Going to Argentina
Posted July 5th, 2007 by Toni Petri...
Gloria, your Heavenletter news excited Philip and me very much. All we need to do is get the Land Cruiser in shipshape and off we go to join you in your wonderful, inspiring, God-directed trip. The Land Cruiser has made that trip once already and knows the way. Santhan, I am sure you already know that you need to buy a motor home with lots of ground clearance!!! Let us know your route so we can start thinking, feeling, planning more intently.
Loving you all,

Dearest Toni,
The things we don't know!
Your coming along in your Land Cruiser sounds great, though I will have to look up to see what a Land Cruiser actually is! Is it a motor home?
The intention had been that you come into the motor home Santhan finds and live with us along the way! No objection to a caravan, of course!
You can be a great asset to the planning of this trip. Will you kindly tell us more?
I know you live in Washington State. How far is that from Mount Shasta?
Blessings and love,
Gloria
Gloria, the Land Cruiser is
Gloria, the Land Cruiser is a Toyota built SUV type vehicle. They also make Land Cruisers that are motor homes and very sturdy which will be something you will want to take into account since it is important to be able to make repairs along the way.
This Land Cruiser has made the trip from WA state to the islands off Chile - particularly Tierra del Frego and Philip purchased it from the people who made that trip. Both of us have traveled extensively and spent a good deal of time in *third world* countries over the years. We are very comfortable at looking at the various aspects of this type of travel.
Philip tells me that Mercedes also makes a motor home that can be repaired nearly anywhere along route.
Mt. Shasta is 635 miles from where we live on Lopez Island. It is an 11 hour trip - quite easy.
Let us know what assistance you would like in the planning and we are very glad to help. Caravaning along with you would be a deLight!
In the One Heart,
Toni
I read the Heaven News and I
I read the Heaven News and I loved that the motor home will be on bio-diesel fuel! That's great news!
I also didn't fail to notice that Santhan will probably give cooking classes and that you will be visiting the famous Mt. Shasta! Wow! God is leading your steps...You're gonna have a great time!
Beloved Toni, I am sure we
Beloved Toni, I am sure we wll be calling on you for assistance! What general advice do you have to give us in addition to the ground clearance?
Will you really caravan with us? Do you know we're thinking of taking three months for the road trip as we give workshops along the way?!!
Gloria and all, this is a
Gloria and all, this is a test to see if using a new *name* lets me post.
Love to all,
Toni
I'm so glad your new name
I'm so glad your new name worked! Now, what were you going to tell us!
Dearest Gloria, More
Dearest Gloria, More mechanical considerations: We do not know what age vehicle you are going to be buying so you want to make sure that parts are available in route. Older vehicles break down easier and faster than newer ones (usually) under the pressure of long trips. You also want to make sure that less quality gasoline or diesel will burn in the vehicle because some of the routes will only sell fuel of questionable quality. Also think of width and height limitations since some of the countries will not have overpass restrictions or notifications. Perhaps Santhan can scope this out from his end?
Are you planning on taking the Pan American hwy the whole way or dipping off here and there? That will probably tell you alot about what you might or might not expect.
The Cruiser's original trip that I mentioned before took 9 months so 3 months is only down; there is also back to consider (for us - not you). We are aware of the time this will take. Since Philip and I are our own keepers, so to speak, we can arrange the time to fit into our lives.
I love the synchronicity of Heidi's desires that have come up as well. Also, the couple in Costa Rica. I spent two weeks in Costa Rica on the east coast in 2003 living among the people there and had an absolutely marvelous, mystical time with the volcanoes and the terrain. It is a sight to behold AND the Light Orbs love it!

