Greyhound buses
Slightly ashamed to admit, I actually did the opposite from everything my experienced friends had told me about public transportations and took a 9,5 hour long Greyhound bus ride between Kansas City and Minneapolis the other day. And needless to say, I encountered some of the most interesting people on that bus.
Imagine a cow boy with an accent so weird not even the Americans would understand him. Then add some white trash, a few gangsta dudes, a few Mexicans, some black guys, an Amish couple, a hippie that slept the whole way and a really funny bus driver. That was my company that day.
And honestly, I had a blast with those people.
