Perched dramatically atop Lima’s Pacific cliffs, Miraflores is one of Lima’s most popular districts, with its green expanse of the Malecón, coastal views, and some of the city’s best food spots and attractions.

On my way back from Chile to the US, I stumbled across a flight deal with a 12-hour daytime layover in Panama City. Being the opportunist that I am, I took it as a chance to explore — from watching massive ships transit the Panama Canal to wandering through Casco Viejo, all before heading back to the airport. Traveling with just a 25L backpack made it easy to be spontaneous, and this post shares exactly how I spent my solo day in Panama.
