Dress code in the Republic of Panamá

 

What a beautiful custom to be nicely dressed, groomed and be admired! Your clothes don't necessarily have to be expensive, or from a brand name; just charming and clean.

 

Of course, if you are at the beach, park or outdoor adventure, you wear your shorts, jeans, sneakers or boots, but always in good taste.  But don´t you feel good with yourself when...

What a beautiful custom to be nicely dressed, groomed and be admired! Your clothes don't necessarily have to be expensive, or from a brand name; just charming and clean.

 

Of course, if you are at the beach, park or outdoor adventure, you wear your shorts, jeans, sneakers or boots, but always in good taste.  But don´t you feel good with yourself when going to dinner or any event, to look at the mirror and say:  "I look so good".  It´s just part of human nature.

 

Latin American people, in general, like to dress well, no matter the occasion, even to go in the metro.  Ladies with high heels, and men with tidy shoes.  We are, though, more flexible when we go to the country, but even there, we like to look our best.

 

Except for the mountains, the temperature in Panamá is very warm, which is why many visitors only wears Hawaiian shirts, hats and sandals, thinking that Panamá is only a beach or jungle area, not realizing that there is a separate social life everywhere they go.  Many visitors are surprisingly aware of the cosmopolitan city, even in places like Coronado, Pedasí, Chitré, David or Boquete, were a  dress code is always in effect.

The majority of expats in Placencia are from Europe, America, and many other regions and countries. Expats and Belizeans live next to each other in one common neighborhood. People here in Belize are pretty much from all over the world. Most Belizeans speak English, so communication between English-speaking expats and locals is not difficult.

It is important to know how everything seems to go here and that everything is possible, but when you come down to Nicaragua, you should know what the unwritten rules are. For example, it is nice to be a friend to everybody and say that you are a friend to children, guys who have no work and to people in the high society, and you can invite all these people together to your house. Doing this is possible, but it is not helpful because no Nicaraguan would do that. The different socio-economic classes of Nicaragua do not mix. They live together in the communities, but they do not intermingle or get into each other’s private lives.

Some countries are not foreign friendly in that there is political unrest, anti-American sentiment and difficult languages to deal with. Money exchanges add to the likelihood you can be taken advantage of.

 

Sometimes laws are at odds with a foreigner's comprehension. A person should do some homework to make sure they enter a foreign country with the proper documents.

 

Climates and diseases are reasons one country is wonderful for retirees and tourists and others are not so popular. Safety is a concern on the minds of many people when they travel. Thinking about safety you want to make sure the country is not rife with political unrest; active volcanoes, has earthquakes, landslides, floods, hurricanes or typhoons.  This covers a large number of the places that people often consider retiring in.

 

If you like cold you will find a place that is cold is often quite expensive to live. Often they are remote, heating is costly, clothing is expensive and unless you are extremely rugged it is not place people want to visit.

 

What makes say Brazil not as popular as Panama for most Americans it that, while it is beautiful, there is often political unrest. There are floods, landslides, and even resentment of Americans. A place to visit, not to live.

 

The cost of living is to high to afford Denmark, or many other European countries. America doesn't have any place I could find with the amenities, and comfort of Panama.

 

The worst places to live are places with extreme weather, high cost of living, too remote or have serious  political unrest.
