Picture of the Day - Jack Kerouac's Stuff

After I'd been traveling a while I had more and more people tell me I reminded them of Jack Kerouac and that I should read "On the Road", and I eventually did read it. While passing through New York City the public library had a pretty big exhibit about him, including 40 feet worth of the original scroll from "On the Road". This case shows some of the stuff he carried around.

I designed the BivyPack, which transforms between a backpack and a bivy tent while weighing less than 1lb. Now you can get your own, it ships to anywhere in the world.

I also wrote a fun book called A Six-Pack of Hitchhiking Stories which you can get on Amazon.
