Panama 2: Bocas del Toro — Island Hopping, Bat Caves & Caribbean Chaos

Send us Fan Mail Bocas del Toro became one of the most unexpectedly emotional stops of my trip. I flew in over turquoise water, wandered Bocas Town, then hopped a water taxi—spotting dolphins on the way—to a hillside jungle hostel that felt like a dream. In this episode, I share the rhythm of island life: the treehouse rooms, the dinners where strangers become friends, the jungle hikes, the quiet Christmas Day, the chaotic Christmas Eve, and my absolutely-not moment with the giant waterslide. I talk through the different islands, the people I met, and the bat cave adventure that still makes me laugh. If you’ve ever wondered what Bocas really feels like, this is it.
