GEO METRO> 1994, bought from original owner, with 128xxx miles. Everything seemed to be in perfect condition, what a great car! It looked brand new, God had blessed me again. until, I noticed that the air vent wouldn't go up and down, you know the little guy that blows cool/ or in my case, warm air on you? well, I got a little over excited and tried to fix it with brute force. BOOM. broke the outlining trim. stared at the broken trim for days. what was I going to do..... well, this little incident helped span my now going processes of tearing apart my once brand new looking car, leaving only the drivers seat and converting the rest into a bed/house/camper in hopes that I will be living out of it in the near future in Puerto Rico.   I may take the car into the Dominican Republic as well.

 Now, Heres where the story gets interesting. . with that being said now starts the preparations. I am getting braver every day and every dollar saved. First thing on my list is to Tint all the windows black as law allows and also put real 13 inch tires on mi carro blanco. (its a white car, good for sunny climates)  So as of today Friday October 18, 2013. the plan is realized from working 12 hour shifts in a warehouse in Portland Oregon. cold wet ugly muggy Portland Oregon. sunny warm beachy Spanish Puerto Rico. get the picture? hmm :)

 COST= $800 to ship from florida. also-
$500 to drive from Washington state to florida. going though cali and staying close to mexico!
window tint -$200 new tires -$200
conversion to super geo camper $50.
$300 plane ticket to Puerto rico
 plus I will need about $ 500 for give and take and also for startup/gas money in Puerto Rico, where I will find job (possible) and live there (also possible) because this is a one way plan so far.

So as you can see this is a bare bones structure that I threw together just tonight and with time We will see what happens from here.
I may end up living permantly for a period in PR or if success allows and this becomes a popular thing, I may continue the project by doing a living in Hawaii series and also a PAN America series where I drive all the way to the panama canal and have my car shipped 300 miles and meet in Columbia to finish the southbound journey!!!!. We will see what fate allows! and by that I mean What Jesus allows. I love you jesus ;P)
