FYI - The FARC control 1/5 of the country
Are you serious? Are they moving there from Colombia?
I’ve been through the canal on a sailboat several times, a process that takes about ten days more or less, and requires the skipper to travel around quite a bit of the country by boat and taxi. I love the place. Except for Colon, the place is great. Inexpensive, any climate you desire (dialed in by altitude and coast etc), friendly people who mostly speak Ingles....
Thumbs up for a 2nd home or condo, or expat relocation potential.
