April 11, 2005A TRUE BADASS WITH BALLS OF STEEL!!!
OK, so I met this Swiss guy in Merrida, Venezuela. He is 37 and was a mechanical engineer in Swissland. He quite his job and flew to Vancouver, Canada where he bought this old toyota turcell. He has driven it from Vancouver all over the USA, then through mexico and central america. In Panama he paid $500 USD to have his car brought to Colombia, since their is no road connection colombia and panama. He had been traveling and sleeping in his car for the past 10 months. When i met him he was on his way back to colombia, since he didnt want to drive to brazil. He had lots of interesting stories, and was a real insperation. By far one of the most interesting people i have ever met. here is a pic of him with his car. Notice the license plate....Beautiful British Colombia. Comments |
