I’m Kelly Janine. When I first began contemplating moving from the United States to Panama, I felt a mixture of deep excitement and overwhelming anxiety.
Every YouTube video gave a different opinion, every forum had conflicting stories about visas, and I kept wondering if I was missing crucial document steps. That’s when I decided to approach my relocation with intention and organization.
I am not an immigration attorney, financial advisor, real estate professional (in Panama), healthcare professional, or relocation specialist. I am a woman in her 50s documenting the real journey, doing the research, asking the tough questions, and creating the companion guide I wished I had when I first started.
I'm documenting my Panama relocation research and planning in real time—the questions, the discoveries, and the lessons as they unfold. Come along for the journey on The Next Chapter with Kelly Janine.
