"Typical construction of homes in Boquete, or all of Panama, is lack of insulation. During rainy season the rain drops, size of marbles on a tin roof is deafening. You may want to keep ear plugs nearby," explained one expat living in Boquete, Panama.

"Right now, my room is comparable in size to a prison cell, but it's clean, there is WiFi, a TV,a desk, a small fridge, and my own bathroom. (Only window is in the bathroom!) Oh, and a bed!
