Hello dear readers,
I have stumbled upon expat-blog.com and thought it would be a good idea to connect and gain further knowledge from people who have been expats for a while.
I am currently in my mid-20's and have come to a point in my life where I have realized the city life is not for me. Fortunately, I have picked a career path that can allow me to work from pretty much from anywhere as it is all online.
My goal is to save up enough money over the next couple of years so I am able to make a move to Panama with my parents, who will be retiring soon. I have done as much research as I can over the past few months but I still have a few questions left outstanding and would hope someone with experience could help me out.
First of all, in regards to moving to Panama, and crossing multiple international border, what are some things that I should look out for? I am planning to purchase a cube van and do the move myself, but I am worried about the any laws in regards to moving household belongings across borders. This is my biggest worry, so please help me out!
Second, I was curious about the internet service in the Santiago District area. How reliable is it for someone who will be making a living over the internet?
I should note that I'm not planning to live in the heart of Santiago, but further south out of the city.
Are there any cable companies willing to run cables at a cost if needed?
I think I will leave it at that for now because those are my biggest concerns. Any input/suggestions are greatly appreciated!
P.S - Don't be put off by my age. Rest assured I am serious about this and am not looking to waste anyone's time
Regards,
Rez
