Seriously considering moving to Panama. Been spending a lot of time in Mexico/Belize and have been to Costa Rica. After lots of looking the area around David seems like it might be a good fit. I am not into big city living, I like the idea that it is close to the water and also to the mountain/volcano area. Not really stuck on living with other american expats, are there a lot homes available for lease? I speak enough spanish to get by and will enjoy learning more spanish. How is the health care?
