I would be very interested to hear from any of you who have lived in Panama and Costa Rica as well as Nicaragua now what you think in terms of ranking. And the advantages and disadvantages of each one.......I lived in Costa Rica for a long time, mostly in Puerto Viejo de Limon, which turned out to be the center of gangster tourism in C.R. Sure was great while it lasted tho......I do believe I had the best of it.....C.R. was still bueno, bonito y barato even tho auto taxes and the taxes on imported stuff was always high........Also Ive had a good long stretch in Panama and currently see it following the same course as C.R. Ive been to Nicaragua numerous times, twice in the early daze pre boom, and very depressed and once two years ago and really liked it, and couldnt believe all the new growth and changes.......But its one thing to visit and quite another to live.......Im now debating on whether to head south to Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, or north to Nicalandia.........What say you all with experience, as to the overall comparisons of the 3 Central American countries? Wheres the best place to live now at this time?
