The guy next to explained that what the DJ was saying meant that he thought he was doing a fine job and was just congratulating himself. During my latest trip through Panama last month I took a few weeks to laze away on the beaches in Bocas del … [Read more...] about Dancehall Party Fluffy Divas on Bastimentos Island, Panama
