From Seattle WA, to South America sept-dec 2013, Looking For Spanish Speakers ! CAR

SORRY TO POST HERE

I don't know yet where else to go,

Me and a friend are planning a road trip from Seattle all over south america. don't know exact details but some thing like this, buy a car here modify it, drive to the south america, and sell the car in Paraguay (in contact with one of the dealers over there). and fly back home.

so far its just me and a friend, but we are looking for at least one more person who speaks Spanish, Preferably from Seattle area, (Oregon, BC, is cool too, that way we could meet together couple time before the trip).

Thanks george

Hey George

No need to be sorry, this is place to be when searching for travelers in your area, especially for an overland adventure such as this!

I most definitely might be interested. I speak Spanish fluently, live in Everett, WA and have actually made this trip before, but on Motorcycle. However I am leaving for Australia in January, 2013 for 6-12 months. Though, there no reason why I couldn't come back to Seattle in time to depart for another epic South American adventure. My girlfriend has expressed the urge to travel South America though, and I'd love to do it again. And I've got lots of ideas on how to make it work really well in a car. What do you think about 2 (awesome) people? I'm 26 next month, and Kristi will be 24 in January.

Contact me anyway you feel like.

Arriving in panama nov 15, then slowing down and taking my time in south america.

I am travelling by motorcycle however, but a friend on the road is a friend on the road.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
