Welcome to Hola Panama: Build Your Network Before You Move!

Maybe you’ve been researching a move to Panama for years, maybe you already own but havent made the move yet, or maybe you are just starting to explore what life would be like IF you were to take the move.

Welcome to Hola Panama.

Hola Panama Logo

Why Hola Panama Exists

Relocating isn’t just a move — it’s a massive life decision. Its leaving your friends, family, and communities behind and taking a risk in a brand new country where you dont know a single person. Its pouring thru hundreds of hours of research on Youtube, websites, and social media, trying to figure out the “real” story. It’s wondering out loud “are we crazy for even thinking about this?”

You are not crazy.

And we want to show you that there are literally thousands of people considering Panama. Some of whom may live in your town. Some of whom may be moving for the same reasons you are. And many of whom are going down the same path in terms of research, visits, lawyers, real estate agents, developers, and more research.

We want to connect like minded individuals exploring the same solution to help them share resources, share experiences, and maybe even share a cerbeza or a walk on the beach together, here in Panama.

And if you’re like most future expats we meet, you’re not looking for drama, negativity, or wasted time.
You’re looking for clarity, real relationships, and a real shot at making Panama work for you.

Most “expat groups” are flooded with complainers and tire-kickers.
That’s not us.

At Hola Panama, we’re connecting future movers — people thinking ahead, taking action, and building a life they’re proud of.
No noise. No nonsense. Just forward motion, shared insight, and hopefully a new friend or two.

What to Expect

This is a virtual meetup via Zoom, no more than 20 people per call. There is no cost whatsoever. The only requirements: Make sure to have your camera and mic on and your hair looking great because you are about to meet some future friends in Panama!

Here’s What You Can Expect:

  • Genuine connections with people who are serious about relocating — not just dreaming about it.
  • Real conversations: This is about your life, your move, your next chapter — not a sales pitch.
  • Expert insights: Each session  will feature guest speakers (immigration experts, real estate specialists, relocation pros) and always focus on actionable information, and even more importantly: Connection. 

We want you to leave the call feeling like you know a little bit more about Panama than when you started. And we’re also hoping that you leave the call feeling like you may have just met a future friend!

How to Get the Most Out of Hola Panama

This isn’t a spectator sport. Show up ready to engage.

  • Be Open: This isn’t Instagram. You’ll get more when you show up authentically.
  • Come Prepared: Bring a few questions you’d ask someone who’s already moved. It makes the conversations sharper and more useful.
  • Stay Positive: We’re building, not complaining. Solutions over problems.
  • Stay Curious: Everyone’s story has something to teach you if you’re paying attention.

This is the group that moves. Not the group that waits.

This Group Is Not A Business

You already know our business. We sell real estate. That’s all we do. This is our attempt to help in your research and hopefully to SHOW you how many awesome people are moving down here every day. And hopefully, to help you make a friend or two before you arrive.
