Mensagem: |
Thanks! Just moved to Panama, so I have been away from the Internet for a while. I am living in the province of Chiriqui, near the border with Costa Rica and about an hour by bus from the city of David. Lots of foreigners here. maybe 10% of the population. Yes, I have met a Brazilian here. Both words have interesting meanings completely unrelated to the question. A government agency can condemn a house, mine, building, bridge, etc. if it believes it is unsafe to use. A man of his convictions is a man of principles, someone with a sense of honor and obligation to others. Weird, huh? |
