Three Cent Bullet

Description

Just over four years ago I took a three month solo trip around the US, traveling mainly by Greyhound, and once back in Australia I compiled a few doodles from my travel diary into a little photocopied, hand-stitched zine. I'd forgotten all about it until my mum recently mailed me an old copy she'd found. The drawings make me cringe a little (okay, more than a little), but it's nice to have a record of what was a pretty formative episode in my life.

All quotes were taken down almost verbatim. Some were condensed, but none were enhanced or embroidered in any way. 

Sorry for the quality, this is like a scan of a photocopy of a photocopy of a pretty beaten-up, beer-stained notebook.

It's a class in characterization. What a fantastic way to document a travel. 

Also, greyhound buses are a fantastic place to gather bits of people's lives for future use. I haven't ridden in one for a long time.
