    Also look at members of her family and if you see aunts,cousins or even brothers that look very similar be cautious. Sometimes the families can be very close!

    I dont know how long you know this girl or how adjusted you are to the culture,but be careful. If she is asking you for credit cards or money for her family step out of this immediately. I have talked to men from the states who have been drained dry,then end up living in a tico shack. I have dated many many beautiful girls alike and most of them all want that little bit of money,no matter how little it is. If you are one of those lonely gringos you are a meal ticket for this girl and her family. Be careful!

    Did I hear safety checked? You gotta hear this, I was once driving in santa ana and to the amazement of my eyes I looked to my left and saw an old car with and I repeat no doors on it! The car was completely open and exposed yet being driven by someone. Those guys in safety inspection are really doing a great job. I must admit it saves on airconditioning. Dont worry about anything,but I would call a custom broker to confirm the value of your car before entering to see if it is worth buying or driving your car down.

    Nobody is making a million dollars from this website in a tv show timeframe,please.
    House hunters is an interesting show and lol they might even give you some free exposure but whose thinking. Maybe you would even sell some of your concrete. Wait lets consult with ice maybe thay can monopolize the show. Just food for thought.

    Final statement. My conscience is larger than all of yours put together and your snyde comments are not what matters here, Im glad you werent my parents wooosh!,helping people does and the sooner the better because if I hear one more victim story about costa rica I think I am going to puke.
    It is a privilidge for a country like costa rica to have affluent people and sucessful and law obiding people who want no more than basic safety,no more than anywhere else and respect for ourselves and to enjoy in peace what the place has to offer. Well they cant handle that and in panama after talking to several police and seeing them in action send over a couple of your lovely ticos maybe they will find correction here.
    Have a nice day. end.

    If you live in a very dangerous place like costa rica with all of the home invasions and car jackings and robberies at gun point you may want to be concerned about that.
    Myself as a victim and after seeig the lack of concern of the authorities there made the smart choice by getting out. Your question to me is ill in nature. This forum is getting international attention I promise you.
    Hope this helps.

    Well Mr scott the definition of rape from an online dictionary Abusive or improper treatment; violation: a rape of justice. Im sorry you thought of a different definition. This was my comparison nothing sexual on my end I referenced a woman as a violation is a violation and as most commonly described.. I assume you were trying to psychoanalyze me. Darien is far from panama city and boquette areas in a secluded colombian border area and colon is also a secluded area it is the free zone area and there are poor people who live around it. oh well.
    There is infrastructure here installed by the usa unlike costa rica which is failing in evey way,they cant even finish one highway.
    Police here are in full force and very friendly and assisting. Unlike the little creeps running aroung costa rica.

    Well Mr Sprite, I would not say laments as I could care less if you want to know the truth about leaving costa rica as it was not worthy of my existence. However the word is “violation” I think I now know how a raped woman would kind of feel.
    When I would project mutual basic respect as any human would like to receive in this foreign land and the “reality” of what it is and the outright slap in the face of downright lack of concern and regard for life and limb and “property rights” by what is suppose to be the concern of society,I dont care if they are rich or poor,but raping ones self worth is unacceptable to me. Maybe you cant understand what I am saying. I dont need to pay for that. Much less live in it. You only live once and you need to feel you are in the right place,this is living. Not to mention the obvious over pricing and lack of respect for foreigners by the ticos. I saw i lived it, I know. And I am not the only one by far, I hope maybe what im saying benefits you too.
    I have no reason to fabricate anything and the panamanian people are much nicer by far,they are used to americans,however the driving here is madness,but I can deal with that, and you can live away from the poor people and the police here are very active much stronger being paramilitary and I see them in action. Sowhat ever you do, There is somebody coming off a plane right now interested what do they know.A yes costa rica paradise or roll of the dice?
    Please think about this.
    Have a nice day.

    Give it up, the james bond filming went fine in panama. Accept the truth guys. The police in costa rica who are suppose to protect you are scrawny litle old underqualified creeps,that eat sausages and juice for dinner,the issue is that the society reflects itself in what you see and I see a lack of respect for themselves and bitterness.
    God bless you all.

    Travelling to panama by car no problem. You need to contact a custom broker in panama an they will advise you. They charge about $120.00 for the paperwork and in david panama you will enter immigration and that is about it.
    Just make sure you have your title to the car. but again the custom broker in panama will advise you.
    You can stay in panama with the car for 90 days,extensions are available,speak to the custom broker in panama.
    You will need a paper from the costa rica national registry showing the car is clear.
    a costa rican attorney can get this for you.
    But again first consult with a panama custom broker.
    Hope it helps.

    Unfortunately noriega didnt invade costa rica years ago as he did panama.
    Too bad,then costa rica would have infrastructure,better roads and the ticos would be more used to americans and foreigners in general.
    So it looks like they have to pay for it,instead of the military renovation.
    cheerio
