Ryan & I recently had the opportunity to visit the islands off the coast of Panama known as Bocas Del Toro. We chose there to visit for my love of clear blue water and Ryan's need of a good surf break. The fact that their economy is growing didn't hurt either. We realized right away it had everything we were looking for to build a future. Amazing jungle scenery, warm, clear water, friendly locals, dollar beers, music, artists, great food....the list goes on. We pooled our savings together and are hoping to buy a perfectly beautiful wooden house. It's set directly in the caribbean ocean. The land is perfect to build a couple casitas in the hill surrounded by nature, each with a deck and a hammock, of course :) We have plenty of space to build a bar/restaurant where the music will play and the food will be locally sourced and delicious. Ryan will take surfers out to the breaks around the island and guests on snorkel trips. I will cook, ensure everyone has what they need and are having an amazing experience. We will hire the locals in need of a job, local furniture makers, gardeners to host a garden, the woman down the street who makes amazing johnny cakes! This is how we see our future, as a self sufficient lifestyle that escapes the trappings of "life" or "work" as we know it in the states. It is so important to us. We want to enjoy life to the fullest and help others do the same. We don't want to wake up to find life has passed us by while we work paycheck to paycheck for someone else. We are in charge of our own destiny, we just need your help! This is just a start for our first casita and additional funds will go toward additional casitas and our restaurant/bar . Thank you for your contribution to a young couple's dream. We feel very blessed that you are now a part of it!
