PJ Chmiel is a graphic designer who is touring a big chunk of the Eastern and Southern United States (and a little bit of Canada) on his beloved scooter Ramblin' Man. He's keeping a very detailed and interesting travel journal but even more interesting are the thousands of pictures he's posting to Flickr. He photographs things he finds interesting along the way, hostels and motels he's stayed in, people he's met on his journey. It's a great big slice of "This American Life" and I'm loving every frame of it.

He doesn't always have an internet connection so he uploads in bulk when he can. That means not every thing is titled, tagged and labeled but he's working on it and the images are well worth looking at even if you don't know specifically what town in Vermont or South Carolina or Louisiana they came from.
