Watch Programs about Panam a and Panama Real Estate on www.LatinRe.TVThis post is a little more personal, but a personal touch to the sometimes stringent world of the Internet, where an algorithm runs the better part of my professional life, is always a pleasant surprise. Tonight I walked to Blockbuster with Cate, one of my best friends since childhood that is in Panama visiting. As we toted along my mini schnauzer Tico, who is physically unable to walk in a straight line, we began to talk about the weather in Panama. The rainy season, from around June to December, can get a bit humid, but the Panamanian "summer" is absolutely delightful. The sun is shining and a constant breeze is continuously cooling you off. Mid conversation, Cate asked me if there were hurricanes in Panama, and I said, "Nope! None of that!" Another plus about this country.Cate was impressed, especially since she has spent a lot of time in Florida, the state that Panama is most commonly compared to. Not only does ...

2007-01-31 00:42:00
Check out Latin America Real Estate TVPanama Real Estate Since the Spanish Conquest, Panama has held a privileged geographic, commercial and cultural position. Panama was first visited by Europeans in 1501 on an expedition led by Rodrigo de Bastidas. Santa Maria la Antigua del Darien was the first city on “terra firme”, founded by Christopher Colombus. After crossing Panama, Vasco Nuñez arrived at the Pacific Ocean, and it was then that the Isthmus gained importance as a passageway, which is still true today. From this era, the first “Panama Real Estate” was erected, including numerous stone buildings. In the 16th century, these buildings were part of Panama’s city center, known today as Panama City “La Vieja,” which was destroyed by the pirate Henry Morgan in 1671. Nowadays, these buildings provide Panama City with a beautiful historical landmark. The total destruction and looting led to the construction of a new Panama City in 1673, which is better known today as Cas...

But growth and prices are slowing down.BY CHRONICLE STAFFDespite growing political tension in some countries, the real estate sector in Latin America continues to see strong growth.

Hello everyone!After some thought, I figured that I should introduce myself, since I'll be writing the blog! My name is Mona Sutherland , and I celebrated my Panniversary (anniversary here in Panama) of a year and a half December 2nd. I think I watched Jeopardy and ate Sushi Itto, two of my favorite pasttimes. I love Panama and encourage you to visit if you never have!I studied Psychology at UCLA, and am currently completing my MBA at the University of Louisville. I have 1 miniature schnauzer named Tico, and three cats, two from the street and one darling Persian. Their names are Oca Loca, Pepper, and Duchess (guess which one the Persian is). I swear I'm not a cat lady, at least not yet. I don' t have a rocking chair and can't crochet, so I think I'm in the clear. I work for WSI as the Search Marketing Specialist and will be handing the SEO and PPC for Latin America Real Estate TV. Please feel free to ask my anything!
