Discovershare , It looks like you are having a Fun Trip there from the pictures !! Enjoy every min of it , Your Kids will learn so much and remember that trip for a lifetime . I know I was 10 when my Family left for Brasil back in 1987 , We Drove a 1985 ford F150 van From Florida to Southern Brasil , The only place we did not drive was through Columbia , Back in 87 Panama was bad enough but Columbia they said NO !!, we put our van on a barge and flew to Ecuador and picked up the van and continued . If you go through Bolivia be careful with the roads there especially near La Paz, That was the scariest part of the whole trip. We put almost 13000 miles on the van and took about 32 days, needless to say we did not spend much time in the countries but we had FUN !! , We sold the van and Flew Back to Florida. Again Be Safe and Enjoy the Trip of a Lifetime !!!

This was an interesting post on finding waste vegetable oil in Mexico and C.America. Where are you tanks mounted? Seems like you need all the space you can get in your vehicle with seven travelers and I'm sure you found a creative solution.

We have one 40 gallon tank that sits in the bed of the truck on the driver's side. We built a camper on the back of our truck, and the tank is enclosed with access from the back of the truck. Above it is storage space.

Stability Comes From Staying in One Place (And Other Ridiculous Myths)

Quetzaltenango-38.jpg


“I happen to think it is a bit irresponsible of you to put your kids future in jeopardy just to satisfy your need for travel. What you're doing is just risky."

was the response one commenter made on an article I recently wrote for BootsnAll about letting travel transform your life.

It’s not the first time we’ve received comments like this regarding our family lifestyle choices. We’ve been attacked before by the ‘zombie-dream slayers’.

We’ve been accused of not providing our children with a ‘stable’ life; of not preparing them for their future; of being beggars; vagrants; irresponsible.

We’ve been ‘advised’ to buy a house, get a job and put our kids into school : it’s what’s best for us. We all need some stability.

On the Road Again!

After a year and a half in Guatemala (where we had a wonderful time and purchased land and started a humanitarian project), we are FINALLY back on the road again.

Here's some of the most recent posts:

Great journey and thank you for sharing it.

Shame on the people who criticize. How one lives their life is a personal choice and no one elses business.
