We have lived and traveled extensively around the world (both military & personal) and love the little unplanned adventures we have encountered along the way. I don't recall how we learned of Boquete but we both love the Spanish culture and its people. and are very excited about our first visit to Panama, and particularly Boquete. Looking forward to meeting the locals and ex-pats.
