and very happy in Panama.

[@tessw9744]

I'm sorry for your loss. Your husband must be happy knowing you're happy and safe.

[@bhoustonjr]

Rest in Peace Rick,,,,, it was always a great time with you, I loved our times with you and your new extended family.

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Rick loved living in Panama.

[@fanfare100]

Peggy, I'm very sorry about Rick's passing. But I'm very happy that he was happy about his decision and that he got to enjoy his dream with you.

[@hoochiecoochie571]

I am so sad to hear of Rick's passing. I've watched this video and his other one a few times now and he seemed so happy in his retirement and to have a lovely new family. I was happy for him. He seemed like such a nice man, too, someone I think I could have easily been friends with. My condolences to his family.

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Rick loved living in Panama. He was very happy.

[@hoochiecoochie571]

@@PanamaRelocationTours My brother and his wife will be moving there within the next two years and my wife and I are retiring early at 62 in 6 years which is when we will make the move too. I hope to love Panama as much as Rick did. The Minnesota winters and the stress of our jobs have finally broken us. We will be taking your tour before then. Look forward to meeting you all.

so beautiful there. coming from coastal southern california the green of panama is very attractive.

[@zunilawestcott2646]

I love this! I spent many summers as a child in Dolega with my grandparents and that town has a special place in my heart. I’m glad Mrs. Peggy loves Dolega as much as I do. I hope to be back soon in the near future and visit myself 😊

[@bobcromeans9100]

Well done. Love the desire of these two folks to live in "Panamanian" Panama. They both give a relaxed, natural and joyous vibe. Not much of that in the States these days. All the best to both of you. Thank you for sharing.

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Yes, very sad that Rick got Covid then died

[@billhennessey6374]

Thank you for sharing your story.

[@KhemistryIBMOR]

Very good information!

[@candlesoftheearthbestcandl995]

So sorry about your loss. Love pets and horses too❣ I am going to move there but won't be able to move until later this year. Is it muggy/humid there? I like warm weather as im tired as freezing my rear off here in the Pacific NW. Always wearing a jacket or sweater even in my house here. Thank you and God Bless🙏🥰

[@grcerosa]

Beautiful comments, about the 👏Panamanian people

[@janetdineen5307]

I cried when you talked of your husbands heart being there. Beautiful video and life. We are visiting in September. Checking out different places. Maybe we can visit.

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Enjoy your visit to Panama.

Great advice! 😍

[@roberteldridge8216]

Hi Peggy. Just now watching the video. From last spring. Fellow Illinoisan here wanting to make Panama our home. Was really interested in the dolega area. Perhaps when I am visiting in April I will have the good fortune to run into you and say hello!

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Sounds great!

I'm sure Peggy meant, "welcome to my mansion". I am deeply sorry for the loss of her husband. What is the cost of living predicted for Dolega?

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Pegge bought her furnished house on 2 acres for $125,000.

[@MelissaConley1951]

Absolutely delightful woman. If I make it down I'm going to look Peggy up!

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Please do!

[@dovygoodguy1296]

Peggy, your story is very inspiring and makes me want to follow your footsteps. How do you pay for everything? In cash or US debit card? How do you feel about all the infrastructure issues in a country so different from the US (electricity, water, weather, plumbing, streets, sidewalks, walkability)? How did you find your day worker? How do you feel about everything related to medical/hospital services? I found Mr. Johnson very interesting as well!

[@richjudy2887]

Happy spirits, the both of you. Enjoy....hope to be a neighbor in a couple of years.

[@lareekline8232]

What is the best internet I can get in Dolega?

[@julietschida9114]

Main issue is flight time to or from the U.S. is so long, then how far is the travel from Panama City International to that town?

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

It's a 2 hour flight to Miami, 3.5 hour flight to Houston. Not so bad!

[@fanfare100]

Gosh, my flight between California and New Jersey is much longer, and that's even if it's non-stop. Also it's much more expensive than a flight to and from Panama. And that's via United. People who have access to Spirit Airlines should check out the dirt cheap prices they have to and from Panama. Like, I don't know how they do it. I've taken those too.

God bless you Peggy, your happiness is rich.

[@terianderson9959]

So sorry for your loss Peggy. I would love to come visit. I am a 67 yr old female. I am divorced. I need a change so badly. Can you live on an income of 1,378 per mo. as a single?

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Yes you can live on that income in many places in Panama. Dolega would be one of them.

[@gregdurham9779]

Do you have to have a vehicle or do they have Huber?

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

No Uber in Dolega but taxis and buses are readily available

[@victorlionelnazaire685]

What's the rental cost for a 2-bedroom house in Dolega ?

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

In Dolega, it depends on the house. I've seen rentals for as little at $350 for simple a two bedroom or you can get a really nice furnished two bedroom for $700.

Two deaths in this video. How is death treated for expats in Panama - do people get buried/cremated in Panama? Shipped home? Just curious.

[@fanfare100]

My grandpa was an American. He chose to be cremated. Yes, one can be buried or cremated in Panama. And if one arranges before-hand one can pick where one wishes for the remains to be located. It's always good to plan that in advance so as to not burden the survivors.
