Panama -

  1. unlike many natives in Central & S Am, the Kuna control their homeland-- kuna yala, which includes the San Blas Archipelago. Kuna women are known for their beaded leggings & their signature molas, intricate appliqued blouses. the Mola can be traced back to Kuna women's geometric body painting; with the arrival of European settlers, the designs transferred onto cloth.
  2. Sapibenega- a small island w/a white sand beach, has 13 simple cabins w/ wooden floors, bamboo walls & shutters, solar electricity
