What is life like as an expat in your area?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...

"Life for expats and digital nomads in Isla Taboga is a unique blend of tranquility and adventure. The island, often referred to as the "Island of Flowers", is a paradise for nature lovers with its lush vegetation, beautiful beaches, and abundant wildlife. The slow pace of life on the island provides a peaceful environment for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. The local community is welcoming and friendly, making it easy for expats and digital nomads to integrate and make new friends. The island's small size also means that everything is within walking distance, from the local grocery store to the beach. Despite its small size, Isla Taboga has a reliable internet connection, making it a suitable place for digital nomads to work from. There are also several cafes and restaurants where one can work while enjoying the island's scenic views. The cost of living is relatively low compared to other popular expat destinations, making it an attractive option for those on a budget. The local cuisine is a blend of traditional Panamanian dishes and international fare, offering a variety of options for every palate. The island's close proximity to Panama City also means that expats and digital nomads have easy access to the amenities and services of a major city. Regular ferry services make it easy to travel between the island and the city. However, it's worth noting that the island's laid-back lifestyle may not be for everyone. Those seeking a vibrant nightlife or a wide range of cultural activities may find the island's offerings limited. Additionally, while English is widely spoken in Panama, the primary language on Isla Taboga is Spanish, so some knowledge of the language can be beneficial. Overall, life for expats and digital nomads in Isla Taboga offers a unique opportunity to live and work in a tropical paradise, surrounded by natural beauty and a welcoming community," remarked another expat who made the move to Isla Taboga, Panama.
