What Attracts you to Boquete?
I am a newly divorced after 23 years, single mom of 2 boys 16 and 13. I am looking to move as I am getting tired of the struggle here. I make about 35,000 a year but raising two kids on that alone is just not cutting it and giving them the quality of life I wish for them. I do medical transcription and can take my job with me, so that would not be a problem as long as they have internet service. What I would like to know is would that be enough to have a more relaxed, enjoyable lifestyle where we can actually breathe and be happy? Are there many Americans in my age group (40-something)? What can I expect for my boys to experience on such a move - basically is there anyone there who has done this same thing? Thanks!!!!!

i just read your your inquiry. I have lived here five years and moved from Canada. I presently live in David, originally 3 years in Boquete. When I moved here I came with a wife and four daughters. My daughtrers ranged from 15 to 7 at the time..
As nice as Boquete was, it was very hard for children. The language becomes a barrier. My girls are all bi-lingual now. 2.) Boquete is basically a retirement center, many empty nesters and very very little to do. #.) Schooling is a major issue, one reason we moved to David to be closer to better schools. In Boquete when advertised as bi-lingual school not even close.
Things that children like your boys would enjoy such a movies, bowling, swimming pools etc. are all in David. Because my girls were into horses, there was never a lack of that.
Even to this day there is nothing to do in Boquete for younger people. If you you move your family here for an educational philosphy like we did. To expose them to a completely different culture not hinged on North American ways than this is the place. It is safe, and Panamanian children posses values of respect and politness, that has been eroded in the States.
As far your salary is considered it would be more thatn enough but in the last three years Boquete has become over inflated. While i lived in there had a lvoely large house for 600 hundred a month. But like all gringo communities that doens't last long.
Currently we are in the process of becoming Panamanian citzens. Two our daughters 16 and 17 have returned to Canada to school. One Ywo are here one working Boquete the ohter attending school herer in David. My wife is a professor of English at a University and also teaches part time at one of the better bi-lingual schools in david.
If you have any more questions I would love to answer them. ibelieve if you are equipped with tru information and not pie in the sky visions. then you can decide what is good for your children and you. This can be a true piece of heaven and we would never move back.

Kathy and I are moving permanently to Boquete in August with our 17-year old daughter who will be attending FSU in Panama beginning in January. There are many Americans living in the Boquete/Volcan area. We love the Chiriqui area and are looking forward to the move and a more relaxed lifestyle. I would think that you could live very comfortably on that income given our experiences there.
