"Boquete is a small mountain town in the Chiriquí province of Panama. It is known for its temperate climate, lush vegetation, and stunning views of the surrounding mountains. Expats should be aware that Boquete is a small town with limited amenities, so it is important to plan ahead and bring any necessary items with you. Additionally, Boquete is a popular tourist destination, so it is important to be aware of the local customs and laws. Expats should also be aware that the cost of living in Boquete is higher than in other parts of Panama, so it is important to budget accordingly. Finally, Boquete is a great place to learn Spanish, as there are many language schools and classes available," remarked another expat who made the move to Boquete, Panama.
