Panama

Welcome to Panama!
Bienvenidos a Panama!

The whole world is connected to Panama by an important trade route: the Panama Canal. This canal is of course on our list of places to visit, anyone spending a little time in Panama should definitely take a look at this world-famous trade canal. We are already looking forward to it! Panama has two independence days and is therefore probably one of the most “independent” countries in the world – at least if we look at the public holidays. And finally, something less well known: Panama has over 1600 islands, we definitely didn’t know that before our trip either. Maybe we’ll have the opportunity to go on an island trip in Panama – who knows.

So off we go, to a Central American country with charisma all over the world!

We are Paddy and Mimi, a travel-hungry couple from tiny Switzerland in the middle of Europe. We call ourselves slow travelers, because we like to spend enough time in one place or country. Therefore we don’t only visit the typical sights but also get to know the culture of the respective country.

During our trip through Mexico, a certain rhythm slowly settles in. One stop is rather urban, a city or at least in a well-developed village, followed by another stop in nature. This is also the case after San Cristobal de las Casas: We discover another waterfall on...