Your input adds to my
Your input adds to my anticipation of this trip! I seem to be more focused on the trip itself than on the actual move to Argentina! love the idea of a gradual entry into my new life rather than a direct flight to Argentina. And I love the idea of traveling with dear friends.
Santhan will definitely research everything. And everything you write is helpful. He is
on his way to South Africa right now, so it will be a while before he can respond here. .
Out of the goodness of her heart, Michelle made a sizeable financial investment for each of us -- Santhan, me, and Michelle. When this investment comes true (cross your fingers!), we can buy a really good used motor home and have plenty left over for the spiritual center. Keith, my son-in-law, says we have to have a turbo push diesel.
Santhan has mentioned our visiting the totally white desert of Chile, so I imagine we will really be doing sightseeing and lots of taking photos in addition to giving workshops.
Your nine-month trip really makes our three-month one seem short!
Gloria, good to hear from
Gloria, good to hear from you and feel your anticipation. Philip and I are doing some research on others' experience with regard to *RVing* on the Pan American highway. Back with more information soon.
After reading the reply from Anthem AZ ~ it shouldn't be an issue since the trip will most likely cross the border at Nagoles Mexico unless the plan is to ferry to Baja from CA. So, meeting folks in AZ should be a cinch!
BTW, I put my picture into my account with my signature yet it didn't pop here. Will give it a different go ~

Congrats Gloria! What a
Congrats Gloria! What a great move and what an exciting way to get there. We did something similar and moved to lovely Costa Rica (from Canada) a year ago....without the drive, that is.
Anyways, keep us informed of your itinerary and we can arrange something, if only meeting for a lunch and a visit, here in the central valley of Costa Rica. We are quite close to the capital, San José.
Con amor,
Lyall and Isabelle
Lyall and Isabelle, that is
Lyall and Isabelle, that is fantastic! Will you tell us more about your life in Costa Rica?
Was the change easy? What do you most like? Include photos!
Now I would like to announce that it seems like we have two more passengers for the divine motor trip to Argentina!
There is Santhan, of course, and there is I.
Now there is Michelle from Minden, Nevada. Michelle sponsored a Godwriting workshop in her beautiful Sacred Circle Center. She is a lightworker of many gifts, not the least of which is the ability to make me laugh! She has a long list of techniques that she offers. If you don't already know Michelle, find out more about her on the blog:
http://www.godwriting.org/purely-personal/minden-nevada-godwriting-works...
http://www.godwriting.org/godwriting-workshops/dazzling-workshop-gods-pr...
And now a fourth blessing! Heidi. Marvelously, Heidi has been planning to build a Center of Light on the very mountain in Argentina where Santhan has been planning to build his Spirit Becoming Human Center! How could such synchronicity happen!
Heidi found us through Robert Fitzgerald, a subscriber and author of The Signs of the Times. Thank you, Robert.
To give you an idea of Heidi:
"I play many instruments....Indian Mradungum, Harmonium, bass
guitar....I played in many Reggae bands in the 80's and early 90's, I
sing a little, and one of my favorite instruments that really attunes
the Spirit with the earth is the Didgeridoo.....I have had the pleasure
of giving cultural enrichment classes to children, and adults!
"I hope to gather with other players and create a conscious Invocation
of Spirit, with many people drumming and playing bell bowls, having all
of the element in the center, and rejoice in the harmony with all
beings.....you truly inspire my creative Self. I can't thank you enough,
Gloria, Santhan, and Michelle."
And there is more to tell about Michelle and Heidi, and I will ask them to tell us more right here on this forum.
This move to Argentina is getting more and more exciting!
YES!!! Gloria!!!!! I WILL
YES!!! Gloria!!!!! I WILL participate in the Heaven Community Forum and GodWriting Blog "sometime" (?), "when" OUR "AUTHOR" signals "GO" !!!! But equally, I have been being made to "get ready"..... "get set"....... Thank YOU! for your response. I/We thank God for this opportunity with You! xoxoxoxoxo JulieAnna and Jeremy Miller Anthem, AZ
WELL!!! I guess this is "GO"!!! So... in reguard to your inquiry as to whether Anthem AZ is enroute to Mt. Shasta from Iowa: I would have to ask, "Does it matter if it is a DIRECT route??? As "the crow flys", Anthem (Arizona, for that matter), is considerabley south (and a bit east) from the more direct Shasta route, (presuming one were going to take Interstate 80 straight across). But, if YOU were asking, because perhaps you were hinting at the possiblilties of a meeting "en route", WE SAY "YES"!!! Even if we were not "en route". So, consider this YOUR OFFICIAL INVITATION, if and/or when, the moment avails itself, and if we can, we certainly would enjoy the opportunity! xoxoxo JulieAnna and Jeremy Miller
Wonderful! Santhan is the
Wonderful! Santhan is the navigator. It's all in the thought stage now. Let's see what happens. I sure like thinking about meeting you two and many other Heaven subscribers along the way. Maybe there's somewhere where you can come to that is not too far from you as well. Post your photos, will you?
In fact, I would love to see everyone's photo up here on the forum!
With love and blessings,
Gloria
Gloria, take a look at
Gloria, take a look at www.movingon1.com for a great diary of a trip on the Pan American highway in an RV.
Also, we told a friend of ours on Lopez Island about the trip to Argentina. His name is Jeffrey Stonehill and HE is planning a trip to Argentina in November as well ~ a one way trip wherein he will sell his vehicle, engage a string of horses and guides and spend months living in the land with the people. He is a consummate artist - sings, creates plays and acts. He especially loves working with children and wants to create a children's band. He teaches Spanish, French, Italian and Chinese and speaks several other languages including Portugese. So, he is VERY excited about joining the caravan rather than going alone though he has traveled all over the world by himself.
Telling Jeffrey about the trip was very synchronistic because we simply sat down in a coffeehouse here and he was also sitting there and we began talking in general. The trip came up and he simply remarked casually that he was already going that way in November. When were we planning on going, he wanted to know!
Plans are in the making and Philip and I are doing a lot of research to know more of the *in's and out's* in 2007.
Jeffrey will be going to your website to learn more about your wonderful work!
Much love,
Toni

