Hello,

        My name is Jonas, I am an American Citizen, a father, a "Honorably Discharged Veteran " from the U.S. Army. I also worked as a paralegal, as well as an pharmacy technician, flight medic, a Federal Air Marshal and finally a Police Officer at the University of Maryland. I retired 2014, at which time (realizing that it was impossible to live on $999.00 in America) I moved to Texas and became the Captain of Operations for a prison transportation company.  This job got me traveling, I literally set foot in every state and territory in less then one year.  I then decided to fulfill my dream of learning where my family came from. This what brought me to Africa.  Two of my major hurdles are transportation and housing. 

This is what brings me to you. I would love to be able to buy a motorcycle for the transportation yes, I travel light two large duffel bags. It would also help if I did not have stay in a country for 30 days waiting on the pennies I live on.

    I humbly ask the you give anything you can it looks I will have to have the motorcycle shipped from America.  After doing much research and adding the with my training knowledge and experience. As well as the quotes I have received on used motorcycles my goal is $568.99.

 I would like thank you in advance,  for your help.
