Zombieland #2

The map below covers a road trip where Chrissy, Paul, Greg, and I felt is a suitable road experience paralleling the film Zombieland. We will utilize a Winnebago as our transportation across America. Most of our stops relate to a challenge we would have to confront in order to continue our journey to Disney World. Ultimately, our experiences will inevitably bond us together creating a new family-like bond between us all. Come join our thrilling adventure!

Steinbeckian Journey Across America

We want to take a journey together the way Steinbeck took his journey
in "Travels With Charley." We want to get a taste of different regions of America and learn what only the locals know. We want to check out cute little cafes,bars, churches, and festivals to get to know the “real America” in all its
diversity and quirkiness. We’ll be taking a van to fit all four of us along with our luggage and necessary camping gear to use at a few of our stops. The main idea is to have a relaxed but intentional journey where we make the stops that we planned from the beginning but enjoy the surprises and the
friendships with the people we meet that may occur along the way.

Group 1- Zombieland

Not only was the movie, Zombieland, hilarious, but its inner meanings were some of its greatest attributes too. Alex, Chris, Greg, and I decided to incorporate these themes into our own road trip that would promote, among several things, lasting friendships. Below is our complete set of planned route and destinations!

Thelma and Louise

In the spirit of Thelma and Louise, Amarah, Julie and I created a trip from Austin to Vegas and the Grand Canyon and back. This is our idea of the type of trip Thelma and Louise would have taken themselves had things not taken a bad turn at the beginning of the movie.

Travelin' Whitman Style

Below is the final map of a road trip we believe that Walt Whitman himself would take! After analyzing his well-known poem, "Song of the Open Road", Spencer, Jose, and I created our own version of a "Whitmanesque" journey. Check it out!

Thelma and Louise: Proposal

Our group is following the theme of “Thelma and Louise.” Our goal is to bring out the bonding and freedom/self-discovery while relating back to the movie. Our journey will start from Austin, Texas to Las Vegas, Nevada and then back to Austin, Texas. Our main point where we plan on spending the most time is going to be the Grand Canyon. We chose this route because we firstly wanted to start off from where we live now just like Thelma and Louise started off from where they lived and we chose the Grand Canyon as our main point because that is where Thelma and Louise finished (except we won’t stop there). Our goal of bonding relates to the movie because throughout the trip, both Thelma and Louise learned more about each other and became closer after going through so much. In our trip, Julie, Kim, and I will definitely bond because it is a long trip and we will get to know more about each other and we will all have stops where we will get a chance to bond with each other and do things that we all like to do. This trip will also give us a chance to escape from studies and let us have the freedom to explore, have fun, and choose a perfect spot to be ourselves. Throughout our trip, we are going to have many stops that will relate to such themes which were the major themes of “Thelma and Louise.”
