What should I pack when moving to Boquete?
We asked people living in Boquete to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"Things I wished or do not regret bringing: Towels in colors I like, Bed linens and Shoes. Things I wish I left at home: nothing," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Boquete, Panama.
"When moving to Boquete, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and terrain. Bring comfortable, lightweight clothing that can be layered, as temperatures can vary throughout the day. A raincoat and umbrella are also essential, as Boquete is known for its frequent rain showers. Sunscreen and a hat are also important, as the sun can be quite strong in the area. Additionally, it is a good idea to bring sturdy shoes for walking, as the terrain can be quite uneven. Finally, don't forget to bring any necessary medications and toiletries," commented one expat who made the move to Boquete, Panama.
