    * Amenities in Gorgona/Coronado
    * Restaurants and shopping
    * Her recent medical emergency
    * Seasons in Panama
    * How she learned about living in Panama
    * What she thinks about Panama Relocation Tours
    * The Manana attitude and why it's a GOOD thing!
    This video is from when Carol lived in Guarare near Las Tablas for $550 a month

    Wow, Carol. What a story.....what made you choose Coronado, and why did you choose Panama over Costa Rica or Mexico? Your description of an hour driving here or there, I am the same age as you, but when you live in NY it's hard to get used to having to go an hour here or there. Are there any concerns medically for major events? I suppose some folks would just want to stay around Panama City instead of Gorgona and Coronado just because of the convenience of English speaking medical staff......How do you feel about the climate/weather?

      depends on your age. If you are 60-69, you can get health insurance for $102 per month IF you do not have any pre-existing medical conditions.

    Thanks for your information, we are Canadians and would like to rent for a month this coming December in your building. It looks like a perfect place for us who love to walk, enjoy eating out and the warm weather. Is it possible to send us some information about renting an apartment? Is this highrise in Colorada?
