Santiago oddities/curiosidades:

Español
Llevando el pensamiento ecologico mas alla
Se te ha ocurrido alguna vez plantear un arbol en el asiento de atras de tu auto?
- No, me parezco a un plantador de arboles a ti? podrias estar contestando.
En todo caso, el dueño de este Volkswagen penso distinto. Quiza el o ella cree que puede anular la contaminacion del vehiculo con el arbol!
Por lo que me dicen el van se ve en movimiento de vez en cuando y el arbol esta creciendo!
Viva esta improbable union y la mente libre que la concibio!

English
Taking ecological thinking one step further
Have you ever thought of planting a tree in the backseat of your car?
- Of course not, what kind of a tree-planting person do you think I am, you might be responding.
Well, the owner of this Volkswagen thought differently. Perhaps he or she believes the tree cancels the contamination caused by the vehicle!
From what I´m told the van is seen in motion now and then and the tree is growing!
Long live this unlikely union and the free mind who concieved it!

Window sticker says: "Prototype for a better life #1"

I have never thought of planting a tree in the backseat of my car, but then plant don't grow well for me. Although maybe if I planted them in the backseat of my car maybe they would.

What kind of other things could you grow in the back of that car one wonders? I would go for a robust set of tobacco plants.

As I would say in swedish: "soil your pants". But lately I've been informed by the swedish consulate that this statement is percieved as "hostile" when used in an english "context". So I'll stick with "How's the cat?".

On second thought...
That sticker should say: "I hate underpasses".

How about:
"If you tell the cops, they´ll think you´ve been drinking."

or

"Prototype to inspire new traffic regulations."
