About Us

Hello, I’m Dave! We are Canadians living in Panama. My wife, Elizabeth, is Panamanian but we’ve spent most of our lives abroad. As we got older, we decided that living in Panama would be the best thing for us and the family come retirement. It’s a bit too cold up north for us older folk!
When we arrived here, we decided to explore Santiago de Veraguas since that’s where my wife is originally from. During our travels throughout the province we discovered a little paradise in Lago Bay. We knew that was the place we wanted to build our dream home.
The location is perfect, with many nice beaches around, diving, surfing etc. It’s also a rapidly growing area with lots of development going on so we wanted to get in there early while we had the chance!
The plan was to retire several months ago around when we completed the house. But as life would have it, that’s still a while away and it’s a bit too much house for just one person (my wife) to take care of as my work required me to be away at times.

While it would be nice to have the kids takeover, they’ve got their jobs and families to manage and although it makes a great vacation spot, we really hope that somebody can make better use of the place than we are with only the yearly family visits.
In the end, we decided to settle down in the city of Santiago, in smaller place that we could more easily manage. As painful as the decision is to sell the house, we think that the best thing for us is to let it go and our hope is that you will have a great spot in Panama to call your own.
