Panama’s Secrets are Hiding on an Unknown Road… And it Blew My Mind! – EP.381
EDITORIAL SUMMARY
This Central America episode follows a motorcycle journey into Panama’s highlands, where the search is for lesser-known roads and scenery. Local guide Kerya helps reveal places the rider says she might otherwise have missed.
About this film
The film centres on a journey through the Panamanian highlands in search of roads that are not widely known. Its focus is exploration rather than a named destination or a detailed itinerary: the description offers no road names, town stops or account of how the route unfolds. Kerya, a local with time to show the rider around, is central to the outing and to the discovery of the area. The episode belongs to the creator’s ongoing solo motorcycle journey around the world, begun in April 2017 after leaving Australia on a BMW F800GS. She calls that open-ended journey “Are We There Yet”; the series listing places this instalment in Central America. Recorded in July 2025, the 23-minute film is a regional exploration within that wider trip.
The journey
The available account establishes the broad setting—the Panamanian highlands—and the purpose of the ride: finding less familiar roads and taking in the scenery. It does not identify a start point, destination, distance, road surface or riding conditions, so the film’s route cannot be described more precisely from the supplied information. Instead, the journey is framed around being shown around by someone who knows the area. That local guidance shapes the episode’s progression, turning the search for hidden roads into an exploration of scenery the rider might otherwise have missed. The description presents this as a shared outing, while the larger context is a solo trip around the world.
People, places and moments
Panama’s highlands are the defining setting, and the scenery is a major reason for the journey. Kerya is identified as a local who had time to accompany the rider; no further details about their relationship or the places visited are provided. The episode’s appeal is therefore grounded in the combination of motorcycle travel, local knowledge and the prospect of discovering roads beyond the familiar. For viewers choosing a film, it offers a Panama-focused detour within a long-running international journey, without the supplied description promising a particular challenge, encounter or destination.
