Hi,

Me and my boyfriend (we are from Holland) are doing it right now. After 5 months of traveling by public transport through South america, we got fed up with it and wanted our own wheels. We flew from Peru to San Diego and bought an old Volkswagen campervan. After more than a month driving through Mexico, we are now in Guatamala (most of the driving is on the panamerican). Its great. I am not sure what kind of information you want. But I can certainly stay in touch with you and let you know how things are going.

You might want to read the book "99 Days to Panama" about a couple who drove from Texas to Panama and back with their dog in a small RV. Have a great trip!

Happy trails...

Hi,

First of all, I just became member of this site...still exploring ,and it looks great!

I am actually going for the first time in my life on a tour. I will be starting in LA and leaving from Buenos Aires, in 5 months. I just read some people do take the car to cross a lot of the way...

I would like to stay in contact with ppl who are actually planning to cross the american-mexican border around the 27th of december, to catch a lift until Mexico-City, and later even until Panama...please stay in contact, thnx
