A friend of mine worked down there for a shipping company for about 3 years back in the late 70s. He loved it but was glad to be home. He said 3 years was enough. It just isn't home.
He said he was paid enough to afford to live in a house on the outskirts of town, have a live in housekeeper and a regular day time housekeeper and they took care of all the cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping, housework, and cooking for him.

Panama is a weird place. Parts of the city look like Miami. Other parts look like Managua.
There is an obvious and pervasive American influence (for instance, they are the only central american nation with decent highways). But that said most of the country is still extremely underdeveloped (esp on the Caribbean side).
Their version of Spanish is pretty weird...more of a Spanish-English pidgin.

I went a few times for work several years ago. Loved every minute of it. It was an awesome place with fine women.
My buddy goes regularly, actually just got back last week and confirms my memory.
I could do it with the right opportunity.

You going to be in Bocas del Toro?
I've been on the Pacific side. Puerto armuelles, and up in the mountains, Boquete. Chiriqui Viejo is one of the finest whitewater trips you will experience.
Edit: I looked up Portobelo. Avoid Colon. Lots of crime. PC is nice.
If you could figure out the peacock bass fishing in Gatun, that is supposed to be a blast.

Had a friend in Panama that I visited a few years ago..
The wemens love the gringos and they are . All the chicks we hung out with were getting college degrees in the states and spoke english. It was a good time..

It is not a coincidence that Colon shares a name with the Placa del Pupu in humans. They are both truly fully shite-tay.
Avoid at least the one you can find on the map.
Otherwise a great time can be found there, good luck.

Spent 6 years and have been all over Europe, Central and South America as well as the Carribean. Panama City is hands down my favorite. Great melting pot for all of South and Central America. Terrific fishing. Had a blast every time I was there.
