CONCLUSION

Self-learning is such an important topic to me, considering I have a rather short experience with formal education. I started failing out of school at 12 and by 15 I was completely done with high school and never went back. I have had to continually push myself harder than my peers to learn more and more so I could stay competitive in the marketplace and increase my own income.

Veritas Panama - Offgrid Community

After 17 months of bureaucracy, my partners and I successfully got our permits for Veritas Panama! This is the fully off-grid community we are building in the highlands of Panama.

We have already started building the roads, subdividing the lots, installing the septic and water, and even installing solar panels, so everything is independent of the power grid!

The site we chose is unbelievable; we are up at a flat plateau about a thousand feet up a mountain with incredible unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean. To go to the beach, it is just 15 minutes down to the water.

We have mature fruit trees on site, including these gorgeous 200-year-old mango trees and many other things, such as avocado trees, papayas, and delicious tropical fruits.

You can find out more information and contact us at VeritasPanama.com

But please be aware that there are only 100 home sites, and without even talking about this to the general public, a lot of the lots are already sold…

So if you dream of living in a completely off-grid community, enjoying the beautiful weather, close to the beach, being food, water, and energy independent, and want to have like-minded and cool neighbours, people who respect personal, medical, and economic freedoms, then I want you to contact us at VeritasPanama.com today
