About the show

A podcast about travelling in Panama as a resident rather than a visitor, hosted by Javier Moreno. The country is a narrow land bridge between North and South America, its interior steep and rugged, its climate tropical and humid. The Panama Canal links the North Atlantic Ocean with the North Pacific Ocean, and the landscape around it shapes every journey. The show covers a wide arc: Panama City, the densely populated lands around the Canal, David in the far west, and the sparsely inhabited Darién to the east. Javier returns to familiar places, letting the differences between city and countryside emerge over time. He notes the Spanish and Indigenous languages heard along the way. The podcast unfolds across seasons, moving with the rainy months from May to January and the short dry season from January to May. Returning to places means noticing what changes: rivers rising in the interior mountains, coastal plains heating up, roads getting harder to travel. Knowledge accumulates slowly, as it should in a country this varied. Javier Moreno lives in Panama and stays for two years, moving between cities, coastlines and smaller towns on a route that follows the seasons. Not a week-long visit — Javier is there in every kind of weather, working out where to eat on an ordinary Tuesday, which train to take, what a festival actually feels like from the pavement. A new episode arrives every day. Each one is short and specific: one neighbourhood, one journey, one meal, one museum worth the detour — with the practical detail that matters. What it costs. When it closes. Whether the queue is worth it. What to do when it rains. Every episode carries a full transcript and chapter markers. ☕ Enjoying the show?
