Photoblog: Writing in the rain is as tough as you might imagine

Writing from the Road: Panama

• Arrival in Panama City and Taxi to the Hostel
• $6 to $80: Eating in Panama City is what you make of it
• Photoblog: Writing in the rain is as tough as you might imagine

While I am trying to focus on boring, practical advice in my series of articles about Panama at this blog, my husband is publishing a fun blog here (http://writeintherain.blogspot.com). He utilizes many more photos and covers the crazy events that occur out here from time to time, like the snake in the rafters, and he named and documented the various bugs that kept us company in our last apartment outside Boquete. The amount and variety of bugs here is truly amazing.

It’s called “Write in the Rain” because he is down here to complete his dissertation for his PhD. However, with all the amazing people who live here and present us with wonderful opportunities to procrastinate, I’m not sure how sucessful we will be with focusing on our own projects.

After all, yoga practice, acting opportunities (and here), organic and craft markets, potlucks, tapas nights,and  hiking are activities that are much much more compelling than sitting at our computers writing!

But we battle procrastination and keep our extracurricular activities going while maintaining a balance (we hope) between fun and working toward our goals.
