What should I pack when moving to Panama City?
We asked people living in Panama City to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"I arrived 4 days ago, and so far, I don't wish for anything more, nor anything less. I've brought clothing and essentials and that's all," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Panama City, Panama.
"Brought: books, DVDs, no printers or fax machines. Wish I had left at home: a HOME. Not having one Stateside means mail forwarding only, not having a state to claim residence in for Medicare, voting, getting mail delivered, and perhaps a relative sift through the mail and scan me only important papers. Don't bring wood furniture - the tropics call for their own woods. NO metal anything - file cabinets, etc. And don't store in highrise depositos - they're greasey and dirty. Tape any boxes on all seams so the contents stay clean," commented one expat who made the move to Panama City, Panama.
