Bus2Antarctica: Isla Coiba — Panama’s Prison Park
Andrew Evans has reached Panama , and it about to cross into South America. Here, he explores the former penal colony of Isla Coiba. Whenever people talk about the phrase “comfort zone,” I think about sharks. Most travelers use the term to compare cultures–how in some countries, everyone’s up in your face while in others, they allow you breathing room. Through personal experience, I have learned that my comfort zone with a shark is about 20 feet away. If they start getting any closer, my heart races a bit, I breathe a little faster and I start trying to locate my nearest exit.
