It's a tropical country, with warm weather all year round. Taxes are almost nonexistent, no standing military, lots of expats, lots of freedom (outside of covid), a high standard of living, and a cosmopolitan lifestyle. These are just some of the reasons Panama might be a good option for you, listen in to the episode for everything you will need to know to make it a reality.
