Panama: The Good…And The Bad. Part II

Panama: The Good…And The Bad.  Part II

Panama:  The Bad. Hard to Find Healthy Eats. The pervasive local diet is filled with high carbs and deep fried foods.  Words like “Healthy” or “Organic” have yet to enter into the mainstream Panamanian culinary lexicon. Possible remedy:  Go to go to the grocery store more often. Social and Racial Divide. Growing up, my... [Read more of this review]

Panama: The Good….And The Bad

Panama:  The Good….And The Bad

Panama:  The Good…And The Bad. The first question I receive from people is “Do you like Panama?”  It seems like a pretty straight forward question.  Yes, you like Panama. Or, No, you don’t like Panama.  Yet, in my years spent here, i’ve yet to develop a quick response.  Here’s my best attempt at one. Panama: ... [Read more of this review]

Our Fear To Compete

Our Fear To Compete

Panama’s fear to compete Jaime Raúl Molina We in Panama have a series of artificial barriers created by legislative action, that make it extremely difficult for businesses in the country to hire the services of highly qualified foreign employees. This, instead of benefitting Panamanian workers as is the declared intention, results in a reduced... [Read more of this review]

6 Month Review of PaNETma Broadband Internet

6 Month Review of PaNETma Broadband Internet

Approximately 6 months ago, the office where I work switched their internet service provider. Our company had been using Cable and Wireless, but the connection was unreliable and scheduling a maintenance was a nightmare. Due to the amount of people in our office, we needed a super high-speed connection that was reliable and wasn’t a pain in... [Read more of this review]

Cerrito Tropical B&B Inn

Cerrito Tropical Bed and Breakfast Inn on Isla Taboga is an incredible place to spend a few days escaping the city. And when I say escaping, I think most of you know what I mean. Escaping the city traffic (Taboga has maybe 5 cars on the island), the noise and pollution, the heat, the over-stimulation. Occasionally it gets too much. Which is why... [Read more of this review]

Dolce Coffee House

The Dolce (pronounced ‘dol-che’) Coffee House on Via Argentina is completely unique here in Panama City. Owned and operated by Ma’ (that is what everyone calls her- we don’t even know her real name) and her son Jason, this is one cafe that must not be missed if you find yourself in need of a good home-cooked meal. It seems like... [Read more of this review]
