Reply to All SunMan, I think we talked about this before. We know Chapin from Newport Beach, Ca "our home town." My husband Dorian surfed around him alot. We saw them there when we visited. Small world huh! Where do you plan on visiting next? DLN, Thanks for your support. I hope you...

to SunMan Hi SunMan, We were not there at that time. What a beautiful place Gigante is huh! Did you meet Dale Dagger? Where did you stay? Did you surf or fish? Angelina

I have posted here many times before but I would like to share with those of you who have not heard our story. My husband and I drove our 4 wheel camper across Mexico into Central America to Costa Rica. We traveled for six months and lived in our camper. This was a life changing experience...

SunMan, We are not staying at Big Foot although Dorian did grow up with the guy managing it in Newport Beach, Ca. Small world huh We are staying at Dale Dagger's surf lodge. He is a well-known gringo in Nicaragua who was actually shipwrecked on Gigante in the 70's. There wasn't even any...

Response for Mark W. Ingalls post Mark W. Ingalls, The answer to your questions are actually compicated... Money We Stashed We moved to Central America. We are not going back to the States therefore, we sold almost everything we owned. We lived in a family owned house and now we are...

We did not make it to Sempuc Champey or Gruta Lanquin in Guatemala. We are definately going back there within the year. I love Guatemala! We have been in Nicaragua for two months now. Dorian is working here. We are going to Costa Rica to live for the dry season in a week.

Great Trip! Incredible! . Your pictures are beautiful. What a great trip. We found our used camper on http://www.craigslist.com

Jay, Are you driving or flying to Panama?? There is a safer way to drive. We thought we were taking a short cut when we drove through the craziest road in Guatemala.

Jim and Brian, Thanks for your support guys. We had a mind changing experience driving here. I don't ever want to live in the states again. So cool Brian that you traveled through Mexico and some of Central America. Did you visit any Maya Pyramids? So amazing. Check out our post on...

Our rig El Grande Rojo went through six countries in four months. We are still going to be traveling through Costa Rica and Panama. If you are interested check out our blog. Click on the months on the right side of the page to see our previous posts. Mainland Mexico including the Yucatan...

Hi Chnlisle, It is good to hear from you. Our blog has so many pictures so check it out. http://betweenamericas.blogspot.com We met another camper couple in Nicaragua that has visited this site. They had read our El Grande Rojo posts. What a small world it is. pura vida Angelina...

Hi Four Wheel Camper friends. This is Angelina. Some of you may remember me posting a million posts 6 months ago when Dorian and I were fixing up our old used 4wc to drive it across Central America. The advice we got from our 4wc friends helped us make it through our journey. Well we made...

I am jealous. Say hi to Mother Nature for me.

Warm Beer Sucks We don't plan on leaving when the propane goes out expecially if the waves are good. I am a vegetarian I hardly even need a fridge, but warm beer does suck in the scorching heat. Just defrost the fridge and finish out our stay wherever. It is definately a luxury. I will...

good idea Dave, but we dont want to drain our battery with the fridge. Although propane is a hassle and dangerous it lasts a long time and therefore we will be able to stay on a deserted beach longer. I did look into those, pretty cool fridges. We hope to be able to stay wherever for as...

Thanks Rick Hi Rick, I would love your used vents. No need in getting new ones if yours work great. I don't care much about if there stained we will just blend in more down south. May I ask your reason for wanting to take them out and have no refridgerator.. I appreciate the offer. Let...

Hi Ben and Marty, I was wondering if you have the vents to install the refridgerator, or know where I can buy them. I can't find them for sale anywhere in the US. The lower and upper dometic vents to attach to the ouside of the camper. L100 and L200. We want to install our dometic...

I have done the major patch work on the canvas. My windows still leak even on light rain. I have the old inside windows but overall my canvas is shot. I'm sur the gray canvas works much better. It makes me think of getting an alaskan camper so I wouldn't have to worry about the canvas, but...

That's funny you said that because our homemade awning system won't be much more sophisticated. That project will be interesting. haha

we will have one made for us Thanks for the advice. We definately want to keep our sink. I will look into having a tank made for our dimensions soon. I would just get water everywhere with a basin.. Im laughing just thinking about how bad Dorian would be. That is pretty resourceful though.

Hi guys, I appreciate your advice. Everything mentioned luckily we have allready taken a precaution for. I like that you mention it just in case though. Well except for our rig Dorian and I are rather dark. People sometimes think we are from Italy, with a dark tan we could blend in a...

Thanks everyone. Dorian comes up with some crazy ideas sometimes. haha We are going with the hitch cargo carrier and saying screw the extra extra tire.

Thanks for posting pictures Brian.. Your rig looks great. We are stealing your idea and purchased our own hitch cargo carrier. We are going to have a taller steel storage box on the right up to our window probably. Our door swings out opposite. We are also gonna keep our Jerry cans on it...
