1. Potential land to purchase for future site of eco lodge.
(e.g. 40 acres jungle on a river 3 hr from main airport)

2. Potential setting and space to lease for small business.
(e.g. Empty garage near tourist hub becomes cafe / lounge.)

3. Potential area for Cameron, Matthew, and possibly Brad to live in while financial means are secured by San Francisco Team.
(e.g. A pleasant beach side town with opportunities for english teachers.)

• Around September 11 Cameron reports back to San Francisco with his search results.  Plans are made for Matthew and possibly Brad to rondevu in location type 3 or possibly  type 2.
