Night Bus Adventures! (Part One)

Perhaps the one thing I really don’t look forward to when I travel is taking the bus. And when that’s an overnight journey, well, it’s a recipe for no sleep, a crick in my neck and an extended period of being uncomfortable. South America beckons later on this year, and there will definitely be a …
