EXPAT EXPLORER UPDATE.... IN PROCESS
   
 


The Expat Explorers focus is on helping existing residents, new comers, visitors and investors learn more about Panama in a fun and educational way through our uniquely designed events. Many of our members already live in Panama, but we welcome everyone to all outings, whether a "signed up" member or just visiting Panama for business or pleasure.  Our outings are a GREAT way to meet new friends and experienced Expats that one knows one will enjoy because everyone simply signs up for the outings of interest to them.  There are NO MEMBERSHIP fees - so if you are reading this, YOU are already a member! All you need to do (if you haven't already) is sign up for our newsletter to stay on top of what is happening in Panama!

 EXPAT EXPLORERS!
is a fun and curious group of Expats, made up of both visitors and those already living here.  It is a group formed to facilitate getting to know each other as well as to explore the country of Panama, including its businesses, services, and options together rather than on our own.  Basically it is for those who want to meet, live, laugh, and learn more often than the once-a-month of the Socials.  Again, everyone is welcome, so please click on the tab below to see what adventure you would like to participate in the next time it is offered!
 



Panama Discovery Trip:

AND SO MUCH MORE!

EXPAT EXPLORERS!  
have smaller group outings uniquely designed to allow us to explore different areas of Panama in fun ways without having to be tourism or business benefit based.  We have put together fun events, like the "Treasure on Taboga" - an energetic and fun Pirate Party/Treasure Hunt; learning excursions, such as the Furniture & Decor Tours (where we explore several stores as a small group, and report back to each other).  We even have the occasional party,  like the Roof Top Martini Party; yet, because we are all Expats In Panama, we do all these things with like minded individuals we are already comfortable with .... and, just for a break ....without a language barrier.  We always offer an open invitation for any new Expats, or visiting tourists, family &/or friends having interest in the topic of the event/outing.



Hello Expat Explorers!.
 ********************************

Scheduled for Feb. 4th to 6th - limited space available
 Weekend at Punta Galeon Resort on the Pearl Islands. Estimated cost $160/double room all inclusive at the resort (all meals, soft drinks, national alcohol) Airfare/ferry is not included. Although our original limited spacing has been filled, interest is so popular that we are now awaiting further  confirmation from the hotel to see if they can either extend the deal or give us a reasonably comparable one! Please watch this posting as we will update asap. For more information, please write to admin@expatsinpanama.com!

********
FEBRUARY 8th to 13th

This fantastic trip is absolutely the best way to experience real Panama! We will be visiting several museums, botanic gardens, fincas (farms), natural wonders, the home workplaces of artisans known both nationally and internationally, purebred horse stables, learning about the fine art of coffee tasting (as much as, if not more, intricate than wine tasting) and so much more! You’ll go home more knowledgeable experts on Panama than many who have lived here all their lives! When looking at the cost, compare it to just getting hotel rooms for 5 nights (even here!).  Click on the tab below for more info:


 ******************************

THE NEXT ENGLISH LITERATURE BOOK EXCHANGE WILL BE SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 2012
& Drop-in Socializing
Rino's Restaurant (corner of Fredrico Boyd & Calle 49)
Bring your English literature and DVD's to trade on a one for one basis, or just come out to show off your costume! Please feel free to drop-in, whether you have a book or not. This monthly event has become an excellent method for those visiting Panama to meet other Expats who have already made the move. We welcome Expats, new and "old" for a relaxing afternoon of socializing. Lots of parking, excellent food for those who wish to dine as well.
