HERE’S WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL IN THIS INTERVIEW:
- Big changes to the Friendly Nations Visa in Panama and why it’s important to listen to the professionals when it comes to immigration processes.
- What’s next for Panama? Is it still a great place to buy real estate? and is living tax-free at the top of living a free life!
- Brazil: freedom, food and safety. Why living in one of the safest areas of Brazil has been one of the most interesting times as a family!
- Did we mention Food; Churrasco... Mikkel talks about having an indoor BBQ in his home and enjoying some of the best meat ever, being one of the highlights of living in Brazil.
- Listen in as Mikkel talks about buying real estate in one of the most beautiful places in Brazil and having the ability to walk out your back door to some of the best beaches in the world.
- Cost of living in Brazil, you will be pleasantly surprised!
- Children, how quickly they adapt to the language, food and surroundings and why you shouldn’t fear their ability to make these changes.
- The truth about government-run schools, the damage that can be done by forcing your children to attend and how a new expat international school based on Socratic ideas can change your children’s lives forever.
- Heading home to Panama and the work that lays ahead of us, and how excited we are to be going home!

We’ll tour high-growth developments, visit a private reforestation project, and get boots-on-the-ground access to one of Latin America’s fastest-rising economies.
