For the 3rd day of the Panama Challenge, I'm going to briefly talk about Panama being a Tropical paradise filled with all sorts of vegetation and beautiful flowers. Soooo, that inspired me to wear this leaf patterned skirt I have had since forever. I paired it with this green top to make sure nobody could pinch me this St. Pat's day! And to finish it off, I decided to take pics with these beautiful flowers my mom gave me that go along with the vegetation theme.

So, as I said before, Panama is a Tropical paradise! The weather in Panama is quite stable and can be expressed in one word: HOT! jajajaja. Temperatures usually vary between 25 and 30 degrees Celsius and the humidity is always high. We also only have two seasons: the dry season and the rainy season. So basically, its warm all year round :)
Panama also has lots of vegetation and jungle areas. Over 30% of our national territory is protected by national parks and reserves. Its wonderful to live in a country with so many trees and green areas, especially since we have a house in the mountains that is surrounded by relaxing vegetation :)

Panama also has many beautiful flowers. I always enjoy looking at "veraneras" because they are so colorful and abundant!

Another interesting thing about them is that if you look up close, they have a mini white flower within them.

The last thing I want to mention is the "flower of the holy spirit". This is Panama's national flower and it looks as if there is a dove in the middle. I think its a fascinating flower to be honest with you... I mean it has a dove in the center, how cool is that?!
Well that is the interesting fact about Panama for today! Thanks for reading all the long things I have been writing this week :)

Here are all the ways in which I've worn this skirt:
