What's up you guys? I'm Haley, and I'm Andrea, and this is Inhuman, a true friend podcast.

Welcome back everybody. Today's episode is a one that has been highly requested over the last two years we've been doing the podcast. Wow, two years. Yeah.

And it's one that I think a lot of people probably have heard of somewhat and it's technically not unsolved because technically it's not a foul play case, but a lot of people think it is. Okay. So yeah, okay.

This is the story of the disappearance and deaths of Chris Cremers and LaZanne Froon.

You may not recognize the names, but they are the Dutch hikers that went missing and were found dead in Panama. Okay.

Chris and LaZanne had been saving up for six months to take a fun friend's trip together to Panama.

They were hoping to learn Spanish, volunteer with children, and enjoy exploring a new country.

Two weeks into their six week trip, though, the two would go hiking on the LP and Nista trail, and this would be the last thing the two Dutch students did.

21 year old Chris Cremers grew up in Amherst fort, you trekked Netherlands. I'm sorry if I but you're trying to look it up, but I apologize if if I still butchered it.

Chris was creative and loved art. In 2014, she was attending the University of Utrecht and she had just gotten a degree in cultural social education, specializing in art education, which is so cool. Like I'm not just like that. Yeah.

She had recently moved into a dorm room with her friend and fellow student, LaZanne Froon.

22 year old LaZanne also grew up in Amherst fort, and she was intelligent and a passionate volleyball player. Nice.

She had graduated in September 2013 with a degree in applied psychology. Yeah, I knew you'd like that one.

The girls lived together and they worked together at a cafe and they were saving up their money to go on this trip to Panama as soon as Chris graduated. It was kind of like their graduation.

Yeah, celebration. Yeah. And like I said, they wanted to go to Panama because not only did they want to explore a new country, but they also wanted to improve their Spanish, volunteer with local children. They wanted to teach arts and crafts, and then also just celebrate their graduations.

That's amazing. The two arrived in Panama on March 15th, 2014, and they spent the first two weeks touring the country on their own.

On March 29th, they arrived in Boquette, Cheriki, where they would spend the next month living with a local family while volunteering with children.

So it was kind of like first two weeks they were explored on their own, and they were going to live with a family, and that's when the volunteering and stuff would really begin. Okay.

According to Strange Outdoors, Boquette or Boquette, I found it pronounced differently depending on like if the person was English or Spanish, but yeah, either way.

It is a small town, small mountain town. It's about 37 miles from the Costa Rican border. And the town is in Panama's green mountain highlands.

And it's about 3,900 feet above sea level. So it's up in the mountains, and it is beautiful.

There's cooler temperatures because they're up high, and it's a very popular town for tourists when they are visiting Panama.
