Panama Travel Podcast with Javier Moreno

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 accu
