The “Ultimate Road Trip”

The Chicago Sun-Times has an update from the man who is driving around the world. Formerly an art director for the Associated Press, Nicolas Rapp decided to quit his job in 2009 and see if he could drive around the world in a year. He just finished the first leg, from New York to Argentina. Of the 13,000-mile journey, Rapp says, “it was just like driving to work, except that I kept on going.” Next, he will ship his car to Africa and continue driving north to Europe and then east to Asia.
