Whats it all about?

We're Brad and Jana Collin and this is all about getting back to our roots as the nomadic couple that we became together.

Join us as we begin our adventure by truck from California to Panama.

Karma Patrol- find a traveller in need and lend a hand.

As hurricane Alma began to make her way towards Costa Rica's Pacific Coast we decided that we needed one more trip to the beach to rest our landlocked souls. Passing through San Isidro we saw a VW bus being worked on by what appeared to be Gringos with British Colombia plates.


Enter Moreno and Ashley. These two are on their way from BC through South America and had not stopped to rest for the majority of their trip. With the weather coming and their van in questionable condition we decided that it would be best to offer our drive way at the finca as a resting spot for them. Under one condition, feed the animals.

Two days later the two showed up drenched to the bone but with a running van. Apparently they had not recieved the news that a tropical storm was in full affect. Assuming that this sort of torrential downpour was normal, Moreno worked on the van lying in a river of run off while the city closed down and 28 houses fell into the river.

With cultural immersion on the agenda, Ashley and Moreno made it to the finca just in time for some serious finca fun.
