Sunday, April 8, 2018

Dear  <em>International Living</em> Reader,

It's the beginning of April and spring should be in the air. But in many pa=
rts of the U.S. and Canada, it certainly doesn't feel like it. This winter =
just doesn't seem willing to let up. In fact, winters seem to be getting co=
lder and crazier every year.

So it's no surprise that people are looking for ways to say goodbye to wint=
er altogether and live sunnier, more relaxed lives in parts of the world th=
at Jack Frost simply doesn't visit.

People like Jean and her husband John. They were sick of suffering through =
Wisconsin's freezing winters, so they decided to trade them for a life by t=
he beach in sunny Panama. It's a decision they're delighted they made.

Read their story below=E2=80=A6

Declan Aylward

Managing Editor, IL Postcards

P.S. We're gearing up to host our Fast Track Panama Conference in Panama Ci=
ty this summer. It's the best way for you to kick start your dream retireme=
nt in this perfect-weather paradise. Over three intensive, interactive days=

Trading Cold Weather for Relaxing by the Beach in Pedas=C3=AD, Panama

By Jim Gault

Jean and John Brookman were getting tired of the cold winters in Wisconsin =
and started to dream about moving somewhere with a better year-round climat=
e. They considered several Southern states but they did not want any tornad=
oes or hurricanes, and wanted more bang for their buck.

After getting information from International Living , they decided to visit=
 Panama in March 2012. They were drawn by the lower cost of living, the fri=
endly nature of the local people, a vibrant expat community, and the benefi=
ts and discounts of the Pensionado Program.

They knew they absolutely had to have an ocean view because they had been l=
iving in a scenic lakefront home for the previous 28 years. After searching=
 several areas, they decided on a waterfront community in the peaceful vill=
age of Pedas=C3=AD.



View of Venao beach from one of Pedas=C3=AD's waterfront restaurants.

They were prudent and did not buy on that first trip. Instead, they went ho=
me and considered many factors before deciding to purchase an ocean view lo=
t in June 2012. A similar lot and view in some Southern states would have c=
ost at least three times more money. They waited two years and then started=
 to interview several builders for their dream home. Construction started i=
n 2016 and they moved to Pedas=C3=AD full-time in 2017.

When all was said and done, they had built a custom house on an ocean view =
lot for $330,000.

Their picturesque two-bedroom, two-bathroom home is everything they expecte=
d. They overlook the ocean and watch the sunrise over the water with a cup =
of coffee from their rear veranda. They enjoy happy hour at a local bar mos=
t days, watching large ships in the distance and small local fishing boats,=
 whales, and flocks of pelicans flying in single file formation closer to s=
hore. The ocean breezes keep everything cool. They don't use much air condi=
tioning, and they don't have any expensive heating bills like they did in W=
isconsin.

Life in Pedas=C3=AD is much different than when John was an assistant servi=
ce manager at a busy car dealer and Jean was a Human Resources recruiter. T=
hey have more time to relax, more time spent outdoors, more sunshine in win=
ter, and more time for meals and conversations with friends.

The couple has become integrated into many aspects of the Panamanian cultur=
e, participating with other expats in the festive Destile de Carretas (cart=
 parade), Carnival activities, and attending the uproarious musical bingo a=
t Smiley's with DJ Daryl and his wife Suzanne.

They are extremely happy they made the decision to exchange cold winters fo=
r relaxing by the beach in Pedas=C3=AD, Panama.

Trading Cold Weather for Relaxing by the Beach in Pedas=C3=AD, Panama</stro=
ng><br />
By Jim Gault</p>

	<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">
	 Jean and John Brookman were getting tired of the cold winters in Wisconsi=
n and started to dream about moving somewhere with a better year-round clim=
ate. They considered several Southern states but they did not want any torn=
adoes or hurricanes, and wanted more bang for their buck. </p>

		<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">After getting information f=
rom <em>International Living</em>, they decided to visit Panama in March 20=
12. They were drawn by the lower cost of living, the friendly nature of the=
 local people, a vibrant expat community, and the benefits and discounts of=
 the <em>Pensionado</em> Program. </p>

		<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">They knew they absolutely h=
ad to have an ocean view because they had been living in a scenic lakefront=
 home for the previous 28 years. After searching several areas, they decide=
d on a waterfront community in the peaceful village of Pedas=C3=AD. </p>

			 <p align=3D"center" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em"> <img src=3D"http://www=

th=3D"400" alt=3D"" /> <br>
	 <em>View of Venao beach from one of Pedas=C3=AD's waterfront restaurants.=
</em></p>



		<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">They were prudent and did n=
ot buy on that first trip. Instead, they went home and considered many fact=
ors before deciding to purchase an ocean view lot in June 2012. A similar l=
ot and view in some Southern states would have cost at least three times mo=
re money. They waited two years and then started to interview several build=
ers for their dream home. Construction started in 2016 and they moved to Pe=
das=C3=AD full-time in 2017.</p>

		<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">When all was said and done,=
 they had built a custom house on an ocean view lot for $330,000.</p>

		<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">Their picturesque two-bedro=
om, two-bathroom home is everything they expected. They overlook the ocean =
and watch the sunrise over the water with a cup of coffee from their rear v=
eranda. They enjoy happy hour at a local bar most days, watching large ship=
s in the distance and small local fishing boats, whales, and flocks of peli=
cans flying in single file formation closer to shore. The ocean breezes kee=
p everything cool. They don't use much air conditioning, and they don't hav=
e any expensive heating bills like they did in Wisconsin. </p>

		<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">Life in Pedas=C3=AD is much=
 different than when John was an assistant service manager at a busy car de=
aler and Jean was a Human Resources recruiter. They have more time to relax=
, more time spent outdoors, more sunshine in winter, and more time for meal=
s and conversations with friends. </p>

		<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">The couple has become integ=
rated into many aspects of the Panamanian culture, participating with other=
 expats in the festive <em>Destile de Carretas</em> (cart parade), Carnival=
 activities, and attending the uproarious musical bingo at Smiley's with DJ=
 Daryl and his wife Suzanne. </p>

		<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">They are extremely happy th=
ey made the decision to exchange cold winters for relaxing by the beach in =
Pedas=C3=AD, Panama.</p>

		<p align=3D"left" style=3D"margin-bottom:1em">Editor's note: If the idea =
of a relaxing life in Panama appeals to you, then the <em>International Liv=