Dear Toni, you are a gold
Dear Toni, you are a gold mine! You sure gave us a nugget of a blog with
www.movingon1.com One of the most fun things I've ever read. I was laughing out loud.
How do I get in touch with Jeffrey Stonehill?
This is getting more and more exciting! The excitement keeps rising! And you and Philip are really really moving in the direction of coming too! Yippee! I can hardly sit still!
If Jeffrey is going to sell his vehicle when he gets to Argentina, why don't we combine resources and travel together? This is what popped into my head!
And, God knows, I need to learn Spanish.
Santhan has just flown to South Africa. I expect we'll hear from him soon.
Toni, thank you so much.
Gloria, first, I want to
Gloria, first, I want to give credit where credit is due ~ Philip is the one who found the *movingon* website. He loves to research. I simply type faster than he does.
Jeffrey Stonehill's email address, so far as we know, is stonehilljeffrey [at] yahoo [dot] com and his phone number is 360.468.3709.
I believe Jeffrey wants to sell his vehicle to locals in Argentina. He drives an old van that was being used for deliveries on the island. Though he seems to be pretty intent on driving it and selling it, you can surely talk with him about traveling together and see what he says. I could be incorrect. He certainly could be the *official* Spanish bard among us.
So give him a buzz. We have synchronistically run into him every day this week!!!!

Querida Gloria, You
Querida Gloria,
You mentioned in your E-mail to me that you are learning Spanish. It is a relatively easy language to learn, I think.
I'm told that the "Rosetta Stone" www.rosettastone.com
language method is good, easy and fun but........... very pricy.
Have fun learning.
Cariños y abrazos,
Xenia
Dear Toni, there is
Dear Toni, there is something called fixity of purpose, and we've got that solid. I can hardly wait for the adventure. Of course, time goes fast, and it will be November before we know it.
Had a beautiful email from your friend Jeffrey. He may well join us. Other people have come forward. We sure want you and Philip to caravan with us! Is the Land Cruiser in shape!! I think we are going to have the time of our lives, Toni.
When Santhan gets to the U.S., he will manifest a motor home.
Meanwhile, I have a lot of stuff in my house to move out, and I'm trying to figure out what to take to use on the motor trip, and what to take for Argentina. Decisions!
You read Heaven News? There have been beautiful offers to host workshops in Santa Barbara and Escondido, California.
Thanks for asking, Toni!
With love and blessings,
Gloria
