When we arrived in Panama at the end of January, we weren't planning to stay very long, so our hotel room-sized casita with kitchenette at Paraiso was the perfect spot. It was a bit of a drive into Coronado, but our little home was lovely and clean and there is a restaurant right there on site, as well as lots of other guests who became our friends. Fast-forward two months, and we were ready to spread out a little bit -- and we finally got to do that yesterday when we moved into a house!
We worked out a stellar deal with the owners (wonderful people from Canada), so we have what might be the lowest rent in Coronado in exchange for doing some work on their yard. Brent is going to landscape, and I'm going to paint some murals on the pump house.
The best part? Not the pool (though that is awesome). Not the space (though that was necessary). Not the full kitchen (though...wow. Wow, it's nice to have a big fridge and a stove again). Rather, the best part is the location: right on the golf course in Coronado, and just a ripe mango's throw from Gorgona, where we are spending an increasing amount of time...
