Jessica and Kalifa, really fun girls I met in San Jose who were on my rafting tour and I continued to travel together from Puerto Viejo in CR onto Bocas del Toro in Panama. I really liked this place. Chilled vibe, friendly locals. So much nicer than Utila! Although no whale sharks. We stayed at the party hostel Mondo Taitu on Isla Colon - the main island for 3 nights and then onto Bocas Bound on Isla Bastimentos. That was quite isolated and we had to walk 2 hrs thru knee deep mud trails and beaches to get to town but it was fun and really beautiful. There is a cool organic farm in Bastimentos called Up on the Hill which we really liked. Selling lots of organic stuff and the best truffles in the world.
After 2 days on the more tranquil Bastimentos we went back to Colon and met up with Federico, a friend from London for the day. Had an 80's night party and then next day went to a gorgeous beach. There is loads to do here, and probably my favourite place so far.
Beach in Tulum still better though, maybe!
